Tony,

These don't have extenders or hubs, direct to the USB ports in the back of the 
WP.  It happened using both the regular and high-speed ports.  One of them has 
a USB isolator and it also experienced the problem.  In the past it was rare to 
have to push/pull one, it happens sometimes on stations with a Remote Graphics 
Unit.

Thanks,  

Roger Smith

Roger,
Our control rooms use the trackballs and we have not had issues with them. On a 
rare occasion we will have to push/pull the USB and it works again, but this is 
not very often. We do tend to buy new ones with computer upgrades every 3-4 
years. Is it directly to the machine or is through the USB extender with the 
hub? We have more often had to either push/pull the keyboard/mouse/trackball or 
pull power from the hub and re-power. 

Thanks,
Tony

Hello List,
Yesterday during a startup from an outage, we had an experience where an 
operator was operating from 3 different Workstations (Win 7, I/A 9.1, FV 10.4). 
 Several times on each WP the Foxboro approved trackball would stop moving the 
mouse pointer.  Push/pull of the USB plug would get it started again.  There 
was very high usage of the WP's at the time.  Just wondering if anyone else has 
seen something like this?

Thanks,

Roger Smith
