Supported USB LED Devices
Any 5V single-light USB LED device is supported. The program controlling the LED is generic and only controls the voltage supplied to the USB port.
The IOX-WRKS device can light up any LED lamp attached to the USB Host wire of its wiring harness.
Troubleshooting
I don’t see any light at all, and I expect to.
It will be one of these scenarios:
- There might be no power getting to the IOX-WRKS. If there are no lights on the GO device, fix that first. Only after all 3 lights are on the GO: red, green, and blue, does the IOX-WRKS function. If that is ok, then
- Unplug the Mini-USB cable from the GO device, then plug back in again and make sure it is seated well. It also helps to wrap a zip strap tie around it. If that doesn’t fix it, then
- The USB LED Light itself might be faulty. Try replacing your USB LED lamp with a different one. Also, the Dollar Store has USB charging cables that light up. Those ones seem to be more reliable than the little reading lights.
- If needed, replace the cable coming from the IOX-WRKS, with a new one, that plugs into the GO device.
- If nothing above works, then you might need a new IOX-WRKS device.
