2.Your TS3-16 at a glance
The TS3-16 has been designed to provide high-speed data transfer to USB compliant devices
without being constrained by endpoint limits.
The TS3-16 can charge attached USB devices without using a local computer. The TS3-16 allows
almost any device to be charged at its optimum rate (up to 2.4أ.(The firmware can be up-dated
to ensure the TS3-16 can charge the latest devices. It is ready to charge out-of-the-box and to
sync devices when attached to a host computer.
When a local (host) computer is attached the host can control the operation of each individual
port using software provided by Cambrionix. Device charging and synchronisation can be
monitored through Cambrionix’s LiveViewer Application, the Application Programming
Interface (API) or Command Line Interface (CLI). Cambrionix’s free monitoring and control
software can be downloaded from www.cambrionix.com/products/api
With your TS3-16 there is a Thunderbolt™ connection to the host which is capable of up to
40Gbps, meaning your upstream speeds to the host will be capable of this data transfer rate.
The upstream data transfer rate will be shared amongst the downstream 16ﺬﻔﻨﻣUSB 3.2ﻦﻣ

5.Using your TS3-16
In this section you can find information information on how to use your hub in a charge only or
a charge and sync application. You can also find information on managing your hub and
changing port modes, connecting multiple hubs to one host and using Cambrionix Software.
5.0.1LED Configuration
Your TS3-16 has inbuilt LEDs used to show the state of the ports or devices. These LEDs can be
configured to support your own use case, this can be controlled either by using the APIto send
commands directly or through separate software.
The default LED behaviour of the hub is below.
ColourBehaviour
Flashing RedPort is in charge mode and is profiling the device
RedPort is in charge mode and is charging
YellowPort is in sync mode and has a host connection
Green
Port is in charge mode and the device has reached the
charged threshold
5.1.Using without connecting to host
When the Hub is switched on and is not connected to a local host computer it is
automatically configured to charge devices using its intelligent charging algorithm. Simply
connect the devices to be charged to any of the available ports (not the Host Port) using
USB - compliant cables.
Once the devices are connected, the algorithm will detect the highest charge rate allowable for
each attached device. Charging at the optimum rate (up to 2.4أ(specified by the manufacturer
will commence once profiling is complete. Depending on the state of charge of the device
attached, this may take tens of seconds.

5.2.3Charging
When the Host Port is connected to a local computer, the hub defaults to Sync mode and
charge currents are determined according to USB Implementers Forum (USBIF) Super-Speed
USB3 specifications. If the attached device complies with USB-IF Battery Charging
specification BC1.2 and supports Charging Downstream Port (CDP), the hub can provide
high-speed charging at up to 2.4أ.If the connected device does not comply with BC1.2, the
charge current will be limited to 900ﻲﻠﻠﻣﺮﻴﺒﻣأin compliance with USB specifications.
If you wish to limit the charging to your devices whilst connected to your host system then you
can disable CDPon all ports by inputting the following commands.
The CLI commands for turning off the sync charg options, with a 1 or 0 per port.
settings_unlock
settings_reset
settings_set sync_chrg 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
settings_set alt_sync_chrg 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
reboot
This can also be done via the API if this is easier. Just supply that string (joined with \n) like:
cbrxapi.cbrx_connection_set(handle, "Settings", "settings_unlock\nsettings_reset\nsettings_
set sync_chrg 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0\nsettings_set alt_sync_chrg 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0\nreboot("
Note that settings_reset clears any previous settings, so if you need to retain something else, it
would be better to issue settings_display first, which gives you the entire settings which you
can then modify and re-issue in entirity.
5.2.4Data Transfer
If you wish to transfer data, change applications, restore or update your mobile device, a data
connection to a local host computer is required. The hub is compatible with macOS®,
Windows™ and Linux® operating systems and can transfer data between these operating
systems and many mobile operating systems such as iOS™ and Android.™
In order to transfer data, connect the host port to your local (host) computer using a
Thunderbolt™ 3 compliant cable. Any devices connected to the hub will now appear as if they
were connected to the host computer’s USB port.

5.4.Manage Ports & Your TS3-16
Each port on your TS3-16 can be managed either individually or all together. You can turn the
ports off and on, change the port mode or change the charging profiles. This can be done either
through LiveViewer or by connecting to the hub via the API.
5.4.1Port Modes
Charge
Turn specific ports or the whole hub to charge only mode (no data
channels open only power(
Sync

To update the firmware first go to the firmware updater section of LiveViewer. Here you can
see the available Firmware versions available to download and install to the hub. To download
a firmware file click on the version under the "downloadable firmware updates" section. once
downloaded it will appear in the "Available firmware files" section.
The current firmware version on the hub is displayed in the firmware updater section alongside
the hubs name. This will appear red if a newer version is available or green if it is the most up to
date.

The TS3-16 uses string commands to communicate with the host system. These can be sent via
the virtual serial port of the TS3-16 directly, or the API can be used to provide other protocols
that sends translated string commands. LiveViewer can use the API to interact with the devices
through a user friendly application.
There are three different channels for both our LiveViewer application and the API. The three
channels are Alpha/ Beta and Release. We would recommend using the release version of both
the APIand LiveViewer.
We will push bug fixes and any updates through Alpha and then onto Beta before it is merged
into the Release version. If you have found a bug that we have a fix for, the Alpha and Beta
releases may already have addressed these and implemented fixes.
5.5.1Installing-Software
Cambrionix has 2 pieces of software which can be used to manage the devices and your hub
using different host systems. In this section we have instructions and information on using our
software on 3 of the most popular host systems.

5.5.2LiveViewer
LiveViewer is an Application that can be downloaded from
www.cambrionix.com/products/liveviewer . Once downloaded and installed on the host
computer, LiveViewer allows you to switch the ports on and off, set the port to charge only, or
to sync mode. LiveViewer’s home page shows the following information about all the ports:
•Status (attached/disconnected(
•Mode (Charge/Sync/Off(
•Profile (Charging profile(
•Duration (how long the device has been attached(
•End time (time the battery reaches a threshold (full) level(
•Current (instantaneous charge current in mA(
•Energy (present energy rate(
Tick boxes adjacent to each port symbol allow that port mode to be changed. When the port is
in Sync mode, only instantaneous current can be monitored through LiveViewer. When the port
is in Charge mode, the charge profile, instantaneous current, energy rate, duration of charge
and end time are displayed. In addition to individual port information and control, LiveViewer
displays the hub rail voltages, time since switched on, total instantaneous current and power,
and temperature. Further information on LiveViewer is available on our website.

5.5.3Cambrionix API
Cambrionix API allows you to monitor and control each port in more detail and to integrate
these functions into your own workflow processes. The API comprises a daemon that can be
downloaded from www.cambrionix.com/products/api and installed on the host machine. Port
information and control can be provided through the API using JavaScript Object Notation
(JSON) Remote Procedure Calls (RPC) over TCP. JSON-RPC calls send a request to the API to
“Get” port, device or Hub information, or “Set” port functions (such as mode). A library of
sample Python code can be obtained from www.cambrionix.com/products/api to help you
integrate many of these functions into your process workflow alongside the full User Guide.
5.5.4Updating Software
By using LiveViewer you will be able to automatically download and install the most up to date
software (LiveViewer and the Cambrionix API(
By going into the settings section on the left hand side of LiveViewer you can navigate to the
general tab and under this can see the options for keeping both LiveViewer and the APIup to
date.
