[App_rpt-users] toggling power on USB buss

[Geoff]

I'm seeing info here and there on whether power cycling a USB device
(without shutting down the whole system) is possible or not.

On occasion, I have the need to physically walk into the repeater room
and check to see if the lights are blinking on the URIx's, because
sometimes they -stop-.  (Damnit, Jim - I a radio operator, not a URIx
heartbeat cardiologist ;->).

My quick and dirty thought would be to find a way to discover, via
software, whether or not a specific URIx had a green-blinking light and
if not, power-cycle that usb device.

Anyone have an idea on this?
