    Cambrionix Command Line Interface (CLI) User Manual

    November 11, 2021

    Just because you use complex technology, it doesn’t mean you want complex user manuals to decipher. We are always looking for ways to simplify and streamline our support resources. And it makes life as easy as possible for the people using our products.

    Therefore we have combined our CLI manuals into a single unified document and made it easier to navigate the command set. After that, additional information and explanations have also been added to make our CLI easier to follow and use to control our USB hubs.

    Cambrionix team updates the CLI User Manual regularly to reflect the latest documentation updates and feature enhancements to the command instruction set.

    Most importantly, we would recommend downloading the manual as required to get the most up to date information.

    We need you

    Sometimes you need to take a step back to see the bigger picture. As a result it really helps to get your perspective on what we do.

    We continually welcome suggestions for improvement to our documentation. For instance, be that further examples or more detailed explanation of functionality and are always ready to listen.

    If you would like to share any suggestions for improvement, please let us know via our Support Desk.

    Your turn

    Our engineers and developers are always busy, but to make sure we’re working on the stuff that’s important to YOU, we’d appreciate your feedback.

    Let us know if you’ve got a bright idea about new features, or want to talk through an issue you’ve uncovered – leave us feedback.

    Q&A

    • Why can't SQA teams rely on simulators alone?

      Simulators cannot reproduce real-world hardware behaviours, OEM-specific differences, biometric flows, camera and performance constraints, or network variability. Final validation of any software release must run on physical devices to confirm it behaves correctly across the full range of devices your users own.

    • What causes device dropouts during automated testing?

      Device dropouts during automated testing are most commonly caused by USB infrastructure that cannot sustain the combined data and power demands of large device fleets under heavy workloads. Consumer-grade USB 2 and USB 3 hubs lack the bandwidth, stability, and power delivery capability required for enterprise-scale SQA environments. Purpose-built solutions with Thunderbolt architecture and intelligent Power Delivery eliminate this problem.

    • How does AI development affect real-device testing requirements?

      AI-assisted development increases the speed and frequency of software releases. Every release still requires validation on real hardware before deployment, which means the volume of real-device testing increases in direct proportion to the pace of AI-driven development. Teams that do not scale their real-device testing infrastructure risk becoming the bottleneck in an otherwise accelerated development pipeline.

    • What is intelligent Power Delivery in USB hub testing solutions?

      Intelligent Power Delivery (PD) allows a USB hub to consistently allocate the right level of charging power to each connected device based on its requirements and battery state. In SQA environments, this prevents devices from losing charge during long automated test runs, reduces unnecessary charging that degrades battery health over time, and ensures all tests complete successfully even under heavy parallel workloads.

    • How do Cambrionix hubs integrate with automated testing workflows?

      The Cambrionix Connect software provides an API and CLI for programmatic control of individual ports and devices. Teams can remotely manage device connectivity, reboot devices, schedule charging sessions, and monitor real-time device status without physical access to the lab. These capabilities can be combined with third-party tools such as Apple Configurator and other test automation frameworks, allowing teams to incorporate Cambrionix hubs into broader automated workflows and device management pipelines.
