Wireless MPG stops responding when sitting idle

Post by phoenixmetal »

I have a wireless MPG (Centroid model# CWP-4), and it frequently stops responding if left inactive for a while.

The only way I have found to fix the issue is to do a complete power cycle.

When the issue occurs, it still shows a good signal and shows that it is connected, however it is unresponsive. Battery gauge shows strong battery.

I have power saving turned off on the PC, in case it is a USB power-saving issue.

How can I make sure that it stays working all day?
