second usb
-
There is a micro usb on omega, is it possible to use it as second usb and not just power source?
-
Yes - both the micro and the standard USB connectors can be used equally for USB access and to provide power.

@Igor-Neuhold Actually, the micro USB is used only for USB-to-serial and power. It is not attached to the USB Host. In order to plug USB devices to it you will need to have a USB hub that's plugged into the standard USB port.

@Boken-Lin sorry, this is new to me, so what can I do with USB-to-serial? I thought i could use micro USB like normal usb and connect my old mp3 player as a data source, but i guess i can use it now to power arduino and communicate with it?

@Boken-Lin @Igor-Neuhold Sorry - my bad. I believed I had connected a USB drive to the micro USB in the past. But on rechecking, it only works on the standard USB.
My apologies for earlier misleading response
