You might also need to get a USB hub or external power of some kind. 
I've found that when using the sphere or orbit, that it will drain too 
much current from the USB ports on the ts boards (this is a problem with 
a lot of USB cameras actually, and then go over spec on this). You'll 
have to find an external power source if your board resets after you 
plug in the camera.
