Troubleshooting a TI-Innovator™ Hub that is not being detected by a TI-84 Plus CE calculator or a TI-Nspire CX family of handhelds
Troubleshooting steps to follow when you don’t see the green LED when connecting a TI-84 Plus CE calculator or TI-Nspire™ CX handheld to the TI-Innovator™ Hub.
1. Make sure that the calculator is turned on and that it has sufficient charge.

2. If you are using a USB Unit-to-Unit (Mini-A to Mini-B) cable to connect to a calculator, make sure to connect the "B" end of the cable to the “DATA B” port at the bottom of the Hub. Reversing this cable prevents the Hub from receiving power.
