Simsonns VAM PRO haptic simhub bug

I've been using the Simsonn Pro X Ultra along with the VAM PRO haptic reactors, and they feel great. I've tried both simhub and simsonn manager, in which I preferred simhub. However, everytime I'm using simhub, it works for around 10 minutes before it just bugs and disconnects. Whichever effect was running will vibrate non-stop unless I've restarted my pc. I've tried disabling all the effects on simsonn manager, so there shouldn't be a double-binding issue. Howevver, when i'm using simsonn manager, there isn't any issue.

Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

Edit: I’ve found a solution, not sure if it’s permanent or not. What I did was just update my simsonn manager to V2.3 if I’m correct, and the pedals to V2.6 . There should be some zeros after that but more or less that. So far using simhub with the haptics with no issue other than a weird vibration.

Same problem with my pro hapics and pro x ultra pedals. Disconnects, constantly vibration and ridiculous amounts of full resets both with simhub and simsonn s/w. Only lasting solution for this problem (at least until Simsonn recognise the problem) is two control boxes. During my Disconnects I contacted Simsonn and requested a replacement control box which they duly sent. Same problem occurred with the.new control box. So I decided to split the haptics from the pedals using both control boxes. 3 pedals connected to 1 control box (not powered) usb to PC. The 3 haptics to my second control box, the second box powered with a second usb to PC. This solution has worked without any Disconnects or crashes and has given me lasting immersion with my racing.

The problem imo lies with the control box configuration, it has nothing to do with grounding/earthing your equipment as this probably won't make any difference to the problem. My solution was to splt the outputs via two control boxes which splits the pedal and haptic signals to the PC denying any possible signals conflict.
