I was wondering if anyone has had any luck making a cobra / EMX connect to a windows PC and detected as a generic HID device? I would like my cobra to connect as a generic HID device so no drivers are needed, and I can then find the device based on vendor etc and communicate with it. I dont want to use the supplied Keyboard / Mouse / Mass Storage (as i dont want it detected as those)
Basically I need to have a windows app detect the connected cobra and communicate with it over a stream ideally, I don’t want to bother with custom drivers etc. Currently I’m using CDC Serial connection, and polling each serial port to try and get a meaningful response to confirm that it is my device and then setting up the stream. This is not very elegant or user friendly though…
It shows you how to use HID descriptors. The code there is not cleaned up. But I have some clean code ready to be posted to code.tinyclr.com
And I will post it there as soon as the ‘Create’ button is enabled again
@ Gus - I tried searching the forum for HID and trauled though a lot of USB related posts before asking the question. No search results for HID (still isn’t…)
Is there another thread other than the one Wouter submitted? - Thanks Wouter - looks like a great starting point!!! Wonder when the Create will be enabled again?
