USB Host without using GHIElectronics.NETMF.USBHost dll

Hi…
Has anybody succeeded with USB host without using the GHIElectronics.NETMF.USBHost library.
Because i want to know the basic communication details with Mass Storage Class (MSC).
How the Controller handshake and read the VID and PID from the Mass Storage…

Regards YuvaRaja…

Thank you for your reply andre.m.
ya am read the USB…rg ,jan axelson’s blog and some sources…
i need to know , how the basic communication done in the NETMF…

Regards YuvaRaja…

Download Microsoft Porting Kit for NETMF from codeplex.

It will show you how it is implemented.

ya i will try it now…

There is no support for USB Host in standard NETMF.

@ Cuno - You are right. My mistake

oh…Then where can i get the details…
Any one can help me…?

Regards YuvaRaja…

User manual for particular MCU and example code from the manufacturer would be my first stop.

So in the NETMF, we are unable to make a USB Host Without using the GHI library…?
and the USB device (Client) only available in the NETMF…?
i cant understand what do u mean…?

What GHI board are you using?

Am not using the GHI Board…
Am use STM32f407ZG from ST
with a own PCB Board…
That has the USB Host port also…

please Answer my last Question also…

I figured out Something…The NETMF doesn’t Support for the USB HOST functionality.
If we need the HOST functionality means, we want to write our own LOW LEVEL (or REGISTER LEVEL ) code.
I think that the GHI done it in the GHIElectronics.NETMF.USBHost library.
Is it correct…?
Or something else in it…?

Regards YuvaRaja…

oh, Thank you andre.m.

Am trying to use the low level code and initialize the USB host Full speed but the problem is when upload the program,the program upload successfully. After that movement the USB not detected in my system.So i need to upload the firmware for every time. But my board use the USB host High speed port for deployment.Still i cant figure out the problem why the Full speed registers affect the High speed registers…?

lets get this straight.

you’re not using a GHI board.
you’re not using the .Net Micro framework.

And you expect someone here to be able to help? Hmmm, sorry, I don’t think you’re going to find anyone who can actually help, even if it was relevant to anyone here - which it isn’t.

Hi Brett…first of all am not using the GHI board, but am using the ghi firmware in a NETMF device…
did u know the GHI provides the low level code i mean register level code in the OSHW.Hardware, so am trying it in the low level code only.k
thanks for reply…

Hi andre.m
The low level code means IC’s Register level code

This is my example code for the USB host full speed…
Am already states that this code only crash the USB debug port…

Hi patc
Still am not find USB host code,So i will try to write my own driver…

GHI USB Host is a premium feature. So I assume this is not OpenSource.

Yes it is not a open source, But it is possible to write our own Host functionality through the GHI.OSHW.Hardware.LowLevel…
