Joystick HID
PostPosted: Sat Mar 07, 2009 4:36 am     Reply with quote

Hi All, I have been tring to get a joystick HID to work , but just can't seem to get it doing.

The hardware is OK, as I can use the HID demo's OK.

The following is my HID code,

Code:

#IFNDEF __USB_DESCRIPTORS__
#DEFINE __USB_DESCRIPTORS__

#include <usb.h>

   ///  receives 2 absolute bytes ranging from 0 to 0xFF.

#ENDIF


Code seems to compile OK. When I connect the device to the PC, windows will display the "control yoke" when it first detects it, but them will put a yellow ! on the device.

If I replaced the USB_CLASS_SPECIFIC_DESC array with the original as in the demo, it will all start working again, which make me think there is something that I have not changed.
The following 3 vars I am not too sure about.

USB_CLASS_SPECIFIC_DESC_LOOKUP[USB_NUM_CONFIGURATIONS]
USB_CLASS_SPECIFIC_DESC_LOOKUP_SIZE[USB_NUM_CONFIGURATIONS]
USB_CLASS_DESCRIPTORS[USB_NUM_CONFIGURATIONS]

I just can work out what they are, or how to set them correctly.

Is anyone able to point me in the right direction?

Thanks

How do you know that this is a valid joystick descriptor? Did you check with USBView and comapre with a known operational joystick device?

Hi FvM, I should of mentioned that I used the HID Descriptor Tool from usb.org.

Is there a tool that can show me why the device fail in windows?

Thanks

I didn't yet use the said tool. I meant to use USBView (a MS tool) to check the descriptors. Generally, when a device has a descriptor according to an USB class specification, it's not necessarily accepted by MS Windows, too. This is the case at least with CDC, where only specific combinations of device options are supported, and I guess, it's also true with HID. Thus I suggested to use an existing device as a template.

Ok, after some more hunting on the web, I found(on a page with nothing to do with joysticks) the fact that I must return the data in full bytes.

In my original code, I was sending rudder (8 bits), throttle(8 bits), position(16 bits) and 4 buttons(4 bits), meaning I am sending 3.5 bytes. When I made the descriptor have 8 buttons, it works fine.

Hope that helps someone

Thanks

Hi all

I tried the code, changing to 8 buttons:

Code:

...
0x05, 9,          // Usage_Page = Button
19, 1,            // Usage_Min (Button 1)
29, 8,            // Usage_Max (Button 8)
15, 0,            // Logical_Min = 0
25, 1,            // Logical_Max = 1
75, 1,            // Report_Size = 1
95, 8,            // Report_Count = 8
...


but it doesn't work (yellow ! on the device). What is wrong?


Thanks
