usb hid and rs232 [solved]
PostPosted: Mon Sep 09, 2013 10:27 am     Reply with quote

I have use the hid example and change anything in the code.
The hid device is working fine.

But I need to receive data via rs232 and send it to the pc via usb.

When i catch the rs232 signal and send it to the pc, the terminal program shows the correct data.
But in my program the data are wrong.
Code:

 while(true)
   {
      usb_task();
      usb_debug_task();
     
      /*---------------------------------------------------------------------*/
      CheckHDDSwitches();
      /*---------------------------------------------------------------------*/
      if (usb_enumerated())
      {
         /*------------------------------------------------------------------*/
         if (usb_kbhit(1))
         {
            usb_get_packet(1, in_data, USB_CONFIG_HID_RX_SIZE);
            delay_ms(100);
            if(in_data[2]==0)//Message for master controler
            {               
               if(in_data[3]==0) {WriteHDDOutput(in_data[0], in_data[1]);} //Write HDD message
               if(in_data[3]==1) {ReadHDDOutput();} //Read HDD message
               if(in_data[3]==2) {ReadHDDSwitches();} //Read switches message
            }
            else //Message for Extension
            {
                printf("%03u:%03u:%03u:%03u\r", in_data[0], in_data[1], in_data[2], in_data[3]);
               SendInDataAsAcknowledge();
            }
         }
         delay_ms(250);
         /*-----------------------------------------------------------------*/
         if (kbhit())
         {
            c=getc();
            cKeyBuffer[iIndexKeyBuffer] = c;
            iIndexKeyBuffer++;
            printf("RS: %03u:%03u:%03u:%03u\r", in_data_RS[0], in_data_RS[1], in_data_RS[2], in_data_RS[3]); //this works when i catch the rs232 signal.
            if (c=='\n' || c=='\r')
            {
               //printf("KeyBuffer: %s\r", cKeyBuffer);
               cKeyBuffer[iIndexKeyBuffer] = 0; 
               FillInData(cKEYBuffer);
               //all data comes from rs232 will be send to pc over usb
               delay_ms(250);
               usb_put_packet(1, in_data_RS, USB_CONFIG_HID_TX_SIZE, USB_DTS_TOGGLE); //this is not working. This program code was never reached
               iIndexKeyBuffer = 0;
               cKeyBuffer[iIndexKeyBuffer] = 0; 
            }
         }
      }
      /*-----------------------------------------------------------------*/
      //send_timer--;
      //delay_ms(1);
   }
}


The same kbhit() and follow code, I have used any times and it works!

Any idea?

Killer lines:

delay_ms.....

Use ex_sisr.c, to receive the serial.

The delay_ms was a test.
If I had a printf behind the usb_get_packet, it works better. But it could be a contingency.
I will test the example.

You have others though.

Problem starts with '/n'. Most terminal programs won't send this on it's own. They send LF/CR. If you pause, the keyboard scanning stops. When you think that at 9600bps, a 1/4 second pause could be 250 characters, and the PIC buffers less than two, you basically have to get into the practise of never stopping accepting characters. Hence EX_SISR (which shows how to use the hardware/software to buffer characters).
Personally, if your 'HID' device is actually CDC, then I'd suggest using the usb_getc, and usb_putc drivers, rather than direct USB I/O. Reason is that these (like EX_SISR), _buffer_ the communications....

Thanks for the explanation.

The RS232 comes from a second pic.
With the cdc device drivers I have trouble with windows 2008 server and an intel board. The HID device works very well.

In the ex_sisr example is described to use the B0 and int_ext interrupt if there are no rda interrupt.
I use the pic18f4550 and there is no rda interrupt.
What should i connect to the B0 pin???

thanks

The 4550, has an INT_RDA. Use it. Serial is on pins C6, and C7.
It'll never be reliable using a software UART, and B0. Every time the serial receive is called it risks interrupting the USB (you must not have long delays in interrupts with USB - the mSec needed to receive a character is such a delay). Worse if you try to send anything, this will be corrupted by the USB interrupts...

Well done.

(and 'well done', in coming back to say). Smile

Best Wishes
