Stonestreet One Bluetooth HID demo. How to set the device info (eg VID, PID, serial Number)?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BT-MSPAUDSOURCE-RD, MSP430F5229

I would like to use the SS1 HID Demo as a starting point to implement a custom bluetooth (classic) HID device and I'm having trouble finding how to set device information such as VID, PID, SerialNumber, etc. (to be used for device enumeration)

I'm using a BT-MSPAUDSOURCE-RD (MSP430F5229+CC2564B) with the CC256x MSP430 Bluetopia SDK v1.5 R2. I've modified the sample HID Demo to work with the BT-MSPAUDSOURCE-RD and have been able to successfully pair and connect to the device from a Windows 7 machine. However, when I look at the hardwareID of the HID compliant mouse, there is no VID or PID, just the generic: HID\{00001124-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb}_LOCALMFG&000a (please see below).

I have looked into using the DIS api, but that seems to be for GATT and BLE devices - is this correct?

Can someone please help point me in the right direction for setting this information?

Thank you in advance!

Chris.

    Hi Chris,

    As per the HID Spec:

    ***
    5.3.2 Bluetooth HID device SDP Requirements

    Bluetooth HID devices shall implement a Bluetooth SDP server with a database containing at least the mandatory HID service attributes defined in Table 5.3 and SDP attributes required by the Bluetooth Core Specification [6]. Bluetooth HID devices shall also implement the Device Identification Profile [13].
    ***

    The Device Identification Profile spec (different from DIS) is available at: www.bluetooth.org/.../DownloadDoc.ashx

    You can use "SDP_Add_Attribute()" to add those attributes

    Hi Joseph.

    Thank you for your quick response!That is pretty much exactly what I was looking for.

    By using a custom HID report (instead of the default "mouse" report), I was also able to enumerate the device using the signal11-hdiapi and was able to gather the following info (that is set by default). Hopefully this can be useful to others in the future.
    - VID = 0xFFFF
    - PID = 0x0000
    - Serial # = Bluetooth address of device

    Thank you again!
    Chris.
