Hi,
1. I want to design self USB HID device based on MSP430F5529, as the VID must be kept as 0x2047, can I change the PID value? If I change the PID value, will it affects the enumeration of PC? For example, if change PID to 0x0401, will it be enumerated by PC or I need to register the PID on USB-IF? If need to register on USB-IF, how to do this (under TI's VID)?
2. By the way, the HID device is identified by PC, it is shown as following in Device Manager, can I change the string 'USB Input Device'? If can the display can be changed, how to change?
3. When the HID device is enumerated successfully, there add two devices in Device Manager, one is 'USB Input Device' and the other is 'HID-compliant vendor-defined device', why add two devices? What is the difference between these two devices?
Best Regards,
ZJY
Hi Pengfei,
Thank you for your reply.
According to the guidance, does it mean that if I want to use TI's hardware (VID) to generate one HID product should ask for TI to license a unique PID as part of VID-sharing program? By the way, the following link is not accessible now software-dl-1.ti.com/.../vidtracker.html
About question 2 - HID devices rename and configuration, it seems that can only change the device name on the current PC. Can the device name be set to specific defined string when PC enumerates the device? Maybe this rename change should be placed in FW or somewhere else, so that the specific defined string can display on any PC after successfully enumeration.
Wish for your reply, thank you!
Best Regards,
ZJY
