Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F5529

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi Forum,
I have a question: I want to change the signing-on-string of the MSP430F5529 launchpad. At the moment I see the string named "HID Interface" in the interface file of my Linux system. I want to change it to "HID Keyboard Emulation" because I want to emulate a barcode scanner.

I use the Ti demo code for HID.

    Hi Eike,

    Can you post a screen shot of what you see on your Linux system?  I don't see the 'HID interface' specified in the /etc/networks/interfaces file.  But then I am not that familiar with Linux.

    Anyway, if you are using the H8_Keyboard example with the MSP430F5529 file, you can try changing the 'Hid Interface' name in the descriptors.c file for that example.  In the structure named -

    abromStringDescriptor[]

    The 'HID Interface' is specified in String Index 5.

    Regards,

    Arthi

    many, many thanks. It is running!
    I am member of our software testing department. We want to simulate a barcode scanner at our 'System Under Test'.
    And now, with you help, it works!
