Hallo, Hans-Christoph Steiner hat gesagt: // Hans-Christoph Steiner wrote:
Like with [comport], send [hidio] the [devices( message.
But this sends to the console, IIRC?
Yes, but you can get the info via the right outlet. So you could do
your own search. Or just open the device using the USB productID/ manufactuerID, or by USB HID class (i.e. mouse, joystick, gamepad).
Maybe I have an old version, but the hidio-0.1 I have here doesn't send anything to the outlet for closed devices (I use Linux.) "devices" prints to console only, "info" prints this:
open 0 device -1 total 0 poll 5 vendorID 0x0001 productID 0x0000 product Unknown
regardless of what devices there are. If devices are open, it prints the info correctly.
How do I open by PID? That would actually be what I want to do. Do I have to test-open all possible devices once?
Ciao
