usb physical plug-in simulator - maybe stupid question of a beginner #683

Open RobertoB74 opened 2 years ago

RobertoB74 commented 2 years ago

thanks for help

HollisTech commented 2 years ago

PnP drivers will install with no device present, but will not load until the device specified in the inf file is connected to the system. If you are just trying things out, there are other samples that do not require physical devices. 'echo' for example.

thank you .... indeed today i have complited my first step based on 'keyboard echo' .... all well .... now i procede to grow ... but one day in the next i need to know how to simulate a physical device connection ... and more maybe in the future realize something that pass to the usb bus (or the 'responsable target') the VID and PID of the physical device

Simulating a usb device is way too complicated to be of any use. You would be better off buying a simple usb dev board instead and use that for experimentation.

thank you for your kindness .... but obviously every 'personal DEVICE IO controls' i will couldn't test .... i will think to a solution with arduino or something other

have a nice day and still thank you
