Discussion - Software / Re: USB Keyboard Host on VNCII
« on: April 04, 2020, 05:46:22 PM »
Hi!

Thank you for your response.
Would the FT90x work  with a USB hub? If not, what is the best way to multiplex the D+/- pins of the FT90x? I will always have the barcode reader connected  and usb flash  drive will be connected  occasionally. I will have 2 separate USB connectors on the PCB, one for  the reader and another for the flash drive.
Do you think the attached schematic would work?

When the flash drive needs to be used I could reset the FT90 and change it's configuration in software to switch from HID to MSC Host. When flash drive is removed I reset the FT90 again, switch it to HID Host so that it enumerates again the keyboard/barcode reader.

Best regards
Tom

Hi!
Great, many thanks for this, I've also found AN_185 Vinculum-II UART to USB HID Class and got it to run on my VNC2 board and was able to read data from low speed usb keyboard. I'm getting data on each keypress and sent them to uart.
However, when I attached a Full-speed usb Barcode reader it didn't enumerate.  Below are the device descriptors for the barcode reader:

The reader works fine as HID Keyboard with my PC but VNC2 fails at the enumeration:

Code: [Select]
      // find first HID on USB Port 1
      hc_ioctlClass.dev_class = USB_CLASS_HID; //USB_CLASS_HID;
      hc_ioctlClass.dev_subclass = USB_SUBCLASS_ANY; //USB_CLASS_HID; //USB_SUBCLASS_ANY;
      hc_ioctlClass.dev_protocol = USB_PROTOCOL_ANY;

      // user ioctl to find first hub device

     
      hc_iocb.ioctl_code = VOS_IOCTL_USBHOST_DEVICE_FIND_HANDLE_BY_CLASS;
      hc_iocb.handle.dif = NULL;
      hc_iocb.set = &hc_ioctlClass;
      hc_iocb.get = &ifDev;

      printmsg("VNCLII: ioctl to find first hub device ");
      status = vos_dev_ioctl(hUSBHOST_1, &hc_iocb);

      if (status != USBHOST_OK)
      {
         printmsg("fail. Error:");
         
         itoa(status,buffer,10);    //  FAILS! status=1  (USBHOST_NOT_FOUND)
         
         printmsg(buffer); printmsg("\r\n");   
         
         continue;
      }
      else {
         
          printmsg("OK!\r\n");
         //continue;         
         
         
      }

The USB host configuration:

Code: [Select]
// Initialise USB Host
usbhostContext.if_count = 8;
usbhostContext.ep_count = 16;
usbhostContext.xfer_count = 2;
usbhostContext.iso_xfer_count = 2;
usbhost_init(VOS_DEV_USBHOST_1, -1, &usbhostContext);

Could it be that VNC2 may have a problem with Full speed HID device? 

This is a descriptor of my low speed keyboard:

Major difference is the speed and packet size (bMaxPacketSize0: 64B with the reader) but it shouldn't matter for VNC2?

Discussion - Software / USB Keyboard Host on VNCII
« on: March 31, 2020, 10:32:55 AM »
I have been using VNCII 32L for many years as USB flash drive host but now I'd like to use it as a host for hid keyboard or barcode reader.  I would like to  use USB1 interface as  flash drive host and  as HID host on USB2. I haven't found  any software example of USB  HID host on FTDI website, has anyone used the  VNCII chip that way?

Best regards
Tom
