    Default USB hid maker help please.

    Hi all,
    Is there anyone out there who uses Hid maker FS?
    I can make a simple device with inputs & outputs, but I am having trouble implementing a joystick. I have attached the hid maker project files if anyone can take a look at them.
    Hid maker does produce the pbp code, but during compile there is an error in the descript.asm file "String1_L1 not previously defined"
    At the same time micro code studio says sucsess, and a hex file is produced.
    But there is no joystick shown in windows, though in device manager my attempted joystick is shown as working.
    I have trawled through the usb standards, but I can't find the answer. Trouble is I dont know if this is something I am doing wrong, or if it is a hid maker problem.
    Amy help would be greatly appreciated.
    Bob...

    Hi Gaston,

    Yes I did have some success. Unfortunately I lost the files for the completed project when a computer crashed. I do still have a basic version which as far as I remember works. The final product was a joystick with 12 buttons, hat switch, and 6 axes.
    If you PM me your email I can send you the files.

    You are right it is all down to the descriptor file. Once you have a basic 2 axis joystick working it is just a case of adding more to the descriptor, then adding the code to the pic program.

    Regards
    Bob...

    Thanks Bob.
    I have solved the problem . It was a matter of understanding how to build the descriptors using hidmaker. I am using an old version 1.0.0.23 but it works.

    Regards
    Gaston
