    Then, just think, if somebody helps you figure out this 'project', and you get that new job, what happens when the next project comes down and you don't have the answer right away? You get to find another new job!!!

    Default Somthing like this?

    Dousbin:
    USBBufferCount = USBBufferSizeRX ' RX buffer size
    USBService ' keep connection alive
    USBIn 1, USBBuffer, USBBufferCount, Dousbin ' read data, if available

    If USBBuffer[?] = ? then
    PORTA = %00000001
    else
    PORTA = %00000000
    endif
    return
    I'm tried If USBBuffer > 0 then


    PS
    Are "KBDDESCMOJA" OK?

    PORTA = %00000010
    endif
    but nothing hepend

    My friend it programing on VB6 and he give me a small prog for sending commands for LED's(ON-OFF).

    If you looked in the other thread you would see the answer. You need to read the USB HID Class Device Description document from usb.org. In this document it tells you the exact format of the packet that the computer sends that has the status of the CAP Lock and other signals. You need to process this OUT packet.

    Cool

    Ok Faaktoo


    Firstly the caps, numlock status are sent as bits in byte zero sent from the pc. These are are always sent from the pc on every DoUSBin service.

    Code:
    ' BYTE 0 - LEDS STATUS (USBIN, OUTPUT REPORT)
            'BIT 0 = NUM LOCK
            'BIT 1 = CAPS LOCK
            'BIT 2 = SCROLL LOCK
            'BIT 3 = COMPOSE      
            'BIT 4 = KANA
            
            'BIT <5:7> = NOT USED PADDED DATA
    If you want to display the status of the caps, num lock, scroll lock on your pic than you could put some LEDs on a port and assign var to them , example:

    Code:
        ' the leds
        NUM                 VAR PORTB.0
        CAPS                VAR PORTB.1
        SCRL                VAR PORTB.2
    If this bit is 1, the led is on. If it is 0, the led is off.

    Than in your main program your can display the satus of the scroll lock etc in a DoUSBin routine.

    Example

    Code:
    ' ------------------------------------------------------------------------------     
       
    DoUSBIn:
    '   =======================================
    '   Check and receive data from the USB bus                            
    '   =======================================
    
        USBBufferCount = USBBufferSizeRX                ' RX buffer size
        USBService                                      ' keep connection alive
        USBIn 1, USBBufferin, USBBufferCount, SHOWLEDS
    
    SHOWLEDS:
        
        NUM  = USBBufferin.0(0)    ' num lock
        CAPS = USBBufferin.0(1)    ' Caps lock
        SCRL = USBBufferin.0(2)    ' Scoll lock
        
        return
    To display the status of the Caps lock, Num lock etc on the keyboard (ie simulate the key press on a button connected to your pic) just send the key number for the caps, num lock etc as part of your DoUSBout Bytes.

    For caps lock it is $39
    For scroll Lock it is $47
    For num lock it is $53.

    BTW, You still haven't said please yet.

    Why is this so hard to
    find,
    download
    and use a USB sniffer as suggested many time here?

    HHDSoft USB Monitor is one of the thousand one available.

    BTW, You still haven't said please yet.


    Who's your daddy huh?

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.
