USB PC Keyboard

Many many moons ago I used an example of a PC keyboard Flowcode sample that worked with FC5 and ECIO28.

I cannot find it anywhere now and wonder if anyone has a link to it or is able to PM it to me.


Thanks in advance,

James :-}

Hi Steve,

It wasn't that one but that is good to study regardless.

I am trying to build a keyboard where the keys are pre-set so I press a button on an E-Block button bank and it sends an ascii code to the PC mimicking a keyboard.

I have the HID thing sorted and a variation that Ben R helped with back in the day but want to start from scratch and build from there.

Hello,

The HID Keyboard section here should help. It has a Flowcode example and an Excel file showing the various byte combinations for different keys.

Does anyone have any idea why the keyboard isn't recognised here please?

It does not recognise the HID as a keyboard for some reason and it's driving me bonkers!

Thanks in advance...
