USB HID CDC ACM Application
################################
Overview
********
This sample app demonstrates use of multiple USB classes with multiple
instances. It combines two HID instances and two CDC ACM instances.
This sample can be found under :zephyr_file:`samples/subsys/usb/hid-cdc` in the
Zephyr project tree.
Requirements
************
This project requires an USB device driver and multiple endpoints.
Building and Running
********************
This sample can be built for multiple boards, in this example we will build it
for the nrf52840_pca10056 board:
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/subsys/usb/hid-cdc
:board: nrf52840_pca10056
:goals: build
:compact:
After you have built and flashed the sample app image to your board, plug the
board into a host device, for example, a PC running Linux.
Two CDC ACM interfaces (for example /dev/ttyACM1 and /dev/ttyACM2)
and two HID devices will be detected:
.. code-block:: console
usb 2-2: new full-speed USB device number 3 using ohci-pci
usb 2-2: New USB device found, idVendor=2fe3, idProduct=0100
usb 2-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
usb 2-2: Product: Zephyr HID and CDC ACM sample
usb 2-2: Manufacturer: ZEPHYR
usb 2-2: SerialNumber: 0.01
cdc_acm 2-2:1.0: ttyACM1: USB ACM device
input: ZEPHYR Zephyr HID and CDC ACM sample as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:06.0/usb2/2-2/2-2:1.2/0003:2FE3:0100.0002/input/input8
hid-generic 0003:2FE3:0100.0002: input,hidraw1: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [ZEPHYR Zephyr HID and CDC ACM sample] on usb-0000:00:06.0-2/input2
cdc_acm 2-2:1.3: ttyACM2: USB ACM device
input: ZEPHYR Zephyr HID and CDC ACM sample as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:06.0/usb2/2-2/2-2:1.5/0003:2FE3:0100.0003/input/input9
hid-generic 0003:2FE3:0100.0003: input,hidraw2: USB HID v1.10 Keyboard [ZEPHYR Zephyr HID and CDC ACM sample] on usb-0000:00:06.0-2/input5
You can now connect to both CDC ACM ports:
.. code-block:: console
minicom -D /dev/ttyACM1 -b 115200
.. code-block:: console
minicom -D /dev/ttyACM2 -b 115200
After both ports have been connected to, messages explaining usage of each port will be displayed:
.. code-block:: console
Welcome to CDC ACM 0!
Supported commands:
up - moves the mouse up
down - moves the mouse down
right - moves the mouse to right
left - moves the mouse to left
.. code-block:: console
Welcome to CDC ACM 1!
Enter a string and terminate it with ENTER.
It will be sent via HID when BUTTON 2 is pressed.
You can modify it by sending a new one here.
CDC ACM 0 may be used to control the mouse by typing a command and pressing :kbd:`ENTER`.
CDC ACM 1 is used to control the keyboard - any string typed into it and finished with :kbd:`ENTER` will be saved
on the device and typed back to the host when BUTTON 2 is pressed.
Buttons have following functions:
- Button 0 moves HID mouse in random direction
- Button 1 is a left HID mouse button
- Button 2 types the string sent with CDC ACM 1 using HID keyboard
- Button 3 is a CAPS LOCK on HID keyboard
