Re^4: Data adquisition from a USB device

I though it was a joke
Thanks for your help. As you said I don't have the time for reverse engineering.
I though that, once one gets to mimic the communication between the device and the driver, interpreting the income data was easier.
I will try to get the technical documentation and see.
Thanks,
F

The good news about the USB is that it is a really general method of communicating with devices. This means it can be used with all kinds of devices. The bad news, of course, is that if can be used with all kinds of devices.<grin/> There's always more protocol on top. Kind of reminds me of the old days of working with serial ports.<shrug/> If and when you get the technical docs, you might want to consider releasing a Perl module on CPAN. That way you can save someone else from having to work this out. G. Wade	[reply]
