Hi,
I have been doing virtual PIC18F4550 USB communication project using MPLAB and Proteus. I managed to connect virtual Pic board using Proteus VSM debugger in MPLAB (Win XP makes "USB connected" sound). I installed required drivers so I can see that PIC18F4550 is connected.
My questions would be:
o If I virtual can send some data to HyperTerminal?
o If yes, how?
o Or should I buy components, build the board and then try to send data?
thx.

p.s. I attached my MPLAB project and Proteus file with board schematics in .rar file.

I found out that USB simulation is very hard. Simulation software would have to simulate USB host device, simulate enumeration process and even would have to
allow device driver installation - it would be very similar to whole
virtual PC machine. Other approach would be to create some kind of
universal virtual device and it would not be easy either.
For simulation purposes use UART as communication interface rather
than USB. UART is easy to simulate, USB is not.
 

Eimantas can u please tell me how to use your code to send a value to PC via USB
