Hi
I want an windows application which is similar to Hyper Terminal application but for USB . I mean i can send and receive data to/from a USB (HID) device just like hyper terminal is used to send and receive data over USART.
If you know any such application please let me know its name

Docklight is an amazing software, but not free. It can send via USB. Some more suggestions could be found in the following thread:
https://www.edaboard.com/threads/228501/

By the way I think that hyperterminal has the ability to communicate via USB. If this is wrong someone could correct.

Hope it helps.

Thanks for your reply. I dont think Docklight can be used for USB. It can be used for USB to serial converters where PC side is still USB.
 

if you use libusb-win32 then you have a terminal like
pack for testing.
 

Thanks for your reply
I think its a library and an application need to be developed using this library?
 

yes. it is for developing usb apps.

I don't think that he is asking for that. The comparison with hyperterminal as well as thread title is at least a failure. Strictly translating what he needs reading back the OP, is a USB line sniffing commercial software with the ability to respond. But the exact device he wants to interface is still a mystery.

This more sounds like a "do it yourself". I would also search in codeproject community or similar site for a ready project. Maybe a software sniffer using USB APIs could be found but respond capabilities will be harder to find. It doesn't make sence in a way. After all we are only guessing since the background provided by the OP is still vague.
 

Thanks alot Arun Sharma, yes this is what I needed, you made my day :)

The interfacing device is a standalone microcontroller working as an HID device . I want to send data over USB protocol from PC to that microcontroller using some application in the PC.
The resemblance to windows hyper terminal is that hyper terminal is also used to send data from PC to a microcontroller but not over USB but simple serial communication called RS232.

Thanks For these words...

Which Micro-Controller are you using to send data through USB Port..
Which Compiler..

Me to wants to do some experiment with USB..
But not able to do much..
Except reading and writing data with the help of MikroC Compiler....
Which has in-built functions...
 

Hi
I'm using CCS C and PIC18F4550 microcontroller. I'm using Proteus software to simulate the code. CCS C has very good library to handle HID terminal and the compiler includes examples too .
 

CCS is not free..
I can't use its Limited Mode to Compile my Codes..

I had already Purchased MikroC ....
Anyways Good Luck
