Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to read from the USB keyboard with a custom board STM32F205RCT6 MCU.

I am using USB FS host (host only) with HAL library.but it just works with some keyboards!

Other keyboards are detected by host but can not read data.

Can any one help me?

My Code:

int main(void) {  /* STM32F4xx HAL library initialization:  - Configure the Flash prefetch, instruction and Data caches  - Configure the Systick to generate an interrupt each 1 msec  - Set NVIC Group Priority to 4  - Global MSP (MCU Support Package) initialization  */  HAL_Init();    /* Configure the system clock to 120 MHz */  SystemClock_Config();  /* Init Host Library */  USBH_Init(&hUSBHost, USBH_UserProcess, 0);    /* Add Supported Class */  USBH_RegisterClass(&hUSBHost, USBH_HID_CLASS);    /* Start Host Process */  USBH_Start(&hUSBHost);    /* Run Application (Blocking mode) */  while (1)  {  /* USB Host Background task */  USBH_Process(&hUSBHost);     if(USBH_HID_GetDeviceType(&hUSBHost) == HID_KEYBOARD)  {   hid_demo.keyboard_state = HID_KEYBOARD_IDLE;   hid_demo.state = HID_DEMO_KEYBOARD; //HID_KeyboardMenuProcess();  HID_KEYBD_Info_TypeDef *k_pinfo;  char c; k_pinfo = USBH_HID_GetKeybdInfo(&hUSBHost);  if(k_pinfo != NULL) {  c = USBH_HID_GetASCIICode(k_pinfo);  char str[5]; sprintf(str,'%c',c); HAL_UART_Transmit(&huart2,k_pinfo->keys,6,10000);  }  } }�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?

Result (only

Thank you for your patch and suggestions. In my case I have problem also with keyboards and the my real problem, it's that stack doesn't work with my custom device; in this case the problem is the same (or is similar) to that of the mice or keyboards.

Can you send me the entire file 'usbh_hid.c'? The changes are not so clear in the attached file.

Hi Luca,

Below is link to the whole file.  There are other changes not related directly to the issue, though.

Thanks

I get it to work just fine.

The keyboards I've used are:

'Microsoft wired keyboard 600' that worked,

'Standart Leadership keyboard Cód.: 8496 USB' that worked after changes.

Thanks

you patch goes direct to the point, is just avoid HID_IDLE.

case HID_INIT:

HID_Handle->Init(phost);

HID_Handle->state = HID_SYNC; // skip HID_IDLE state

break;

Best Regards

I see your point, its not possible to attend to every specific non standart device. But when in 6 devices it has achieved the nominal functionality goals in just 33% (
