For more information about the concept of +USB IDs please see the file USB-ID-FAQ.txt. Objective Development guarantees +that the IDs listed below are not used by any USB compliant devices. + + +==================== +MECHANISM OF SHARING +==================== + +From a technical point of view, two different devices can share the same USB +Vendor- and Product-ID if they require the same driver on operating system +level. We make use of this fact by assigning separate IDs for various device +classes. On application layer, devices must be distinguished by their textual +name or serial number. We offer separate sets of IDs for discrimination by +textual name and for serial number. + +Examples for shared use of USB IDs are included with V-USB in the "examples" +subdirectory. + + +====================================== +IDs FOR DISCRIMINATION BY TEXTUAL NAME +====================================== + +If you use one of the IDs listed below, your device and host-side software +must conform to these rules: + +(1) The USB device MUST provide a textual representation of the manufacturer +and product identification. The manufacturer identification MUST be available +at least in USB language 0x0409 (English/US). + +(2) The textual manufacturer identification MUST contain either an Internet +domain name (e.g. "mycompany.com") registered and owned by you, or an e-mail +address under your control (e.g. "myname@gmx.net"). You can embed the domain +name or e-mail address in any string you like, e.g. "Objective Development +http://www.obdev.at/vusb/". + +(3) You are responsible for retaining ownership of the domain or e-mail +address for as long as any of your products are in use. + +(4) You may choose any string for the textual product identification, as long +as this string is unique within the scope of your textual manufacturer +identification. + +(5) Application side device look-up MUST be based on the textual manufacturer +and product identification in addition to VID/PID matching. The driver +matching MUST be a comparison of the entire strings, NOT a sub-string match. + +(6) For devices which implement a particular USB device class (e.g. HID), the +operating system's default class driver MUST be used. If an operating system +driver for Vendor Class devices is needed, this driver must be libusb or +libusb-win32 (see http://libusb.org/ and +http://libusb-win32.sourceforge.net/). + +Table if IDs for discrimination by textual name: + +PID dec (hex) | VID dec (hex) | Description of use +==============+===============+============================================ +1500 (0x05dc) | 5824 (0x16c0) | For Vendor Class devices with libusb +--------------+---------------+-------------------------------------------- +1503 (0x05df) | 5824 (0x16c0) | For generic HID class devices (which are + | | NOT mice, keyboards or joysticks) +--------------+---------------+-------------------------------------------- +1505 (0x05e1) | 5824 (0x16c0) | For CDC-ACM class devices (modems) +--------------+---------------+-------------------------------------------- +1508 (0x05e4) | 5824 (0x16c0) | For MIDI class devices +--------------+---------------+-------------------------------------------- + +Note that Windows caches the textual product- and vendor-description for +mice, keyboards and joysticks. Name-bsed discrimination is therefore not +recommended for these device classes. + + +======================================= +IDs FOR DISCRIMINATION BY SERIAL NUMBER +======================================= + +If you use one of the IDs listed below, your device and host-side software +must conform to these rules: + +(1) The USB device MUST provide a textual representation of the serial +number, unless ONLY the operating system's default class driver is used. +The serial number string MUST be available at least in USB language 0x0409 +(English/US). + +(2) The serial number MUST start with either an Internet domain name (e.g. +"mycompany.com") registered and owned by you, or an e-mail address under your +control (e.g. "myname@gmx.net"), both terminated with a colon (":") character. +You MAY append any string you like for further discrimination of your devices. + +(3) You are responsible for retaining ownership of the domain or e-mail +address for as long as any of your products are in use. + +(5) Application side device look-up MUST be based on the serial number string +in addition to VID/PID matching. The matching must start at the first +character of the serial number string and include the colon character +terminating your domain or e-mail address. It MAY stop anywhere after that. + +(6) For devices which implement a particular USB device class (e.g. HID), the +operating system's default class driver MUST be used. If an operating system +driver for Vendor Class devices is needed, this driver must be libusb or +libusb-win32 (see http://libusb.org/ and +http://libusb-win32.sourceforge.net/). + +(7) If ONLY the operating system's default class driver is used, e.g. for +mice, keyboards, joysticks, CDC or MIDI devices and no discrimination by an +application is needed, the serial number may be omitted. + + +Table if IDs for discrimination by serial number string: + +PID dec (hex) | VID dec (hex) | Description of use +===============+===============+=========================================== +10200 (0x27d8) | 5824 (0x16c0) | For Vendor Class devices with libusb +---------------+---------------+------------------------------------------- +10201 (0x27d9) | 5824 (0x16c0) | For generic HID class devices (which are + | | NOT mice, keyboards or joysticks) +---------------+---------------+------------------------------------------- +10202 (0x27da) | 5824 (0x16c0) | For USB Mice +---------------+---------------+------------------------------------------- +10203 (0x27db) | 5824 (0x16c0) | For USB Keyboards +---------------+---------------+------------------------------------------- +10204 (0x27dc) | 5824 (0x16c0) | For USB Joysticks +---------------+---------------+------------------------------------------- +10205 (0x27dd) | 5824 (0x16c0) | For CDC-ACM class devices (modems) +---------------+---------------+------------------------------------------- +10206 (0x27de) | 5824 (0x16c0) | For MIDI class devices +---------------+---------------+------------------------------------------- + + +================= +ORIGIN OF USB-IDs +================= + +OBJECTIVE DEVELOPMENT Software GmbH has obtained all VID/PID pairs listed +here from Wouter van Ooijen (see www.voti.nl) for exclusive disposition. +Wouter van Ooijen has obtained the VID from the USB Implementers Forum, Inc. +(see www.usb.org).
