Trying to interface a C51 device to a PC PS2 port. I can't find information on the PS2 data packet. Of course I have searched MS web site but HDI driver information appears to locked up in the DDK sbscription kits. I googled a number of driver web sites that will sell drivers but I don't want to install a driver on Windows. I want to use the existing 'standard' Win drivers such as a common mouse driver. If anyone can point me in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated. Brad
The whole point of a device driver is that it hides the hardware details from the user - that's why you won't find the PS/2 hardware details on the Microsoft site! Probably one of the best sites to start any such search is Tomi Engdahl's ePanorama.net: http://www.epanorama.net/links/pc/ http://www.epanorama.net/links/pc/interface.html#keyboard Others you might try: http://www.nti1.com/ps2-prots.html There is also an App Note from Philips on the subject.
Hi, Here is one more... http://members.tripod.com/~ilkerf/c64tower/F_Keyboard_FAQ.html Very recently,I have worked on this project.We were able to establish both host-device as well as device-host communicatio. Device-host is very easy to implement compared to Host-device.If you have any questions you can mail me. Rgds Raj Shetgar
Thanks Andy and Raj. Both links have great info. I knew that this site would be the golden source. Brad
