INTERFACE_TYPE PROPERTY

Property ID:

0x10

Property Type:

Byte

Length:

1 byte

Get Property:

Yes

Set Property:

Yes

Default Value:

0 (HID)

Description:

The value is a byte that represents the devices interface type. The value can

 

be set to 0 for the HID interface or to 1 for the keyboard emulation interface.

 

When the value is set to 0 (HID) the device will behave as described in the

 

HID manual. When the value is set to 1 (keyboard emulation) the device will

 

behave as described in the keyboard emulation manual. This property should

 

be the first property changed because it affects which other properties are

 

available. After this property is changed, the device should be power cycled

 

before changing any other properties.

 

This property is stored in non-volatile memory, so it will persist when the unit

 

is power cycled. When this property is changed, the unit must be reset (see

 

Command Number 2) or power cycled to have these changes take effect.
