You need a USB Host Class driver since you will be plugging it into the USB
Host, not USB Function.

Hi,
I have been reading some of the documentation for USB drivers. It is
unclear to me which type of drivers I need to read and write the end
points
described below for my USB to 485 converter. I think I need a USB Function
Serial Client Driver can anyone confirm?
Device Descriptor:
bcdUSB: 0x0110
bDeviceClass: 0x00
bDeviceSubClass: 0x00
bDeviceProtocol: 0x00

iProduct: 0x02
iSerialNumber: 0x03

Current Config Value: 0x01
Device Bus Speed: Full
Device Address: 0x01
Open Pipes: 2

Serial communications USB-drivers typically goes into:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\USB\LoadClients\<X>_<Y>\Default\Default\USBSER_CLASS]
where <X> is the USB vendor id in decimal(!) and <Y> is the device id in
decimal.
But you should probably check what values you need with FTDI. At least
you'll need the Dll-value:
"Dll"="mydrv.dll"
Btw have you tested communication with the driver, last I checked FTDI
wasn't to eager to provide CE6 implementations of their drivers.
Hope it helps,

Hi,
I have a USB to 485 converter with a FTDI chip on it. FTDI supplies an
inf
file and a dll that supports windows CE. Currently I have to copy the
inf
and dll file to the windows directory and when I plug the USBto485
converter
in a window pops up and I have to type the name of the dll in that
window and
it works. I would like this to be more automatic. I am assuming that
I can
modify a bib file in my project and get the files in the windows
directory,
but how do I make it so the window does not come up asking me for the
name of
the dll? Are there registry entries I can add so the dll is already
present?
