Hi Bruce,
I had a look at the link to the documentation you sent a link to and I
looked in common.reg I think I need to add the following register entry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\USB\LoadClients\1905_1956\Default\Default\AXYZ]
"DLL"="USB485.dll"
to get my dll to load since my vendor id is 0x1905 and my Product id is
0x1956. Am I on the right track here?

Doesn't mean what you intrepreted it to mean. Nor does it suggest all of
the values that you put into the registry. The square brackets indicate
sub-keys, granted in an odd way. So what that really is:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\USB\LoadClients\Default\Default\3\Generic_Sample_Hid_Class_Driver]
"DLL"="USBHID.dll"
Where the Default values are for Product and Vendor IDs, Class ID and
Interface ID, but in this case it indicates any Product and Vendor ID and
class id. The 3 is the interface id.

Take a look in common.reg for examples of this.

Hi Bruce,
I read the documentation here.
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa918154.aspx
I though if I matched the parameters of the device that I am trying to
plug
into the usb in the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\USB\LoadClients and gave the name of my dll
I would get a dll to load. I guess this isn't right? So let me turn the
question around. What do I have to do in the registry to get my dll to
load?

No.
What documenation are you refering to?
That key is the root of where you need to put your keys, but I can't
cross
reference what you have done enough to try to straighten you out.

Hi Bruce,
What I am getting from the documentation is if I add the following
registry
entry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\USB\LoadClients]
"VendorID"=dword:1905
"ProductID"=dword:1956
"DeviceClass"=dword:0
"DeviceSubClass"=dword:0
"DeviceProtocol"=dword:0
"Dll"="myusbdevicedriver.dll"
then myusbdevicedriver.dll will get loaded when I attach my USB device.
Is
this true?

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
bMaxPacketSize0: 0x08 (8)
idVendor: 0x1905
idProduct: 0x1956
bcdDevice: 0x0400
iManufacturer: 0x01
iProduct: 0x02
iSerialNumber: 0x03
bNumConfigurations: 0x01
ConnectionStatus: DeviceConnected
Current Config Value: 0x01
Device Bus Speed: Full
Device Address: 0x01
Open Pipes: 2
Endpoint Descriptor:
bEndpointAddress: 0x81

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?
