Is it possible to get a list of HID devices and select one using c# without using DeviceBox?

Hello

You can use following properties for access to device list:

Code Select Expand


nrHid1[i] - devices from device list
nrHid1.DeviceCount - device list length
nrHid1.DeviceIndex - index of selected (active) device
nrHid1.HidDevice - active device (same as: (NrHidDevice)nrHid1[nrHid1.DeviceIndex])

The following code choices second device:

Code Select Expand


nrHid1.DeviceIndex = 1; // zero based index

I had the same idea before that qestion. I've tried it without nrDeviceBox and nrHid1.DeviceIndex returns zero. It seems that nrDeviceBox have to be on form and have to be assigned with nrHid1 (set nrDeviceBox1.nrComm property to nrHid1). I have a sense that nrDeviceBox do some enumerating thing.
