Description
Ultibo HID Keyboard Consumer unit
This is a consumer for any generic HID keyboard device, it accepts HID application collections in the generic desktop page (HID_PAGE_GENERIC_DESKTOP) with the usage set to keyboard (HID_DESKTOP_KEYBOARD).
The consumer will bind to any keyboard collection that includes at a minimum an input report containing a field that provides keypress data from the keyboard / keypad page (HID_PAGE_KEYBOARD_KEYPAD) and a field providing modifier keys from the same page.
The consumer will also look for an output report containing a field from the LED page (HID_PAGE_LED) and will use this to set the keyboard LEDs if found.
Up to 16 keypresses per report can be accepted (see HID_KEYBOARD_MAX_KEYS) but most keyboards will commonly report up to 6 which is the size defined in the USB HID usage tables for boot mode keyboard reports.
