Medical delivery drivers are responsible for keeping an inventory of pharmaceuticals, so they must be familiar with the basic medical terminology. These delivery drivers also package medications, load and unload medical containers, and monitor the condition of the delivery truck for proper tire pressure, fluid, and brake wear. For audio, Media Foundation uses the Windows Multimedia Device (MMDevice) API to enumerate audio endpoint devices. If the device meets these criteria, there is no need to implement a custom media source. However, you might want to implement a custom media source for some other type of device or other live data source. For all devices except 'Mass Storage' Devices: If you plug a device to one USB port, and then you plug the same device to another USB port, a new record of the same device will be created for each USB port that you plug. So if you see multiple lines for exactly the same device, it means that you plugged it to different USB ports. USB's, Andriod phone's, Iphone's and other external hard drives are connecting, these devices showing in tray icon, under the portable devices in Device manager and in explorer as well. When I connect my windows phone Lumia 800 (version 7.8), phone make sound and the plugin symbol on the battery indicates that means phone is charging and have.
-->Select the HDMI device as the default output device. When an external sound device is not connected to the computer, the sound settings revert to your computer's speakers and headphones. When the HDMI device is connected to the computer, the sound settings change to the HDMI device. Open sound settings to ensure the correct output device is.

- Windows 8.1
Applies to
- Device manufacturers of CDC Control devices
Microsoft-provided in-box driver (Usbser.sys) for your Communications and CDC Control device.
In Windows 10, the driver has been rewritten by using the Kernel-Mode Driver Framework that improves the overall stability of the driver.
- Improved PnP and power management by the driver (such as, handling surprise removal).
- Added power management features such as USB Selective Suspend.
In addition, UWP applications can now use the APIs provided by the new Windows.Devices.SerialCommunication namespace that allow apps to talk to these devices.
Usbser.sys installation
Load the Microsoft-provided in-box driver (Usbser.sys) for your Communications and CDC Control device.
Download accell driver. Note
If you trying to install a USB device class driver included in Windows, you do not need to download the driver. They are installed automatically. If they are not installed automatically, contact the device manufacturer. For the list of USB device class driver included in Windows, see USB device class drivers included in Windows.
Windows 10
In Windows 10, a new INF, Usbser.inf, has been added to %Systemroot%Inf that loads Usbser.sys as the function device object (FDO) in the device stack. If your device belongs to the Communications and CDC Control device class, Usbser.sys is loaded automatically.You do not need to write your own INF to reference the driver. The driver is loaded based on a compatible ID match similar to other USB device class drivers included in Windows.
USBClass_02
USBClass_02&SubClass_02
- If you want to load Usbser.sys automatically, set the class code to 02 and subclass code to 02 in the Device Descriptor. For more information, see USB communications device class. With this approach, you are not required to distribute INF files for your device because the system uses Usbser.inf.
- If your device specifies class code 02 but a subclass code value other than 02, Usbser.sys does not load automatically. Pnp Manager tries to find a driver. If a suitable driver is not found, the device might not have a driver loaded. In this case, you might have to load your own driver or write an INF that references another in-box driver.
- If your device specifies class and subclass codes to 02, and you want to load another driver instead of Usbser.sys, you have to write an INF that specifies the hardware ID of the device and the driver to install. For examples, look through the INF files included with sample drivers and find devices similar to your device. For information about INF sections, see Overview of INF Files.
Note
Microsoft encourages you to use in-box drivers whenever possible. On mobile editions of Windows, such as Windows 10 Mobile, only drivers that are part of the operating system are loaded. Unlike desktop editions, it is not possible to load a driver through an external driver package. With the new in-box INF, Usbser.sys is automatically loaded if a USB-to-serial device is detected on the mobile device.
Custo Med Port Devices Driver Updater
Windows 8.1 and earlier versions
In Windows 8.1 and earlier versions of the operating system, Usbser.sys is not automatically loaded when a USB-to-serial device is attached to a computer. To load the driver, you need to write an INF that references the modem INF (mdmcpq.inf) by using the Include directive. The directive is required for instantiating the service, copying inbox binaries, and registering a device interface GUID that applications require to find the device and talk to it. That INF specifies 'Usbser' as a lower filter driver in a device stack.
The INF also needs to specify the device setup class as Modem to use mdmcpq.inf. Under the [Version] section of the INF, specify the Modem and the device class GUID. for details, see System-Supplied Device Setup Classes.
For more information, see this KB article.
Configure selective suspend for Usbser.sys
Starting in Windows 10, Usbser.sys supports USB Selective Suspend. It allows the attached USB-to-serial device to enter a low power state when not in use, while the system remains in the S0 state. When communication with the device resumes, the device can leave the Suspend state and resume Working state. The feature is disabled by default and can be enabled and configured by setting the IdleUsbSelectiveSuspendPolicy entry under this registry key:
To configure power management features of Usbser.sys, you can set IdleUsbSelectiveSuspendPolicy to:
'0x00000001': Enters selective suspend when idle, that is, when there are no active data transfers to or from the device.
'0x00000000': Enters selective suspend only when there are no open handles to the device.
That entry can be added in one of two ways:
Write an INF that references the install INF and add the registry entry in the HW.AddReg section.
Describe the registry entry in an extended properties OS feature descriptor. Add a custom property section that sets the bPropertyName field to a Unicode string, 'IdleUsbSelectiveSuspendPolicy' and wPropertyNameLength to 62 bytes. Set the bPropertyData field to '0x00000001' or '0x00000000'. The property values are stored as little-endian 32-bit integers.
For more information, see Microsoft OS Descriptors.
Develop Windows applications for a USB CDC device
If you install Usbser.sys for the USB CDC device, here are the application programming model options:
Starting in Windows 10, a Windows app can send requests to Usbser.sys by using the Windows.Devices.SerialCommunication namespace. It defines Windows Runtime classes that can use to communicate with a USB CDC device through a serial port or some abstraction of a serial port. The classes provide functionality to discover such serial device, read and write data, and control serial-specific properties for flow control, such as setting baud rate, signal states.
In Windows 8.1 and earlier versions, you can write a Windows desktop application that opens a virtual COM port and communicates with the device. For more information, see:

Presentation allows you to send codes to and receive codes from external devices during the experiment. To do this, you use a port device. In addition, you can set and read values from analog inputs on some devices. See the information below for each device.
The port devices available for a particular computer are listed in the Port Devices box of the Port Settings window. You can access the Port Settings window by going to the Port panel and clicking on the button labeled 'Port Properties'. Presentation will automatically search for port devices and will add them to the Port Devices box. You can also have Presentation search for port devices by clicking on the 'Re-enumerate' button.
Clicking the 'Options' button brings up the Port Device Options menu. This menu allows you to select whether certain port and/or device types are enumerated and displayed in the Port Devices list. If the 'Enumerate LPT ports' box is unchecked, for example, LPT (parallel) ports will not be displayed in the available port devices list. By default, all boxes are checked and all port devices are enumerated.
Port Devices are system specific. If you add a port device to the list, that device will appear in the list every time you use Presentation on that computer unless you remove the item. Likewise, if you choose not to enumerate a certain port and/or device type using the options menu, any devices of that type will not appear in the list when using Presentation on that computer unless that option is changed.
Each device in the port device list will display a 'Type', 'Device', and 'Identifier'. When you highlight a particular device in the list, the properties of that device are shown in the 'Properties' box below the port device list. If the device is removeable, the 'Remove' button will be available.
The 'Properties' box shows information about the port device that is currently highlighted in the port device list. Blank driver download for windows 10. The Properties box will display the Type, Device, and Identifier information for a particular port device. The other information displayed depends on the type of port. For devices that contain digital I/O registers, pulse triggered counters, or supported analog outputs, information about each element will be displayed in the Device Components box. The name of the element is used when setting up a port input channel or an output port using that device. An element can only be used as a single port input channel or as a single output port in a particular experiment. Any element that is capable of both receiving input and sending output can only be used as one of those in any given experiment.
Supported Devices
Standard Parallel Ports
Standard parallel ports are identified by Windows as 'LPTX' where 'X' is some number. They have a female 25 pin connector. Presentation allows the use of 2 registers of the parallel port:
- Data port: input or output; 8 bits; pins 2-9
- Status port: input only; 4 bits; pins 11,12,13,15
Presentation can also handle the parallel port hardware interrupt for select port input modes (See the Port Input Channels section). When using an interrupt mode, make sure 'Use any interrupt assigned to the port' is selected on the 'Port Settings' tab of the parallel port properties window within the Windows device manager. Also, make sure the parallel port is configured as an 'ECP & EPP' parallel port in the system BIOS. This is most likely the default. Parallel port interrupts are triggered on pin 10. The polarity test on the Parallel Port Tests window can be used to confirm that the interrupt is triggered on the rising edge of pin 10 rather than the falling edge. Interrupt features will only work on built-in parallel ports. If you are using a non-built-in parallel port or a port added manually to the Port Devices list with the 'Add' button, interrupt features will not work.
Built-in parallel ports will generally always work with all parallel port features in Presentation. However, add-on parallel ports such as PCI parallel port cards or PCMCIA parallel port cards may or may not work, and may not be automatically detected by Presentation. If you would like to use a parallel port not detected automatically by Presentation, click the 'Add' button, select 'Parallel Port' as the type, and enter the 'LPT' number assigned to the port by Windows. After adding the port, the 'Address' field in the 'Properties' box will be editable. You should set this value to the start of the 'I/O Range' reported for the port by the Windows device manager. Note that the values displayed in the Windows device manager are generally in hexadecimal. Add a '0x' before the number when entering it into Presentation. Note that information about manually added port devices is stored on the system and not in the experiment file.
Standard Serial Ports
Standard serial ports are identified by Windows as 'COMX', where 'X' is some number. They have a male 9 pin connector.
| Note: Some devices connecting using USB have drivers that emulate a serial port, so that they appear in Windows as a serial port. In this case, reading and writing data from this 'serial port' is a means of communicating with the device's driver. The effect of this will depend on the driver. There is otherwise no difference as far as Presentation is concerned. |
For transmitting and receiving data on the serial port, Presentation uses the standard serial port RS-232 communication protocol. The serial port configuration parameters are displayed in the port device 'Properties' box. You should specify the settings to match the settings of the external device. Note that these values are stored in the experiment file and not on the system. This means that each experiment may use different settings.
The parameters in the last column of the 'Properties' box for a serial port have the following effects:
- CTS control - specifies whether the clear-to-send signal is monitored for output flow control. If 'true' and CTS is off, output is suspended.
- DSR out control - specifies whether the and DSR is off, output is suspended.
- DSR in control - specifies whether the, bytes are ignored unless DSR is high.
- DTR control - specifies the disables the DTR line and leaves it disabled. 'enable' enables the DTR line and leaves it on. 'handshake' enables DTR handshaking.
- RTS control - specifies the request-to-send flow control. 'disable' disables the RTS line and leaves it disabled. 'enable' enables the RTS line and leaves it enabled. 'handshake' enables RTS handshaking. 'toggle' specifies that the RTS line will be high if bytes are available for transmission.
In order to receive codes as soon as they arrive at the port, Presentation attempts to configure the serial port to generate a hardware interrupt after the receipt of every single byte. This operation may fail if you are using some USB serial port adapters, and the scenario will not run. If you would like to use such a port, deselect the 'Set FIFO interrupt' checkbox, and Presentation will no longer try to set this. In that case, whether or not a serial byte is registered as soon as it is received will depend on how the USB (or other) serial port driver functions. You may want to empirically test this.
In addition to standard serial port data communication, Presentation can also detect logic changes on several of the serial port pins. This can be useful to monitor simple TTL signals being sent to the PC. In this configuration, Presentation will record voltage up and down events on one of the pins. When using this feature, the same serial port cannot also be used for standard data communication. See the Port Input Channels section for more information.
National Instruments NI-DAQmx Devices
Presentation can use digital I/O ports, pulse triggered counters, and analog I/O channels on National Instruments cards which support the NI-DAQmx driver software (Essentially all recent cards do). Presentation uses the NI-DAQmx interface to communicate with these cards. The 'Type' property for these devices will be 'NI-DAQmx'. The 'Device' property will be the model name as reported by the NI-DAQmx software. The 'Identifier' property is the name of the device within the NI-DAQmx software. Although it is possible to change this name using the NI Measurement & Automation explorer program, you should avoid doing this after an experiment is set up, as Presentation will be unable to find the device the next time the experiment is loaded.
Custo Med Port Devices Drivers
Presentation will automatically detect all such devices installed on the system. If a device does not appear in Presentation, use the NI software to confirm that the device is installed and working correctly. If your card has analog output channels that do not appear in the 'Device Components' list, try updating your NI-DAQmx software, as newer functions are used for enumerating those channels. Physical analog input channels will not appear in this list. See the Direct Port Access section for information about reading analog inputs.
Measurement Computing Universal Library Devices
Custo Med Port Devices Driver Ed
Presentation can use digital I/O ports on Measurement Computing cards that are compatible with the Measurement Computing Universal Library driver software. You can additionally use event counters or 82C54 chip based counters. Currently, analog channels are not supported. The 'Type' for these devices will be 'MC Universal Library'. The 'Device' property will be the model name as reported by the Universal Library software. The 'Identifier' property is the name of the device within the Universal Library software. Although it is possible to change this name using the Measurement Computing software, you should avoid doing this after an experiment is set up, as Presentation will be unable to find the device the next time the experiment is loaded.

Presentation will automatically detect all such devices installed on the system. If a device does not appear in Presentation, use the Measurement Computing software to confirm that the device is installed and working correctly.
'Memory Range' Devices
If you have a device that is not directly supported by Presentation but can be accessed using memory-mapped registers in the Windows address space below 0xFFFF, Presentation provides a facility for writing and reading from those registers. To do this, click the 'Add' button, select 'Memory Range', and specify the address and memory range in bytes. Prepend a '0x' to numerical values when entering numbers in hexadecimal. Note that device information entered manually is stored on the system and not in experiment files.
The 'Memory Range' device facility essentially allows you to read and write from memory registers directly using a driver that comes with Presentation. Therefore, you should be very careful about using this facility, as abuse of it can cause your system to crash.
