Hi all,

Usually, we set the HID information in FX3 FW.

Is it possible to change the HID information after the FX3 has been connected to PC?

ex: Modify the product name to "Logan" by PC.

Hello,

It is not possible to change the Product string from the host side. As you might be knowing, Product string is actually a string descriptor descriptor that is reported by the device to the host. For changing this, you need to make changes in the firmware itself.

Please let me know if you have any more queries on this.

Hello,

Can you please elaborate your requirement so that we can understand it better?

Is it like you need to change the Product string from the control center and by not doing any changes in firmware?

Dear Jayakrishna:

Sorry, I don't explain exactly.

"Is it like you need to change the Product string from the control center and by not doing any changes in firmware?"

Not exactly, I want to change the Product string by using CyAPI.h(or Windows API?).

Is it possible or not?

Thank you!
