The sendFeatureReport()
method of the HIDDevice
interface sends a feature report to the HID device. Feature reports are a way for HID devices and applications to exchange non-standardized HID data.
The reportId
for each of the report formats that this device supports can be retrieved from HIDDevice.collections
.
sendFeatureReport(reportId, data)
Parameters
reportId
An 8-bit report ID. If the HID device does not use report IDs, send 0
.
data
Bytes as an ArrayBuffer
, a TypedArray
, or a DataView
.
A Promise
that resolves with undefined
once the report has been sent.
NotAllowedError
DOMException
Thrown if sending the report fails for any reason.
In the following example sendFeatureReport()
makes a device blink. You can see more examples and live demos in the article Connecting to uncommon HID devices.
const reportId = 1;
for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
// Turn off
await device.sendFeatureReport(reportId, Uint32Array.from([0, 0]));
await new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, 100));
// Turn on
await device.sendFeatureReport(reportId, Uint32Array.from([512, 0]));
await new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, 100));
}
