How to use Bulk Transfer in Delphi

That looks OK to me. You may want to pass an index and a value after CMD_GET to further identify the block, but you don't need to.

If you don't want to spend the extra 128 bytes of RAM for the reply message, you can return -1 and have usbFunctionRead() called to obtain chunks of 8 bytes each.

How to use Bulk Transfer in Delphi

2007-07-20T16:34:11+02:00

OK
But I don't sure understand all right
In Application I use
usb_control_msg(udev, (USB_TVENDOR or USB_RDEVICE or USB_EP_IN), CMD_GET, 0, 0, buffer, sizeof(buffer), 5000);
to send control transfer by CMD_GET = My request , buffer = In Data , sizeof(buffer) = byte received

In Device I use
usbFunctionSetup(uchar data[8])
and Return 128 , usbMsgPtr = Pointter of My data

Please recommend me

1 MB is quite a bit of data for a low speed device. You must expect a total transfer time of ~ 2 minutes.

I would recommend that you divide the data into chunks of 128 bytes (the driver allows up to 254, but you probably want a power of 2) and read these chunks with a control transfer. You can use the wIndex field of the request to address the chunk, unless it's a data stream anyway.

I have no idea about Delphi and how to use USB from there, but if you don't have very good reasons to use bulk transfers, I would recommend against them.

Bulk transfers are not allowed for low speed USB devices, but they are tolerated by Windows and most other operating systems. If you specify a bulk endpoint in your descriptor, the host polls aggressively, consuming 90% of the AVR's CPU time. This is probably not what you want.

If you have a choice, I would recommend that you send/receive your data in control transfers.
