NRF52840 USB Name

[Andrew]

How do I change the name of the USB device?  I am starting with the USB Audio Demo and, logically, it shows up in Windows as "nRF52 USB Audio Demo" but I cannot find that text anywhere in the project or the SDK.  It must not be related to the vendor ID because I can change the ID and the name still shows.

Hi,

 

It's set in the file app_usbd_string_config.h, in this path:

$SDK/examples/peripheral/usbd_audio/config

 

Cheers,

Håkon

Is there a way to set these without editing the SDK files?  There doesn't seem to be a macro settings that is set up to prevent redefinition if I try to to define them on my own.

Hi,

 

Unfortunately, there isn't an option to do so. You'll have to edit the _config.h file. You could wrap it around a #ifndef APP_USBD_STRINGS_MANUFACTURER \ #define .... \ #endif.

 

Best regards,

Håkon

Even for the serial number?

Side question, is the serial number field meant for identifying individual devices or for identifying a product?

Individual devices are identified by serial number. You want that feature as soon as you connect more than one to the same computer.
