Re: USB input controller how to.

Is anyone trying to connect a USB keypad/numpad to the DriverStation? I picked up a Targus two port numeric keypad and we are not getting much info from it. We are programming in C/C++ and tried getting raw button data (as if it were a joystick) and weren't able to read anything. Although as we typed on the keypad, it did make strange characters appear on the DriverStation.

If anyone has any info on connecting something like this, I'd certainly appreciate a few clues.

Thanks,
Roger
