Physically setting USB BUS

Post by abhishek1808 » Thu 4. Jun 2015, 12:04

Hello

I observed that, when using the API the first USB interface which is connected to the PC in time is considered as USBBUS1 (Channel) and so on.... Is there a possibility that we set the USBBUS (handel) physically using device manager or some other solution. Basically I want to fix the physical USB port saying that this is USBBUS1 and when ever I connect the interface in Time that remains the USBBUS1. I am new to this so pardon if its a silly question.

Regards
Abhishek

Hello

The solution you provide fixes a particular interface to a particular application, the solution I am looking is to fix the USB Port on my laptop to that Specific Application irrespective of device ID used.
Is that possible. Please let me know

Hello,

What you want to do is to fix a PCAN-Channel to a respective USB port of a computer. This is not possible. You can only fix a respective PCAN-USB device to a PCAN-Basic channel, for instance, that the PCAN-USB with ID 3 is always the channel USBBUS1.
Best regards,
Keneth
