<p>Hi Ingo,<br>
<br>
You can try <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://deken.puredata.info/library/hidraw">https://deken.puredata.info/library/hidraw</a><br>
<br>
You can open a device via its VID PID. From the help patch:<br>
</p>
<p><br>
"open device via VID PID (shown in the console if you did
"listdevices"). Note that the VID PID is hard-coded in the device
and this can be used (later) without a prior "listdevices"
message."</p>
<p><br>
The help patch also includes links to the web on how to set HID
permissions.<br>
<br>
You can connect<br>
<br>
[hidraw]<br>
|<br>
[print]<br>
<br>
to see which bytes (in the list) change when you press the mouse
buttons.</p>
