USB control without using DAQ

[Mathan]

Hi all

Am new to Labview. Am using LV8.2 evaluation version.

My current project is to communicate with PS2 mouse via USB signals or even with Parallel port. My application is to give a control from LV8.2 that the device gets powered/unpowered with the click of a button.

I don't have any DAQ. Is it possible to control the mouse(Power/unpower) via system USB or parallel port + LV8.2 ?

Earlier reply was much appreciated.

Thanks & Regards

Mathan

Hai Dennis Knutson,

Thanks for ur suggestion.

I want to know whether the PC's USB port or parallel port can be controlled via LabView 8.2 program without use of any DAQ?

In the sense, i want to send a control signal (ON/OFF or Hi/Low) to power/unpower a device connected(Logical Mouse PS/2) in USB.

Also give me some details about USB RAW.

Thanks again

Mathan
