This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.
The clearHalt()
method of the USBDevice
interface returns a promise
that resolves when a halt condition is cleared. A halt condition is when a data tranfer to or from the device has a status of 'stall'
, which requires the web page (the host system, in USB terminology) to clear that condition. See the for details.
Syntax
var promise = USBDevice.clearHalt(direction, endpointNumber)
Parameters
- direction
- Indicates whether the devices input or output should be cleared. Valid values are
'in'
or'out'
. - endpointNumber
- Indicates the number of the endpoint to clear. The promise will reject if an invalid endpoint is supplied.
Return value
A promise
.
Example
The following example shows how to test for and clear a 'stall'
condition in the result of a data transfer.
What data can be passed to a USB device and how it is passed is particular and unique to each device.
while (true) { let result = await data.transferIn(1, 6); if (result.data && result.data.byteLength === 6) { console.log('Channel 1: ' + result.data.getUint16(0)); console.log('Channel 2: ' + result.data.getUint16(2)); console.log('Channel 5: ' + result.data.getUint16(4)); } if (result.status === 'stall') { console.warn('Endpoint stalled. Clearing.'); await device.clearHalt('in', 1); } }
