how to use FT_SetVIDPID?

Supported Operating Systems

Linux
Mac OS X (10.4 and later)

Summary

A command to include a custom VID and PID combination within the internal device list table. This will
allow the driver to load for the specified VID and PID combination.

Definition

FT_STATUS FT_SetVIDPID (DWORD dwVID, DWORD dwPID)

Parameters

dwVID        Device Vendor ID (VID)
dwPID        Device Product ID (PID)

Return Value

FT_OK if successful, otherwise the return value is an FT error code.

Remarks

By default, the driver will support a limited set of VID and PID matched devices (VID 0x0403 with PIDs
0x6001, 0x6010, 0x6006 only).
In order to use the driver with other VID and PID combinations the FT_SetVIDPID function must be used
prior to calling FT_ListDevices, FT_Open, FT_OpenEx or FT_CreateDeviceInfoList.
