Real Gamepad HID ?

Hi :)

I have a question regarding the BLUNO. According to this topic, the AT command to send in order to switch into HID mode are the followings :

Command 1:AT+SETTING=DEFAULT or AT+ROLE=ROLE_PERIPHERAL
Command 2:AT+FSM= FSM_HID_USB_COM_BLE_AT

However, the BLUNO seems to be seen by Windows as a Bluetooth Keyboard, and not a Bluetooth GamePad. Further in the same topic, we see the key mapping seems to be affected with keyboard letters...

My question is, is it possible to change the HID mode (aka : the descriptor) from Keyboard to GamePad ? and if yes, how can I set the number of axis and buttons ?

Thank you :)

Thank for your answer :)

I see... that's very shame... :| The only module that I found with a true gamepad HID descriptor was the RN-42 but the number of axis and buttons is locked by the firmware and not editable :(

Do you know any other BLE module which allow me to write my own HID descriptor ? :o

Thanks :)

Sorry, you cannot change the HID mode (aka : the descriptor) from Keyboard to GamePad, the BLUNO is regarded as a Bluetooth Keyboard by Windows.
