Adjusting the Reset Pipe Retry Count
Return to Introduction  Previous page  Next page
In some rare cases, it may be necessary to increase the number of times the driver tries to reset a USB pipe on which an error has occurred, for example in noisy environments where a lot of USB errors occur.

The default value for the reset pipe request retry count is 50. This default value may be changed in the FTDIBUS.INF file by editing or including the following fragment.

   [FtdiBus.NT.AddService]
   AddReg = FtdiBus.NT.AddService.AddReg

   [FtdiBus.NT.AddService.AddReg]
   HKR,Parameters,"RetryResetCount",0x00010001,
100


In this example fragment, the reset pipe request is set to 100.

This value is held in the registry key located at

   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\FTDIBUS\Parameters\RetryResetCount
