FRDM-MCXA153 Full Speed USB

[Gurunath]

Hi, i tried running an USB example named "dev_cdc_vcom_bm" on FRDM-MCXA153 board, where it creates a virtual COM port, and echos back the characters sent though terminal using that specific VCOM port. 

i can see the VCOM appeared in device manager has a default name "USB Serial Device" as shown in the image attached, but i need to change this default name to a custom name, using example code usb files itself,  but not in device manager settings.

Please let me know the steps required to do this name change of VCOM , or any changes to be done in usb example driver files .

Thanks.

Hello @Gurunath 

We need to change the driver configuration to change name. My PC is Win10, I will show the steps  about how to change this default name to a custom name on my side.

Step1. Right click "USB Serial Device" on Device Manager of PC.

Step2, Choose "Driver key" under Details view. Copy the Value.

Step3,  Open and run Registry as Administrator.

Step4, Search the "value" copied in step2.

Step5, change name as below:

Step6, Reset board. Show as below.

If your PC is another system, you can also google like " how to change USB device name on xxx system".

Hello @Gurunath 

I don't think this can be changed in USB stack.  This is determined by the USB drive on PC.
