USB HID Logger

USB peripherals with HID (Human Interface Device) are becoming more and more popular, due to the way they transmit data and the fact that they don't require special drivers. USB HID Logger aims to replace or at least supplement the native software that comes with USB devices. It logs every interaction between the devices and your system, and it places some interesting features at your disposal.

USB HID Logger is free to try for a limited period, with some minor limitations. It works on all modern Windows systems, and it doesn't have any special hardware or software requirements. The installation process is fast, but it involves a few options that may confuse inexperienced users.

Starting up the software and logging events from your devices is not too difficult. All you have to do is click an Add button, select a device, specify how to process and export the data and you're done, though you can make a few other tweaks along the way. Whenever information is passed to or from your targeted device, the event will be logged and displayed on the main user interface, with a timestamp and other details.

The software places a wide range of filtering options at your disposal, so you can find any bit of information you need at a moment's notice, without any complications. Furthermore, USB HID Logger's event processing capabilities open up some interesting possibilities. For example, you can set the application to automatically send an email when a certain event occurs, so you will always know if a device fails, even while you're away.

Besides allowing you to export the logged data to Excel in various ways, the software can also export the information to an Oracle, Access or MySQL database of your choice, from where you can do much more with the collected information.

Any information exchanged between your computer and USB devices can be collected, stored and used in a highly efficient manner with USB HID Logger.
