APPENDIX A. USAGE ID DEFINITIONS
This appendix is from the following document found on www.usb.org: Universal Serial Bus HID Usage
Tables, Version 1.12 and specifically for this manual, Section 10, Keyboard/Keypad Page (0x07).
KEYBOARD/KEYPAD PAGE (0X07)
This section is the Usage Page for key codes to be used in implementing a USB keyboard. A Boot
Keyboard (84-, 101- or 104-key) should at a minimum support all associated usage codes as indicated in
the “Boot” column below.
The usage type of all key codes is Selectors (Sel), except for the modifier keys Keyboard Left Control
(0x224) to Keyboard Right GUI (0x231) which are Dynamic Flags (DV).
Note
A general note on Usages and languages: Due to the variation of keyboards from
language to language, it is not feasible to specify exact key mappings for every language.
Where this list is not specific for a key function in a language, the closest equivalent key
position should be used, so that a keyboard may be modified for a different language by
simply printing different keycaps. One example is the Y key on a North American
keyboard. In Germany this is typically Z. Rather than changing the keyboard firmware to
put the Z Usage into that place in the descriptor list, the vendor should use the Y Usage
on both the North American and German keyboards. This continues to be the existing
practice in the industry, in order to minimize the number of changes to the electronics to
accommodate other languages.
