Hey Guys!

Im new in finding codes with USB Gecko and i already watched the tutorial video by foxx. But my english isn't that great so i didn't understand everything. So can someone here maybe tell me how i know which data size i use when i am looking for codes? Or do i have to test it on my own?

Think about the number you are searching for from a Decimal perspective:

8 bit value = 0 - 255
16 bit value = 0 - 65535
32 bit value = 0 - 4294967295

Its something you just sort of get a feeling for for the more you do it. Trial and error is also involved.

I'm not too experienced about this stuff also (no matter how good my foxx-english understanding may be) but, from my experience, always aim to the largest (32bits). Once found, use your own good sense or tests to know which size it actually is. If it goes above FF, it's not 8bit etc... But as to a matter of finding the code, as far as I can tell, looking for 32 bit values also finds the 8bit ones (experienced guys, correct me if I'm wrong)

dexter0 has done a very good Tutorial but in english.
If you use http://translate.google.com/translate_t#
you can Translate a Web Page in it so you can read it in your

Its much easier for me when i can read it. So i think there is no need to translate.
