Single Finger Hybrid Mode Report Descriptor

The Single Finger Hybrid Mode Multi-touch Devices sample report descriptor contains a single logical collection. For many categories of devices, end users may operate with a single finger in most scenarios. For this type of device, this mode is the most optimal.

Note  HID I2C multi-touch devices are required to follow this mode.

Note  the REPORTID_MAX_COUNT and REPORTID_MOUSE referenced in the above descriptors don’t signify any particular value. Report identifiers are optional and should be assigned according to the needs of every report descriptor. Please see the Device Class Definition for Human Interface Devices (HID) Version 1.11 for more information about report identifiers.

The following example shows 2 frames of 5 reports each for single-finger hybrid device representing 5 counts.
