Well that what I thought....

I am not connecting any other USB device, but I am still having trouble getting all the 240*512
packets.
I'll try to explain better how does the device handle the bulk transaction:
1 - The host needs to send a command using the bulk transfer (bulk
out) to request the data.
2- If the device accepts the command, the host will start receiving
data through the bulk In endpoint
3 - The device checks periodically for buffer over run to make sure
there is no data lost. If it detects that the data wasn't pulled out fast
enough (512 bytes in 256 us) then it will terminates the current
transaction and wait for another request.
>-- Does the host issue IN token with sufficient frequency?
Well I am just requesting a single read of 240*512. When I use smaller buffers and overlap the transfers, I am able to get more data from the device than if I use a single read of 240*512..

It does until the device detects a buffer over run which means that the data wasn't pulled out fast enough.Then the device will terminate the transaction.

This device works fine on different platform, so I am assuming the data toggle is working correctly....

The device sends the first 2 packets,but after that it detects that the data wasn't pulled out fast enough (512 bytes in 256 us), it terminates the transaction and stop sending data.
Since I set the IOUSBPipe->Read() function to time out after 5s of no bus activity, and since the device stops sending data waiting for a new request, the IOUSBPipeRead() function is timing out after 5 s.

I am assuming that shouldn't be the problem since the device is working on windows...
Thanks,
Mike
