Apologies for the long delay in replying...but got sidetracked on a different project and lost access to the UPS that was exhibiting the issue and just got back to it today.

The break was good though, because I took a fresh look at the changes you made and I'm no longer able to reproduce the exception.  I then tried it with the old version and got the exception, so your edits fixed the issue.

When do you think you might be able to update the Nuget Package version?

Kind regards -

Apologies, but I tested your fix on a different UPS device that was not reporting the UnitExponent as a -1.

When I plugged in my other UPS that had the -1, your code did not work.

The issue is in the method:

public static int DecodeExponent(uint value)
        {
            if (value > 15) { throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException("value", "Value range is [0, 15]."); }
            return value >= 8 ? (int)value - 16 : (int)value;
        }

The parameter is a uint value,  which when it comes in as a -1 makes it > 15 and throws the exception.

Not sure if this is what you intended.

Thanks again for looking into this.

Thanks for this.  It does fix my error.

When do you expect to update the NUGET package to reflect this edit?

Kind regards -

Looking into this, there is an ambiguity in the USB HID specification and it sounds like your device takes the alternate interpretation from HIDSharp. I've added handling for that alternative interpretation. Please try this version of HIDSharp and see if it fixes your problem:

I've run into an issue retrieving the ReportDescriptor from a UPS device.  HidSharp throws an exception of:

ArgumentOutOfRangeException("value", "Value range is [0, 15]

in the method DecodeExponent.

When I step into the code, I see that the value being passed in is 0xFFFFFFFF (4294967295)

If I modify the code that validates the value to ignore the check for a valid range for the exponent, all the other values in the returned ReportDescriptor look valid.  And I get good values for Exponent in other reports.

As I'm new to HID and trying to understand, was curious as to what a -1 for Unit Exponent might indicate. I'm assuming it's an undefined value and if I use a tool like USBlyzer and look at the HID Report Descriptor it returns, there is no value for Unit but it does not throw an exception.

Any help or information anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
