The configuration process for a MySQL database is similar to the configuration for MSSQL. Only the main differences are described in this manual.
1. Download and install the 32-bit version of MySQL ODBC Connector (the ODBC driver) for MySQL from mysql.org.
Fig. 1 Driver section
2. The structure of a table in the database will look like this:
2.1 In the case of write a lot of USB HID items.
CREATE TABLE usb_data ( REC_ID int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, TIMESTAMP datetime DEFAULT NULL, ITEM_NAME varchar(25) NOT NULL, ITEM_VALUE varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (REC_ID) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;2.2 In case of writing several USB HID items
CREATE TABLE usb_data_2 ( REC_ID int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, TIMESTAMP datetime NOT NULL, ITEM1 varchar(30) DEFAULT NULL, ITEM2 varchar(30) DEFAULT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (REC_ID) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;If you specify any other data type than String for ITEM1 or ITEM2 in the USB HID settings, you should create the columns of the corresponding types while creating a table.
3. Create an ODBC data source for your MySQL database.
4. During “Binding,” you should take into account that the names of the table and its columns are case-sensitive in MySQL.
