# kIOHIDElementCommitDirectionOut

Causes the element data to be sent to the device.

```
kIOHIDElementCommitDirectionOut
```

## Discussion

Specifying this direction causes the [`commit`](/documentation/HIDDriverKit/IOHIDElement/commit) function to send the element data to the device. Use the [`setValue`](/documentation/HIDDriverKit/IOHIDElement/setValue) or [`setDataValue`](/documentation/HIDDriverKit/IOHIDElement/setDataValue) functions to specify the new data before committing it.
