Hey all,
I'm looking at rs232 controllable PTX systems, and they seem to be more
and more usb and less and less rs232.
So is there anything like [comport] that allows one to send bytes to usb
devices? I think a general mechanism, like [comport] that would work for
all usb devices would be better
Nope, not possible. USB is not like a com port (even thought you can emulate
a com port with USB). USB requires a specific driver tailored to the target
device (USB communication is not similar to rs-232 serial communication, the
main difference being that an end device can not send data to the
You could make something based on libusb, but USB is pretty
complicated, so you'll want something higher level. Perhaps these
devices are actually USB-serial or USB-CDC (like serial). Then they
would not be hard to use, provided you have a driver to make them
show up like a serial
