hi everyone! i am trying control Thorlabs device with libftdi on my linux host. could you please give me reference to simple example to do that? Controllers Thorlabs use FTDI type FT232BM. I have linux Debian host with libftdi-dev, libftdi1, libftdi1-2 and libftdi1-dev packages installed on it. find_all.c example code did not find my Thorlabs controller.
