Hi John, You should use the Linux (or equivalent) command lsusb to find the USB Vendor and Product Id, e.g.:
# lsusb [...] Bus 004 Device 002: ID 0764:0601 Cyber Power System, Inc. Bus 004 Device 003: ID 050d:0751 Belkin Components [...] # Im not sure whether this is duplicate information, my mailbox was filled by the attachments to your previous email. Might be an idea to reduce the resolution a little before sending (see attached), or using a service like photobucket and provide a link ...
