We use two DMMs UNI-T UT61B. They have two interfaces each, a RS232C Interface and a USB interface. The RS232C interfaces work well. Without any command before, the DMMs continuously send 2 .. 3 packages of 14 Bytes per second. We get them with a little Python 3.52 script, using PySerial. It's ok.

But the younger of our computers have no RS232C comports, and I don't want to use virtual comports. So I try to use the USB interfaces of the DMMs with PyUSB 1.0, but somethin is wrong with this test script (using Win10 Version 1607, 64 bit):

import usb.util
import usb.backend.libusb1

def Gosub():
    failures = 0
    failuresmaximum = 48
dev = usb.core.find (idVendor = 0x1a86, idProduct = 0xe008) # Multimeter UT61B
    if dev == None:
        print ('Multimeter UT61B not found')
    else:
        print ('Multimeter UT61B was found')
        dev.set_configuration (1)
        cfg = dev.get_active_configuration()
        intf = cfg [(0, 0)]
        ep = usb.util.find_descriptor (intf, custom_match = \
lambda e: usb.util.endpoint_direction (e.bEndpointAddress) == \
                                      usb.util.ENDPOINT_IN)
        if ep == None:
            print ('ep is None')
        else:
            s = None
            while failures < failuresmaximum:
                try:
                    s = ep.read (64, 50)
                    print ('Success. len (s): ' + len (s))
                    counter = 0
                except:
                    failures += 1
            print ('Failures: ' + str (failures))
            if s == None:
                 print ('No data read')
            else:
               for ss in s:
print (str (ss)) # Not decoded; just to check: something received?

print ('Starting')
Gosub ()
print ('Ready.-')

I get this output:

Starting
Multimeter UT61B was found
Failures: 48
No data read
Ready.-

How to fix - any hint?
Regards - Joe
