Make y'all a deal - I'll teach you English and you teach me Python...  cheeky

 

More seriously, thanks for the recommendations.  Will hunt a few of them down.  Online tutorials are good too, but I still like books on paper.  Among other things, you can throw them across the room in frustration, and they're often little the worse for it.  Can't say that for a PDF on a PC.  S.

 

PS - One thing I've not seen yet (I'm sure there's a way) is hunting down exactly which COM port the USB<->RS232 gadget winds up at.  I've seen some seriously silly numbers, and they're not that hard to hunt down in something like the Device Manager, but a program to do so automatically might have to ramble through lots of them sending some query and expecting some unique response.  Easily done, but more hassle...  S.

I've never done it automatically.

Under both Linux and Windows I've always just checked for the new device.

To make matters worse, not closing a port properly can make it unavailable for a while.

Unplugging and plugging can cause a name/number change.

 

On Linux, I think that the output from lsusb can be used to find the right entry under /dev .

The line

Bus 002 Device 003: ID 03f0:5611 Hewlett-Packard PhotoSmart C3180

is for one of my printers

'Tain't a virtual serial port.  I don't have any at the moment.

Its VID:PID pair is 03f0:5611 .

Its device node is /dev/bus/usb/002/003 .

I hadn't thought of enumeration as a search term.

The contained link to pyserial documentation is better:

https://pythonhosted.org/pyseria... wrote:
Tools
serial.tools.list_ports

This module can be executed to get a list of ports (python -m serial.tools.list_ports). It also contains the following functions.

serial.tools.list_ports.comports()
    Returns:    an iterable that yields ListPortInfo objects.

A ListPortInfo object normally contains the information needed to select the right virtual serial port.

I've been battling with this for a while now, not with python but in general,  i got my custom board with ftdi usb-uart chip and have named it with their own tool, sadly windows does not want to give this information easily.(Sure it still displays the name i'm looking for from settings -> other devices, but nowhere else)

 

if you only ever going to have one usb gadget with same device descriptor + vid/pid on your system, then you can find it many ways.

Yes!

 

It really is a pain when you have something connected to a COM port, then some other totally unrelated app starts squirting stuff at it!!

It can also mess-up the app which is supposed to be using the port if your "scanner" happens to to be using it at the point that it tries to open it ...

 

 

EDIT

 

This has nothing specifically to do with Python - dunno if it's possible to split out to a separate thread?

Yeah, I was thinking about that when I wrote it, and decided that while it's easy enough to enforce among all MY gizmos, I often have plugged in things that are not mine.

 

Enumeration sounds like a better idea, although I believe it'll only tell you what ports exist, not what's plugged into them.

 

Ideally, we here at AVR Freaks could standardize on something! [Obligatory XKCD  https://www.xkcd.com/927/

 

This is what the USB-IF organization does, passing out vid/pid pairs, but they want a thousand bucks ($US, when I last checked) each to register, and to confirm they're unique.  Not really practical for hobbyist gizmos.

 

My thoughts were more along the Hayes AT command set, ie. a guard time (say at least one second of quiet), a sequence of three characters (say ===, where Hayes uses +++) followed by another guard time (one more second).  Then the device returns a string (say up to 255 chars, null terminated, with 'probably unique' descriptive bits in it (author's name?  device name?  64-bit hash of the .hex file?).  It's then up to the software to agree, "Yep, that's who I want to talk to" or "Sorry, wrong COM number."

 

Might be more complicated than it has to be, but would work on multidrop buses and such because the guard times prevent the sequence from accidentally showing up in a bitstream (yeah, technically a sensor could report exactly === as data after more than a second idle and then have nothing more to transmit, but the chance of that is akin to the chance of a hash collision in our 64-bit space.  So there.  cheeky)

 

S.

 

PS - Note that the hash of the hex could be calculated offline, if you exclude the hash itself from what's being hashed.  Else, when you try to program it into the PROGMEM as the hash of everything else the resulting hex file will hash to something else...  Whee!  Or stick it into EEprom.  S.

 

Edited to add PPS:  If you wanted to be snotty, you need merely calculate the hash once, of revision 1.0, then always deliver that hash value to the software, and it'll act as if it's the same thing.  This might simplify distribution (the software can always be the same) but cause trouble when the software is trying to use a feature that isn't in that revision...  S.

 

PPPS: If you really wanted to be snotty, set the hash to all zeros and increment it when you feel like it.  Saves hashing, I guess, and sounds like good fun until you realize that someone else had exactly the same idea, and lo - hash collisions!  (not really).  S.

Yes - that is my point.

 

So long as it all stays on your own machine, it remains your problem - so that's fine.

 

The Big Issue is when someone ships this kind of thing in an app to be installed on other people's machines...

Indeed.

 

Although the Windows Device Manager often displays extra info; eg,

 

 

so that could possibly help ...

Yup, othervice it would show the standard name from driver manufactor which comes from driver files, ie. Ftdi let's people change the descriptor name of the chip, but in the device manager it still shows the standard "USB serial stuff" because that's what the driver's report. Anyway, at the late night yesterday, I found a way to get the name which the chip itself reports and not the driver's, with help of D2XX driver instead of VCP driver, this obviously only helps aslong as I use ftdi devices for the USB comms.

But if you program an AVR-USB with LUFA you can achieve the same.

 

So if you want "identifiable" interfaces don't buy ebay USB-TTL/RS232 devices but make up boards with something like a mega8U2 and program them to do CDC-ACM with LUFA and set the string in each to something unique ;-)

 

Now you can enumerate and look for the right unique string.

Well Atmel have done Dean a HUGE favour and given him some of their VID space.

 

From:

 

http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids

	2066  LUFA Multiple Report HID Demo
	2068  LUFA Virtual Serial/Mass Storage Demo
	2069  LUFA Webserver Project
etc.

So if you use AVR you get access to a ready made VID/PID to use anyway. After that it's just a question of  editing a string in the config.

Now you can enumerate and look for the right unique string.

 

You can also identify atleast FTDI chips since string descriptor can be changed with FT_Prog.

Proplem is while from setting's you can actually see that the descriptor got changed, for god knows why device manager is only showing info which the driver .inf files provide without a clue about the change in descriptor, neithed does "managementObjectSearcher" or registry know anything about the name shown in settings.(Well registry can show it if lucky, but its not reliable way of identification since noone guarantines that the info is in there).

 

But yeah, by using D2XX driver instead of VCP, i managed to get the name i'm looking for from FTDI set of apis, which makes it possible to identify the one you look for programatically for autoconnect feature.(which is kinda needed for backround service)

If one was going the LUFA route then line 194 here...

 

https://github.com/abcminiuser/l...

 

As you can see that example project would currently show "LUFA USB-RS232 Adapter" there. Could just as easily be "Fred Bloggs adapter 0037" to make it easily findable.

 

BTW above in the file you see:

 

https://github.com/abcminiuser/l...

 

so it's a 0x204B from the list above.

Nice of them.  Before LUFA existed I tried to get a u2 chip working, and Atmel's sample code wouldn't even compile.

 

Hopefully Dean is now on a sailboat drinking from skinny glasses with little umbrellas in them, because Atmel couldn't get their own code working.  They owe him, in a big way.

Is it possible the ebay thingies have unique serial numbers?  You can run a program to find out.  I use USBDeview.

 

I make the serial numbers different the lazy way.  I use the "unique name" stuff in the xmega chips.  Wafer number, batch number, location on wafer, etc.  I don't know if other chips have this.

 

With winusb, and probably libusb too, I find VID and PID irrelevant.  I pick numbers out of the air.

Windows can generate a GUID and GUID is mentioned in WCID.

 

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.guid.newguid(v=vs.110).aspx

https://github.com/pbatard/libwdi/wiki/WCID-Devices#defining-a-device-interface-guid-or-other-device-specific-properties

...

(second paragraph)

... and especially the provision of the Device Interface GUID that you want your device to be accessed with.

I think I found the problem with the Win10-1703.  The OS was apparently clobbered by my Hauppauge tv tuner PCI card driver. It clobbered another Win10 install, with different symptoms, also.  

 

I do mix up winusb and WCID.  I don't know where one stops and the other starts.  I got it working 8 or so months ago, but I forget what I've done yesterday.

 

I apparently find my winusb devices by telling Microsoft's SetupDiGet..... to look for the class interface GUID.

 

I didn't have Windows generate one.   I made my own.   "{42314231-4231-4231-4231-423142314231}\0"

 

I guess I should mention I copy it into the descriptor with my patented Copy_to_wide() function that inserts the nulls.

dmesg|grep tty

This will give you a list (among which) are the initialisation of al tty devices and the time they were discovered.
