|
|
|
USB(idVendor, idProduct, interface, in\_ep, out\_ep)

|
|
|
|
Based on pyusb and libusb-1.0
|
|
|
|
* ``idVendor`` is the Vendor ID

|
|
* ``out_ep`` is the output end point (default = 0x01)
|
|
|
|
Serial("devfile", baudrate, bytesize, timeout)
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Based on pyserial, default values are based on the defaults set by
|
|
DIP\_SWITCH\_1 on the documentation(hardware side).
|
|
