HPS,
Thank you for your prompt response. I reviewed the webpage link you have
provided. I assume that would be a template for an entry in
/etc/devd.conf, however what I do not understand is what is the FreeBSD
equivalent of "FTDI_SIO" that can be called in the "action" line?
The first step I would like to accomplish is to simple make the device work
at the command line, then I can automate the steps within /etc/devd.conf.
Right now, I am struggling to find documentation that is fit-for-purpose
for USB. I would like to figure out if libftdi is the proper solution or
if I must use uftdi. If I need to use uftdi, then specifically how do I
force uftdi to attach to a custom vid/pid?
Regards,
-Burton

Your mind is like a parachute, it works much better when it is open.
