Question

How to identify my device in the terminal application

Hello!

I have made an application after viewing a video on the subject, and I could establish a

connection between PC and my app (which is based on a F767 processor, but I don't think

it matters).

On Windows, it's simple. By plugging the device, it's automagically identified and I can

get the port number in the device manager.

On Ubuntu, I can lsusb to check if the device is detected, and I cane get a line saying

there is a "STMicroelectronic VCom port" or something like that.

To be accurate, the relevant line of lsusb output says:

Bus 001 device 032: ID 0483:5740 STMicroelectronic virtual COM port

Now if I use a terminal software like coolterm, I need an id like /dev/ACM0 or /dev/sstS0~31.

How do I know which one is "linked" to the above device?

Is there another program like CoolTerm, that automatically identifies the devices by name?

Thanks,
