-- Update June 2018 -- Silabs contacted us and says they have a new and improved version of the functionality that this package provided. See https://www.silabs.com/products/development-tools/software/interface (You're looking for the USBXpressHostSDK package) We're not using these parts anymore, so have not verified this in anyway, CP210xManufacturing Library for CP210x -------------------------------------- Release packages contain binaries built using Ubuntu 11.10 Desktop 32-bit and Ubuntu 12.04.1 Desktop 64-bit. These binaries may not be compatible with your system, in which case it may be necessary to build the CP210xManufacturing binaries using make. CP210xManufacturing linux library release contents -------------------------------------------------- - /Common/ - Shared/common source - /CP210xManufacturing/ - CP210xManufacturing library source code - /nbproject/ - Netbeans project that uses the library and test main app makefiles - /Release/Linux/ - CP210xManufacturing library header file and output directory for main and libslabhidtouart.so.1.0 (released with prebuilt 32-bit Ubuntu 11.10 binaries) - /Release/Linux/x86_64 - Contains 64-bit binaries (released with prebuilt 64-bit Ubuntu 12.04.1 binaries) - /main.cpp - Basic test app that compiles CP210xManufacturing source w/o using CP210xManufacturing.so - /Makefile - CP210xManufacturing.so.1.0 makefile - /Makefile-main-linux - main makefile - /FAQ.txt - Frequently asked questions regarding building and using the CP210xManufacturing library. - /ReadMe.txt - Explains how to build and use the CP210xManufacturing library - /SharedObjectLibraryUsage.txt - Explains how to use CP210xManufacturing.so - /SiliconLabs.rules - udev rules file for Silicon Labs USB devices (VID = 0x10c4) Dependencies ------------ 1. libusb-1.0 On Ubuntu: $ sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev 2. g++ On Ubuntu: $ sudo apt-get install g++ Build CP210xManufacturing ------------------------- Build an example console app, main, that uses the CP210xManufacturing source files to communicate with a CP210x: $ make -f Makefile-main-linux Builds /Release/Linux/main Build CP210xManufacturing.so.1.0, a shared object library that exports the CP210xManufacturing library API $ make Builds /Release/Linux/libslabhidtouart.so.1.0 See SharedObjectLibraryUsage.txt for more information on how to use a shared object library. Configure Your System to Allow libusb to Access Your Device ----------------------------------------------------------- CP210xManufacturing uses libusb-1.0 to communicate with the CP210x devices over USB. In order for CP210xManufacturing to recognize your device, you must first copy a udev file to /etc/udev/rules.d/. This udev file will automatically enable read and write permissions for a device with the specified USB vendor ID. Unplug and replug your device after copying a udev file for the permissions to take effect. On some systems, it may be necessary to reboot the machine before the new rules are applied. CP2101 (VID: 0x10c4 PID: 0xea60): - Copy SiliconLabs.rules to /etc/udev/rules.d/ Other: - Modify an existing udev rules file for the required vendor ID SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="10c4", MODE="0666" SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", ATTRS{idVendor}=="10c4", MODE="0666" - or - (optionally add a required product ID) SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="10c4", ATTRS{idProduct}=="ea80", MODE="0666" SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", ATTRS{idVendor}=="10c4", ATTRS{idProduct}=="ea80", MODE="0666" - SiliconLabs.rules does not specify the product ID and will therefore allow read/write access to all Silicon Labs USB devices with the Silicon Labs VID (0x10c4). The product ID is optional and will further restrict which devices the rules file will affect.
