I have just got an old uConnect USB-serial adaptor. I was hoping
to use this for by GPS devices, but none of the GPS clients seem
to see the USB dervice as a serial port. Follows is the details as
supplied by 'USB prober':
Low Speed device @ 6 (0x19134000):
............................................. Vendor-specific device:
"uConnect"
Device Descriptor
Descriptor Version Number: 0x0100
Device Class: 255 (Vendor-specific)
Device Subclass: 1 (Vendor-specific)
Device Protocol: 0
Device MaxPacketSize: 8
Device VendorID/ProductID: 0x0741/0x0001 (unknown vendor)
Device Version Number: 0x0A00
Number of Configurations: 0
Manufacturer String: 18 "Momentum US Inc."
Product String: 52 "uConnect"
Serial Number String: 70 "April 27, 1999 10:00 AM"
From opening up the box I see that the chip is labelled:
CY7C63001A-PC
Hopefully someone will be able to tell me whether there is a solution
to get this working, even if it having to modify some USB-serial
driver.
