UsbPot: USB Digital Potentiometer
This is a section about the UsbPot device.
Feature 1
This is a subsection - cool! I think this will spill over into the same paragraph. I am trying to type something really intersting in this line to test how paragraphs work! I am going to try a new paragraph now.
Lets see what this looks like
Please consult the Eclectric website for more information about the UsbPot device and software. More info here - coming soon!
Feature 2
Here is a subsection.
Software
GUI software application (Windows)
A Graphical User Interface (GUI) application is available for the UsbPot device, currently only supported for use on the following platforms:
- Windows 7, 64-bit and 32-bit
- Windows 10, 64-bit and 32-bit
GUI software installation (Windows)
The UsbPot installer is packaged as a single Windows Installer (MSI) file. The installer is compatible with both Windows 7 and Windows 10, but please take care to download the correct package for your machine architecture (64-bit / 32-bit).
Windows 7
Important: the Windows GUI application installation package includes a device driver for Windows 7 that is required for use with the GUI application and also for command line operation.
Windows 10
The UsbPot device is able to connect to Windows 10 without requiring a device driver from the GUI installation package. Therefore, if you only intend to connect to the UsbPot device using a Command Line Interface (CLI), Python script or Terminal Emulator (e.g PUTTY) then you do not need to install the GUI application.
Command line operation
This is a section describing command line operation.
Command Line Interface (CLI)
Windows
C:\Users\Laptop>echo help > COM11
C:\Users\Laptop>echo 0x0800 > COM11
C:\Users\Laptop>echo 0x0800 > \\.\COM11
C:\Users\Laptop>echo "0x0800\r\n" > \\.\COM11
C:\Users\Laptop>echo "0x0800\r\n" > \\.\COM11
Linux
C:\Users\Laptop>echo help > COM11
C:\Users\Laptop>echo 0x0800 > COM11
C:\Users\Laptop>echo 0x0800 > \\.\COM11
C:\Users\Laptop>echo "0x0800\r\n" > \\.\COM11
C:\Users\Laptop>echo "0x0800\r\n" > \\.\COM11
Terminal Emulator
The UsbPot device can connect to any Terminal Emulator software application capable of connecting to a serial port e.g. PUTTY on Windows or Minicom/Screen on Linux.
Python
Here is subsection3.
Windows
Linux
