First question should be:
- Is libftdi really needed or is access to /de/ttyUSBx enough.
If you only need to send and read ascii command, libftdi is not
needed. Read the Thorlabs docs to find out what you need

- If you need libftdi, play with the examples. Ask if you have hit
  some problems that you attacked from several sides with no success.
