Hi,
Im trying to write a program for my USB device and I'm thinking of using
python to do this. The USB device is of my own making and it is
activated when one of the two data pins of the USB is given about 5V (or
similar to whatever the power pin is getting). Now I'm confused to if
the software to activate this can actually be written and how do I do
it? Any examples? I've seen pyUSB but it doesn't give me control over
the hardware and how much power is going through the data pins.
Unless I'm not getting something here.


Hi,
Thanks for all the responses but I forgot to mention that I have very little hardware understanding (at least in english) and the device itself it very simple and only needs about 5V power to be active. The problem here is that I want to control when the device is active using a computer so I thought USB might be a good choice since its simple (but didn't turn out to be). I'm open to any other suggestions on how I might achieve this hardware and software-wise (as in what interface should I use, etc). Also I'm trying to stay away from (complex) micro controllers.
Any ideas?
Thanks again
Astan
