I have a temperature data logger (Escort iMini Plus PDF) and I am trying to make it work under Kubuntu 14.04 / Wine 1.8 rc1.
The device comes with an USB cable and Ubuntu correctly opens it in mass storage mode.
The supplied software ("Escort Console Pro", available e.g. here) installs and opens fine (btw doesn't install with wine 1.6, only 1.
, but apparently wants to communicate with the device through a serial com port: when I open it it complains about no com ports (COM1 to 9) being available.After some research I think I have to set up a virtual com port linking to the usb device, but I really have no clues.
Below is the dmesg output when I attach the device.
Thank you in advance for your time,
Enrico
