Does driver require USB connection #7

Closed aterhorst closed 6 months ago

I have inherited a WXT520 with M12 connector cable that was wired up to a Campbell Scientific logger. The USB data cable is incredibly expensive. I assume your driver expects a USB connection?

the driver is written to handle serial, nmea, and sdi12 protocols

the driver defaults to 'serial' talking to '/dev/ttyUSB0', but if you have a direct serial connection instead of a usb-serial adapter, that should work. just specify the serial device.
