Hi, if two identical FX2-based devices are plugged into the PC, how can I discern one from the other? I do not have the ability to do this in the EEPROM. But as I look through the USB Properties in Device Manager, I see Address is set differently for each device (right click on USB device, go to details, then property = address)
However, this doesn't seem to coincide with the value I get when I look at the device property USBAddress
Can someone shed some light on this? What is the best way to communicate with two identical devices connected to the same PC?
Thanks

Hi,
Can you tell us more about your project implementation so that we can help you out. Why cant you use different PIDs?
Thanks

The device is a USB voltmeter. The user might want to have one connected, or 4 connected. It doesn't make sense ot have different PID for each.

You can add serial number string descriptor. Use the serial number to identify the device you're interacting with.
