USB device without a user manual. Are there methods to perform "usb command scan"?

137 Views Asked by At

I received a device that comes with an SDK for python and software. This year my research group won't be renewing the software subscription because it is extremely expensive (>10k$/year). Understandable.

However, the python SDK requires a connection to the license, which we don't have anymore. I contacted the company to send me a user manual or a USB command list of their device, so I can code my own SDK, but to my surprise ((not really)), they refused.

So, we are stuck with a 60k$ device, which I'd really want to use.

Is there a way to "command scan" the device so I can try to develop my own SDK. Do I have to brute-force everything by asking the port every combination of letters, symbols, and characters? This would not be very efficient. Couldn't find much on the web.
