    Last time I checked, RT Systems cables use FTDI USB to Serial chips
    but they are programmed with non-standard USB VID:PID to make them
    &quot;proprietary&quot;.  If you look at <a href="http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids" target="_blank">http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids</a> and
    search for &quot;RT Systems&quot;, you can see a short list of some known
    VID:PID combinations that Linux will then load the FTDI kernel
    module and treat the USB device as a serial port.  For unknown
    ports, I don&#39;t know if you can fake out Windows to recognize RT
    System cables as a standard serial cable but you CAN do this with
    Linux for ANY VID:VID using either some USB or UDEV tricks.  <br>
    <br>
    I wrote the following up some time ago to either temporarily or
    permanently recognize the RT Cable and create a /dev/ft857_prog
    serial device instead of a generically named /dev/ttyUSB0 device:<br>

    Permanent USB recognition across reboots (this example is for one of
    RT Systems cables for a Yaesu FT857):<br>
