Hi Matt,
Short answer is the .inf file and some screwing around now has Joulescope working on my main computer.
Longer answer:
First with regard to my multiple attempts, all attempts on my main computer failed. It succeeded on a second W7 x64 system (my file server) but not on the first 2 USB ports that I tried.
By anonymous, here’s the picture:
If I then open the properties panel for this “WinUsb Device”, on the Details tab, Hardware Ids entry, it shows Joulescope’s VID/PID.
This happened regardless of USB port on my main computer, and I could not attach to Joulescope.
Following your instructions, here’s what happened:
2) ok
3) Windows shows that it is getting a driver from Microsoft Update Service (I think)
and when it succeeds, the anonymous entry appears.
4) ok
5) Joulescope is not displayed, anonymous entry per first pic is shown
6) ok
7) ok
8) ok , complains that the driver is not signed
9) ok
10 yes
11) ok
Problem appears to be fixed. I note that the serial/version number of the driver
your .inf installs is 6.1.7601.23403 which would suggest that it is more recent
than the versions that my system was installing without the inf file.
Thanks for the quick resolution to this issue. I hope my detailed description
might help others.
