hi everyone!
i am trying control Thorlabs device with libftdi on my linux host.
could you please give me reference to simple example to do that?
Controllers Thorlabs use FTDI type FT232BM.
I have linux Debian host with  libftdi-dev, libftdi1, libftdi1-2 and 
libftdi1-dev packages installed on it.
find_all.c example code did not find my Thorlabs controller.

#gcc -lftdi find_all.c 
#./a.out 
Number of FTDI devices found: 0


#dmesg 
gives next message:
