sawDATAQSerial

cisst/SAW component to interface via USB (virtual COM port) to DATAQ DAQ (e.g. DI-145)

Windows:

tbb

Linux:

Linux automatically creates serial device, such as ttyACM0.
Check default permissions on /dev/ttyACM0 using ls -l /dev/ttyACM0. On Ubuntu a typical output should be:
```
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 166, 0 Jul 27 16:44 /dev/ttyACM0
```
Then add yourself to the dialout group or whatever group has read-write permissions on the tty. Use adduser <user_id> dialout. You need to logout and log back in for that change to be effective. You can verify your user Id using the id command.
Example:
```
tbd
```

ROS:

Package name is dataq_serial_ros, main node example is dataq_serial_json
The option -t starts the node in text only mode, otherwise the node has a Qt based GUI
The option -n allows to set the ROS namespace (default is /dataq). This is useful if you have multiple DAQs
Example:
```
tbd (see optoforce example)
```

All:

The software expects a JSON format configuration file, tbd.
