Subject: usb serial programming
Date: Mon, 21 Jul 2014 03:19:00 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <pan.2014.07.21.03.19.00@verizon.net> (raw)

Not sure if this is the right venue for this question, please direct me to
the right place if it's not.

I have a C program that opens the serial port /dev/ttyS0 and sends commands 
(as strings) back and forth to a pan-tilt-zoom camera. That works very well,
but I want to use the camera with a Raspberry Pi, which of course does not 
have a serial port (RS232). One option is to use a RS232 to usb adapter and 
rewrite the C code for the usb port. So how do I go about that? Is
usb serial port programming possible and documented anywhere? 

Thanks!
