UserSpace and HID - Add Device ID

Using LinuxMint 21.3

 

I have been searching for answer to below question,  and have been referred to UserSpace as it may have an answer. Referral from    greg kh on Linusfoundation org.

 

Question:

Linux Mint 21.3 Using LibreCalc With USB RFID tag readers, (2 or more reader) most enter direct into open focus spreadsheet. However with no device number. Have same pid and vid. As the read from USB tag goes to the spreadsheet, can the device number eg 03 and the bus number eg 004  (either or both) be appended to the data read, into the spreadsheet. This would enable spreadsheet identify each reader and its location, to manipulate the tag reads by the location etc.

 

If so, how do I go about setting up?

 

This is a common issue with USB and HID, there is no device ID.   A standard terminal script for LinuxMint would be great and make the USB devices more usable.

Thankyou
