I'm trying to get the RSA306B API to communicate using Python on a Linux OS. I keep getting an error when the example program does a search for exiting instruments. The program errors out when reading the the <strong>cyusb.conf</strong> file. <br>
<br>
Here is the unedited <strong>cyusb.conf </strong>file contents:<br>
<br>

I understand that, the locations of the LOG FILE and PID FILE directories must be changed in the config file. My issue is the proper formatting.<br>
<br>
I've tried the following without success:<br>
<br>
LogFile=/RSA/RSA_API_0_13_220/cyusbd.log<br>
PIDFile=/RSA/RSA_API_0_13_220/cyusbd.pid<br>
<br>
LogFile="/RSA/RSA_API_0_13_220/cyusbd.log"<br>
PIDFile="/RSA/RSA_API_0_13_220/cyusbd.pid"<br>
<br>
Has anyone successfully modified the modified the <strong>cyusb.conf </strong>file? If so, what is the correct format for specifying the above directories?
