Excellent work, thank you
I notice that in the new 3.2.8 panel, the variables displayed include vendor,product,model whereas before it was vendor,product,serial. The latter ties in with the option to remember device (by vendor, product, serial). If I put two similar devices in, the vendor,product,model will be identical but even though the serial numbers are not displayed is it still possible to differentiate those on the basis of different serial numbers?
The two devices do have distinct serial numbers of course:
I've answered my own question, the answer is no, it cannot differentiate between two identical devices so we cannot Remember a device by vendor,product,serial any more only vendor,product (and probably model because as the following screenshot shows I have two devices enabled with identical vendor,product hence the message Device with duplicate vendor and product must be set to "Remember port" is incorrect). I will check to see if it worked that way before the change.
