## Moniker

The moniker for a USB transport is either:

|

* `usb:<vendor>:<product>`

* `usb:<vendor>:<product>/<serial-number>`

`<vendor>` and `<product>` are a vendor ID and product ID in hexadecimal.

In addition, if the moniker ends with the symbol "!", the device will be used in "forced" mode:
|

the first USB interface of the device will be used, regardless of the interface class/subclass.

This may be useful for some devices that use a custom class/subclass but may nonetheless work as-is.

## Alternative
|
||||
The library includes two different implementations of the USB transport, implemented using different python bindings for `libusb`.
|
||||
Using the transport prefix `pyusb:` instead of `usb:` selects the implementation based on [PyUSB](https://pypi.org/project/pyusb/), using the synchronous API of `libusb`, whereas the default implementation is based on [libusb1](https://pypi.org/project/libusb1/), using the asynchronous API of `libusb`. In order to use the alternative PyUSB-based implementation, you need to ensure that you have installed that python module, as it isn't installed by default as a dependency of Bumble.
