Hi Yazu,
The link you supplied is interesting. I need to study it more to see if it solves my problem. I am still not sure what group to use. The plugdev group is the only one that mentions USB but according to the pmount man page it is for storage devices. It tries to figure out a filesystem type. The logic programmer does not use a filesystem. It has an embedded controller that needs to connect directly to the application program.
Thanks for the help.
Best regards,
Fred

gphotofs
GPHOTOFS(1) Debian GNU/Linux manual GPHOTOFS(1)
NAME
gphotofs - filesystem to mount digital cameras
DESCRIPTION
GPhotoFS is a filesystem client based on libgphoto2 that exposes supported cameras as filesystems; while some cameras implement the USB
Mass Storage class and already appear as filesystems (making this program redundant), many use the Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP) or some
other custom protocol. But as long as the camera is supported by libgphoto2, it can be mounted as a filesystem using this program.
As libgphoto2 is a userspace library for interacting with cameras, it is natural that if one to build a filesystem ontop of it, one should
use FUSE, and that is what I have done.
SYNOPSIS
mounting
gphotofs <mountpoint>
unmounting
fusermount -u <mountpoint>
NOTES
You must have permission to read and write the device. By default, devices recognized by libgphoto2 are created with read/write access for
group "plugdev", so users must be added to this group to use GPhotoFS.
LIMITATIONS
GPhotoFS currently can't add or remove directories, rename files or directories, add or modify files and get space information.
