If you want a program that can read devices on USB ports,
you can use a copy of UVCView for that. The details are in this

You should be able to get VEN and DEV info from a plugged

shows it as

307 sonixj 0c45:613c Sonix Pccam168

I was expecting it to say sn9c120 because that is what the computer
told me it was when i installed the USBPCCamPlus software all that
