Distribution of USB Network Gate technology inside your product can be achieved by installing the USB Network Gate SDK package on the end-user system.
To install USB Network Gate on the end-user computer, do the following:
1. First, on the developer's machine, activate USB Network Gate using the SDK activation code you received from us after the SDK license purchase.
To do this, use the command eveusbc license <SDK activation code>.
(The utility can be found in the folder “SDK” in the Electronic Team DMG file.)
Then, copy the file that can be found under the following path: /var/db/eveusb.db
to /var/db on the end user’s machine.
2. Depending on your macOS version, install either EveUSB_SDK.pkg or EveUSB_SDK-IOUSBHost.pkg.
For silent installation of EveUSB_SDK.pkg on Intel-based computers with macOS 11 Big Sur and earlier use:
sudo installer -pkg EveUSB_SDK.pkg -target /
For silent installation of EveUSB_SDK-IOUSBHost.pkg on computers with macOS 12 Monterey and later or M1 computers with macOS 11 Big Sur use:
sudo installer -pkg EveUSB_SDK-IOUSBHost.pkg -target /
Note: The EveUSB_SDK-IOUSBHost.pkg package is designed to work without using macOS kernel extensions.
Note: If using EveUSB_SDK-IOUSBHost.pkg on M1 computers with macOS 11 Big Sur, you can only share USB devices attached to your local machine. You cannot establish client connections to remote devices.
3. Launch the USB Network Gate daemon by executing the command below:
sudo /Library/Frameworks/EveUSB.framework/Support/eveusbd install
EveUSB_SDK.pkg contains the following components:
● /Library/Frameworks/EveUSB.framework
● /Library/LaunchDaemons/us.electronic.eveusb.daemon.plist
Note: Before the installation of the EveUSB SDK, make sure that other USB Network Gate versions, that may be present in your system, are uninstalled.
