If I have multiple Arduinos connected over USB to a Linux computer, and they show up as
- /tty/ACM0
- /tty/ACM1
- /tty/ACM2
How can I identify which Arduino is which without connecting to them via serial connection? Is there a serial number or a unique id on the Arduino?
Thank you for your time.
Situation: Uno R3, Mega, Leonardo with /ttyACM[1,2,3]
