ostrich2.py version
Ostrich 2.0 uses a (virtual) serial port for communication. The program will try to guess the name of the port, but may get confused if there are other FTDI devices connected (e.g. Arduino). If you're having problems connecting to the device you may have to explicitly declare which port to use:
ostrich2.py --device COM4 ...
