Some people have had issues using the ammeter/harness on a Mac. The instructions do not give any ideas on how to determine what the "path" to the device is, which is the name of the virtual serial port it ends up being installed under. This needs to be tested on a Mac, and the instructions updated with clear instructions on how to determine the path on all three main OS choices we support (Linux, Mac, Windows).

I think the correct solution for this bug is to integrate the pyusb module (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/libusb1) and enumerate the connected USB devices to find the ammeter based on vendor/product IDs.
