Research direction
Locate the SignalHound USB_SA124B driver and its connection setup, then inspect how it selects an instrument when multiple devices are present. Check the driver dependencies and available platform support for Linux. Done means documenting device selection and Linux compatibility, or clearly recording the limits found.

Description
I have two questions regarding the driver for SignalHound USB_SA124B:
- I see that, unlike for example the EraSynth drivers, this driver doesn't take the COM port or any other selector as argument. How is it then possible to simultaneously connect and use two signalhounds? When I instantiate the class, it connects to one of the signalhounds connected to the PC, but I'm not aware of how the driver determines which instrument to connect to.
- This driver specifically makes use of Windows
.dll. Are Linux compatible drivers not available for this instrument?
