Long time lurker here, registered just now to post this...
tldr: USBee makes (made?) logic analysers. They also produce their own Windows support software, the USBee Suite. That software appears to contain 'kill code' intended to disable knock-off clone hardware, but will also kill legitimately purchased USBee hardware.
In 2009 I was in the market for a logic analyser and decided on the USBee DX. At the time it was the top-of-the-line logic analyser from USBee. I purchased it primarily because their software supported user-developed protocol decoders, which I ended up making limited use of. I paid about $1600 at the time, which was a lot, but worthwhile for what I was doing with it.
A couple of years ago I stopped working for myself, and started working for "the man". I stopped using my own logic analyser. Until, that is, a few weeks ago when an old project turned up that needed troubleshooting. I downloaded the USBee Suite from the website re-installed it, and .... nothing. The logic analyser wasn't recognised.
Instead, an unknown device with VID 69C0 and PID 6909 showed up. The USBee DX should have been VID 08A9 and PID 0015.
Two weeks ago I emailed USBee and was advised to return it to fix an eeprom corruption, which I did. It was only after sending it that I thought to do some Googling. It turns out that USBee clone developers had reported the VID and PID of their hardware being changed to 69C0 and 6909 after running the USBee Suite software. Clearly, the anti-clone measures were too broad and had disabled my very expensive and legitimately purchased USBee DX, right when I needed to use it!
Two weeks later, and FedEx have been unable to deliver my logic analyser, so it is heading back. Unfixed. Apparently, the USBee guy I contacted gave me his *home* address, and he was "moving", so nobody was there to receive it.
So, let this be a warning. If you're currently using a USBee and their Suite - be very careful. Don't download any updates, and keep a copy of whatever installer you currently have. Use something like sigrok/pulseview instead. If you're looking at getting a USBee - don't. Any business that kills their own customer's hardware should be avoided. Well, I think something else should be done to them, but I'll refrain from describing *that*.
I'm currently planning to follow some instructions involving some Cypress utility software to edit the VID and PIDs myself. Maybe I can get it working.
