+====== Python host software: UCEcho.py ======
+It is also possible to access the device with other programming languages. In this case the firmware must be loaded using the FWLoader utility included in the SDK. For testing you can run UCEcho.jar first and then run this file. For Python be sure to install [[http://pyusb.sourceforge.net/|PyUSB]].
+The Python source code of the host software is:
