Hi Fredrik,

This does not seem to work for me with the sierra usb device.
 usbdevs -v
Controller /dev/usb0:
addr 1: full speed, self powered, config 1, UHCI root hub(0x0000), VIA(0x0000), rev 1.00
 port 1 powered
 port 2 addr 2: full speed, power 100 mA, config 1, USB MMC Storage(0x0fff), Sierra Wireless(0x1199), rev 0.00

camcontrol devlist -v
scbus0 on umass-sim0 bus 0:
<Aircard TRU-Install 2.31>         at scbus0 target 0 lun 0 (cd0,pass0)
<Sierra Wireless Storage 2.31>     at scbus0 target 0 lun 1 (pass1,da0)

camcontrol cmd pass1 -c '01 00 00 00 00 00' -i 1 i1
camcontrol: error sending command
[root at sclark /usr/ports]# camcontrol devlist -v
scbus0 on umass-sim0 bus 0:
<Aircard TRU-Install 2.31>         at scbus0 target 0 lun 0 (cd0,pass0)
<Sierra Wireless Storage 2.31>     at scbus0 target 0 lun 1 (pass1,da0)

Still shows as cd device.

 usbdevs -v
Controller /dev/usb0:
addr 1: full speed, self powered, config 1, UHCI root hub(0x0000), VIA(0x0000), rev 1.00
 port 1 powered
 port 2 addr 2: full speed, power 100 mA, config 1, USB MMC Storage(0x0fff), Sierra Wireless(0x1199), rev 0.00

Thanks,
Steve
