Close USB port via command line
 

Hi
Have a challenging project where I am trying to manipulate an MTP device (a camera) via the command line.
Unfortunately, when this camera is connected via USB, it becomes 'locked' and no other camera functionality is available.

I was wondering if there might be a way to simulate a disconnected USB by somehow closing that USB port via the command line.

I think this may be what you need:
