How to give permission to ANT+ USB stick on Ubuntu:

Create a rule file:

$ touch 50-move-stick-mini.rules

$ vim 50-move-stick-mini.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0fcf", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1008", MODE="0664", GROUP="plugdev"

$ mv 50-move-stick-mini.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/

Check permissions and groups:

$ ls -l /dev/ttyUSB0
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 0 Jan 25 17:00 /dev/ttyUSB0

Check user membership:

$ groups <username>
$ id -Gn <username>

Add user to a group if needed: $ sudo usermod -a -G <groupname> <username>

Logout and Login for changes to take effect.
