I am not sure what you mean as
"devices that have serial numbers?"

Currently devices are assigned serial numbers
ttyUSB%d on first come, first assigned basis
(see get_free_serial function).

So, if you plug 2 devices in different order,
they will get different assignment.

However, I think that if you only have one device
at a time, it should get consistent assignment
ttyUSB0.
