How to handle elevation requirement on linux? Synaser RS232

Hi, I am using synaser to communicate with a serial port through RS232.
https://github.com/cpicanco/stimulus_control/blob/master/src/units/interface_rs232.pas
On linux it requires full privileges to do its stuff. So how you would solve this?? For debugging, for example, execute lazarus with sudo?? Any other option for asking for privileges during runtime somehow (any suggestions?)

Is there a way to completely avoid elevated privileges with TBlockSerial??

Thanks, this actually pointed me to right direction. I have found this:
https://gist.github.com/cbrake/4337154
Here are my steps:
Code: Bash
[Select]
[+]
[-]
# check your device specific constants
udevadm info
--attribute-walk
-n
/
dev
/
ttyUSB0
# create a new dev rule based on some constants
echo
'SUBSYSTEM=="tty", ATTRS{serial}=="A1004chl", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0403", ATTRS{idProduct}=="6001", MODE="0664"'
|
sudo
tee
/
etc
/
udev
/
rules.d
/
50
-usb-serial.rules
>
/
dev
/
null
# reload rules
sudo
udevadm control
--reload-rules
# re-add all devices
sudo
udevadm trigger
# test
ls
-al
/
dev
/
ttyUSB0
# you should reboot your system
sudo
reboot
Also the following answers help me understand the Linux device path logic:
