How to send data to USB device in node.js using libusb

I have try to get data from device (USB thermometer), following this documentation, but I have not any result.

For getting themperature data from device, I should send the data like that 'd\n'.

This is my code:

var usb = require('usb'),
    term = usb.findByIds(65535, 2);

term.open();

var endpoints = term.interfaces[0].endpoints,
    inEndpoint = endpoints[0],
    outEndpoint = endpoints[1];

inEndpoint.transferType = 2;
inEndpoint.startStream(1, 64);
inEndpoint.transfer(64, function (error, data) {
    if (!error) {
        console.log(data);
    } else {
        console.log(error);
    }
});
inEndpoint.on('data', function (data) {
    console.log(data);
});
inEndpoint.on('error', function (error) {
    console.log(error);
});
outEndpoint.transferType = 2;
outEndpoint.startStream(1, 64);
outEndpoint.transfer(new Buffer('d\n'), function (err) {
    console.log(err);
});

After running I have got this:

D:\Dev\USBTest\node_modules\usb\usb.js:261
    t.submit(new Buffer(self.streamTransferSize), transferDone)
      ^
Error: LIBUSB_ERROR_NOT_FOUND

You forgot to call interface.claim().
