TMP117EVM: Trying to read temperature information from Linux (Ubuntu 18.04) without a GUI

Part Number: TMP117EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: USB2ANY,

The sensor is connected.  dmeg reports seeing a USB device.

Perhaps that is enough of a driver.  Don't know.  In any event, after reading the user guide and other documents, I don't see how to read the temperature data except by using a GUI browser connected to the Internet.  The computer doesn't have a GUI and it doesn't have an Internet connection.
Linux does have other temperature sensors (eg CPU) which can be accesses from under the /sys/class/hwmon tree.  I was hoping this device would be that easy, but it doesn't show up in the tree on that computer.
