Re: Getting Dashboard data in OS X 10.4.4?

Turns out you can use the VISA Interactive Control (VISAic as we call it), I didn't realize it was there on the Mac as well as on the PC. VISAic will allow you to open a MAX-style VISA test panel for a COM port to see what you can read, and you can use this post as a guide since it's very similar using VISAic and a MAX VISA test panel (starting around step 8, only you double-click the ASRLnn::INSTR entry instead of clicking an "Open Test Panel" button). If VISAic cannot see the USB-Serial converter or cannot communicate well with it, then you can guess where your problem lies...

VISAic can be found under Apps->National Instruments->VISA->"VISA Interactive Control".

Went into VISA, fiddled with it, added in one driver (yay for lucky guesses), and I have a result (see attachment).
