Data not read into mini mac - please help [RESOLVED]

[wond-o]

Hi

I have just got a mini mac and am trying to get WD to read in data from my VP1 serial data logger.  I have bought a serial to usb converted from Maplins and installed the driver.

I now have a connection called /dev/tty.usbserial

However when I run the 'usb reader' app, the message is 'cannot connect to station: underfined error: 0

please help!

Thanks, Nick

oh - and the usbreader now says 'USBWrite USB device is not open' over and over again!!

Hi
do not run the usbreader program
that is for a different station type (wmr100/200)

put /dev/tty.usbserial
in the manual entry in the com port setup

Hi Brian

I've just typed that in and no success

Is there anyway I can test the port?

Thanks

Nick

what shows under view, WS2010/WS2500 setup?
but from a email it sounds like you have it working now?

[wond-o]

Yes, thanks Brian

For some reason the WS2010 page was ticked as well as the Davis, once I ticked the 'none selected' box on the WS2010 page and re-set up the Davis page it worked immediately

Is there anyway to make the WD window larger as it only takes up around half the screen??

Cheers

Nick

at this stage you cant make it larger, but that might be something I can work on in the future

A lot of users including myself like the present screen size as we can see other windows while viewing WD. If you should make a change to the size, could you make sure there is an option to shrink, enlarge the between the present size and new (or adjustable ) sizes?
Thanks,
