Title: Update MacENC
#9
The Actisense NGT-1 works with FTDI chip driver on OSX 10.7.5 without problems. Since the file says it supports up to OSX 10.7 I didn't upgrade.

I tried using it on the new macbook air with Mavericks (OSX 10.9.5) installed on it and I couldn't get it to work with the same driver.

I googled it and found out that Apple have a new driver for FTDI chipset. Support for this driver has to be added to the application using it though and you have to unload that driver for the old FTDI driver to work.

https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/...index.html

I found this page and followed the steps listed and I got it to work, with the same settings as before in MacEnc.

Although this information can also be found on the FTDI chip own site.
