Re: [Uisp-dev] mac os x and usb to serial adapter

[Joakim Arfvidsson]

This is probably the exact adapter I'm having trouble with. Picture:

produkter/en/6121.htm

This is a sample command you might want to look at:

/usr/local/bin/uisp -dprog=avr910 -dserial=/dev/cu.usbserial0  
-dpart=auto --erase --upload --verify if=rom.hex

You might want to change -dprog if you don't have that kind of external  
hardware. /dev/cu.usbserial0 is the default location of the serial  
port. Check out this:

/usr/local/bin/uisp


My problem with this adapter is that I have to reinsert it between  
every programming. When programming from AVR Studio in Virtual PC  
though, it works! And the usb-serial adapter is NOT taken over by VPC  
at the USB level, but only at the serial port level (COM1 is redirected  
to /dev/cu.usbserial0).


If anyone happens to know the chipset of the Aten adapter, I would like  
to know.
