Title: LED-Wiz on a Mac
Post by: yy4u on January 21, 2010, 01:07:23 am

Hey guys...I recently got a LED-Wiz to run my LEDs and joysticks.  It was my intention to use a spare Intel Mac I have for this project but I cannot seem to get the LED-Wiz visible using emulation software (VMWare Fusion and Win XP).  I tried the LEDBlinky (3.7.4) and the LED-Wiz sw but cannot see the device.  It is plugged into a powered USB hub. Any ideas ?

USB support of virtual machines is often limited to mass-storage, camera's, sound cards and other common stuff.
Try Bootcamp. Even better if you want to mess up a mac with Windows.

OK, actually booted into windows and got it working.  Having only used the LED-Wiz sw and LED Blinky to date, I am not finding the sw very intuitive.  Are there better options ?
