The protocol (ftp://)from the link is wrong, ftp is not supported by the esrf site (which one is told when actually ftp'ing there. Try http://ftp.esrf.eu/pub/expg/FIT2D/, it works for me

Juergen Bosch and Ben Eisenbraun were quick to forward my request to Dave Gohara who's at WUSTL now. Dave was equally quick in pointing out that a universal binary of the USB-to-serial driver resides on his homepage (http://smackfumaster.com) in the Software -> Crystallography and EM Binaries section. Thank you!

All it takes is installing the driver, rebooting, and plugging the adapter and dials in. Now I just have to find out which programs will actually take orders from dials.

Hey all,

I've been trying to get SGI dials to work with a MacBook Pro running
Leopard.  I can't get my digitus USB-to-serial adaptor to work.  The
supplied driver is PPC only.  As the chip is from Prolific, I tried the
driver from sbgrid (David Gohara's work).  That also seems to be PPC only.

I tried to contact David Gohara directly, but he doesn't appear to be at
Harvard anymore.  Does anyone have dials working with a Leopard Intel
Mac and would like to let me in on the secret?

I should probably be using a PowerMate, but the dials were lying around
collecting dust.  I thought I might give them a second lease on life.

Thanks.


Andreas
