OK,
Im running Mac OSX 10.6.4
So i have a Prolific 2303 Serial to USB port.
Im trying to use this with Z-Term to connect to Cisco Router.
I originally followed this guide:
Add a serial port to your Mac
my :
Product ID: 0x2303
Vendor ID: 0x067b
(as it read in my System Profiler)
Originally this was working. I could connect using Z-Term and all was well.
The very next time i started up the program and tried to connect, it could not find the usbserial device.
I have looked in my /dev/ folder and there is no entry for tty.usbserial
i used this command in Terminal :
ls -la /dev/tty.*
Not sure if thats the issue ? But seems to be missing a tty file?
Basicly in Z-Term when i go to Settings > Modem Preferences , there is no serial via usb option anymore (there was the first time i set it up)
Other thing i was thinking, maybe Z-Term locked the tty like Minicom can do on Linux?
Any help would be great, busting a blood vesstle on this one....
Cheers
