[IGSTK-Developers] IGSTK on OS X, Dashboards

[David Gobbi]

Hi Kevin,

I tried out IGSTK on my old Mac, and SerialCommunication and everything else is working. It looks
like supporting OS X will require very little effort.

To use my USB to RS232 converter with the Mac, I set the following variable in CMake:

IGSTK_SERIAL_PORT_0=/dev/cu.USA19H813P1.1

The "USA19H813P1" portion is the model number of the converter that I use, the Mac uses this as
part of the device name.  Don't know why, since on Linux the converter appears generically as
/dev/ttyUSB0, and on Windows it just gets mapped to COM2: or one of the other COM devices.

When we meet in DC I'd be curious to hook up your Mac laptop to the Polaris and see how she flies.

I've attached my OS X dashboard script.
