Hi,
I have just got an old uConnect USB-serial adaptor. I was hoping
to use this for by GPS devices, but none of the GPS clients seem
to see the USB dervice as a serial port. Follows is the details as
supplied by 'USB prober':
The key here is "Vendor-specific." No class driver provided by the OS
will work with this device.
That's true of almost all USB serial adapters, BTW. Someone on the USB
list mentioned one that appears to be a CDC device so the system treats
it as a modem.
Device Protocol: 0
Device MaxPacketSize: 8
Device VendorID/ProductID: 0x0741/0x0001 (unknown vendor)
Device Version Number: 0x0A00
Number of Configurations: 0
Manufacturer String: 18 "Momentum US Inc."
Product String: 52 "uConnect"
Serial Number String: 70 "April 27, 1999 10:00 AM"
From opening up the box I see that the chip is labelled:
CY7C63001A-PC
Hopefully someone will be able to tell me whether there is a solution
to get this working, even if it having to modify some USB-serial
driver.
More like "write a USB-serial driver." Since the device is
vendor-specific, there's no way to know how the device operates without
information from either the adapter vendor or the vendor of the
particular USB serial part inside the adapter.
If time is of the essence, I'd go buy an adapter that ships with Mac
drivers.

Good luck,
