Hi,
I'm currently trying to establish a data exchange via USB UART between the well known MSP-EXP430f5438 experimenter board and my Macbook running OSX 10.8.4 (mountain lion).
I tried following the information given on the experimental driver website ( http://e2e.ti.com/support/interface/digital_interface/f/130/t/55982.aspx ). I already tried using the precompiled binaries as well as the source code compiled on my own Mac. It seems as if the device is recognized correctly by the system as it shows the board with the correct IDs under USB devices. Still, when I try to establish a connection using either CoolTerm or Screen the programs just freeze giving no error message.
Is there anybody who tried the same thing and succeeded or has hints on how to start debugging the problem?
Thanks.
Lasse
