Mac and Edgeport?

Mike Reublin
I have an Edgeport USB to 4 serial port box. Neither Rumlog or Maclogger recognize
it. If I look in System Information, it's listed in the USB section. I don't find any
info on the Edgeport site.

Does anyone know if the Edgeport can be made to work on the Mac?

Apparently not, unfortunately:

Thanks, all. Not the answers I wanted, but that's life. It must not be using either
Prolific or FTDI chip.

I bought one of the USB to 4 port Serial converters from Edgeport and it
gives me a lovely BSOD ( this means blue screen of Death!!! Which causes a
PC to shut down.  Amazing feat since so little of the latest devices ever
cause this in WIN7).  I am in contact with the vendor who claim the latest
driver fixes this.  But it doesn't seem to for me.  I am looking for a
workaround and will post if I find one.  Anyway;  What  a mess when
restarting the PC.  Not even a crossover load from wrong devices and
firmware on the Elecraft site causes all this "stuff".  ( I would use
harsher works but the other half prohibits my profanity, at least when it is
recordable :-)).

73,
