prolific usb to serial comm port version 2012

My issue is with the Celestron telescope/mount driver. I have the latest ASCOM platform installed (6.) and am having no issues using ASCOM to control my moonlite focuser and my ASI camera.

If there are any people who successfully use Prolific USB to Serial cable with VirtualBox, can you explain the right setting? I put COM6 in that case, because the Prolific cable is recognized as or tied with COM6. I tried with Windows version of VirtualBox also, but it didn't seem to work either. can't we just use Prolific USB to Serial? In POrt/file path, I typed /dev/tty.usbserial.īut then, if the virtual machine is launched, it hangs at launching the virtual machine.įor obvious settings like IRQ = 4 and i/O Port 0x3F8 are not the ones which need to be checked. Under it, there are Port Number, IRQ and I/O Port, Port Mode and Port/File Path.įor Port Mode, I chose 'Host Device', because I would like to utilize the actual H/W.

On 'Ports' setting of a virtual machine, the Serial Ports tab presents 'Enable Serial Port' However, when I tried to make the VirtualBox recognize it, it doesn't seem to work. So, there is no question that /dev/tty.usbserial works. On a Mac, I tried a ZTerm to connect to a target board through the cable and worked. On a Mac host, the Prolific cable is recognized as /dev/tty.usbserial. So, I would like to make VirtualBox to recognize a Prolific USB-to-Serial cable. Its workflow requires an RS-232C communication. I'm trying hard to set up an embedded development environment which expect a Ubuntu as a host(dev) computer.
