Help — Using LinkM With Other I2C Gear
Posted: Thu Dec 02, 2010 7:21 am
Hi!
My goal is to use LinkM to send / receive I2C messages directly to another I2C gear.
LinkM is HID and so it isn't considered as a COM port.
Has someone find a way to use LinkM with another i2C gear on a Mac
I was hinted to consider "linkm-tool" and "linkm.sh" at the
linkm Google code repository.
My configuration is: Mac OS 10.6.5, X11, Xcode 3.2.4.
I don't have a strong experience on Terminal or Unix commands.
I had a look at the c_host/Makefile
1.
I installed both successfully, with MacPorts-1.9.2-10.6-SnowLeopard
2.
I installed it but the libusb.a is on the /opt/local/lib/.
Shall I modify
To put it simpler,

MacPorts is required, as well as libusb-legacy.# Mac OS X: "sudo port install libusb-legacy +universal" using MacPortsI installed both successfully, with MacPorts-1.9.2-10.6-SnowLeopard

Is libusb also required?USBLIBS = /opt/local/lib/libusb-legacy/libusb.aI installed it but the libusb.a is on the /opt/local/lib/.

- Has someone be successful compiling "linkm-tool" and "linkm.sh" on Mac?
or - Has someone find a way to use LinkM with another i2C gear on a Mac?
