HEAVYWEATHER AND A MAC
We do not support the Mac for the 2800 Series software, including Windows
running in virtualization mode on a Mac. We are aware some users succeed, but
the most common challenge reported is coordinating the USB port use correctly
with the virtual environment. There may be differences related to drivers, etc. that
prevent connection.

Data uploads must be from a Windows PC, but a Mac browser may be used to
monitor and manage your data.
