1.a. Supported Operating Systems
We support using the Orangutan SVP’s USB connection under Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Vista,
Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, Linux, and Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) or later. The Orangutan
SVP’s USB connection can be used to program the AVR, communicate directly with the AVR from a
computer, or communicate with TTL-level serial devices from a computer.
In Linux, the three virtual COM ports created by the SVP should appear as devices with names like
/dev/ttyACM0
,
/dev/ttyACM1
, and
/dev/ttyACM2
(the numbers depends on how many other ACM
devices you have plugged in) and you can use any terminal program (such as
kermit
) to send and
receive bytes on those ports.
In Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) or later, the three virtual COM ports created by the SVP should appear
as devices with names like
/dev/tty.usbmodem00022381
,
/dev/tty.usbmodem00022383
, and
/dev/
tty.usbmodem00022385
and you can use any terminal program (such as
screen
) to send and receive
bytes on those ports. The lowest number found in the device names is the Orangutan SVP’s serial
number.
