If the device does not appear in the /dev directory when connected, the device may need to be manually attached. 

To do this, enter the commands below corresponding to your controller: 

X-MCC4

Note:

 In some configurations, modem manager will try to query the device when it is connected. This won't affect 

device operation but can cause the port to be unavailable for several seconds. 

OS X 

USB Communications Device Class (CDC) devices are supported in 10.5 and above. No special configuration or 

drivers are needed. 

The controller will appear as a 

tty.usbmodem

 device. The kernel log (available through 

dmesg

) details the device 

detection and the assigned device, in this case 

/dev/tty.usbmodem1421
