Step 2: check the volume 

Many devices have built-in safety settings that reduce the volume when an audio 
device is connected using the headphone jack. Please check that your volume is 
turned all the way up to 100% after plugging in the EdComm programming cable to 
your device.  

Some devices, especially in Europe, have a hard lock on volume whenever an audio 
device is detected. This 

means that the device is ‘locked’ to only deliver a maximum 

volume of approximately 75% of the device max volume when an audio device is 
detected. To correct this, go into the device’s settings and disable the hard lock, to 
enable the device to emit true full volume, even with an audio device plugged in.  

Step 3: check your browser 

Ensure you have a compatible web browser installed. We recommend running all of 
the programming applications using Chrome for best results. 

 

Setting up Mac computers 

Step 1: check the volume 

Some Macs experience audio clipping errors when attempting to program Edison. If 
you experience these issues, please try dropping your volume from 100% to 
between 50% and 90% instead. 

Many devices have built-in safety settings that reduce the volume when an audio 
device is connected using the headphone jack. Please check that your volume is set 
to the correct volume level after plugging in the EdComm programming cable to your 
device.  

Step 2: check your browser 

Ensure you have a compatible web browser installed. We recommend running all of 
the programming applications using Chrome for best results.
