thank you!
this is the result: (with the programmer plugged into a USB port on the back of my iMac)
input: ls /dev/{tty,cu}.*
output: /dev/cu.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port /dev/tty.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port
(I do not know why it lists the /dev/cu.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port twice, there are actually 4 usb ports on the back of the iMac, I have nothing plugged in to the other three)
.
Can you try this to see if the device is connected?
ioreg -p IOUSB -l
ioreg -r -c IOUSBHostDevice -l
Unfortunately I don’t have an adapter to test the output here.
either of those two command lines produce several pages of output…
here is a sample from the first command, at the end of the output:

TS10 surpasses FWAA from any point of view, the most beautiful and performing light, a must have!
I dug this up: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/any-usb-to-serial-cable-driver-for-macos-montery.2320221/post-30542447 which says that only certain USB serial adapters that contain an FTDI chipset work on MacOS Monterey and higher.
That combined with the lack of output from this command likely means a driver issue, but I don't have a adapter here to confirm on my end
Command:
ls /dev/tty.usb*
Example output:
/dev/tty.usbserial-ftDI
thanks for trying… to help
my mac is on Sierra 10.12.6
is this supposed to be two separate commands:
ls /dev/tty.usb*
/dev/tty.usbserial-ftDI
it shows up as 2 separate lines in your post
Updated my post to clarify, the second line is the output you should get it the usb serial has been recognised.
“ftDI” is a placeholder for the serial number of the device.
understood, thanks
so yes, youre right, my mac is not able to see the TTL
it just responds with
ls: /dev/tty.usb*: No such file or directory
thanks again for trying to help… Im going to stop bashing my head against the wall for now… enjoy your Sunday, and
Happy Fathers day to all
Do you have access to any other computers? (A raspberry pi for example?)
> Do you have access to any other computers?
no, just this 2015 iMac…
Do I need to buy a new computer to be able to flash Anduril?
> only certain USB serial adapters that contain an FTDI chipset work on MacOS Monterey and higher.
or maybe just a different TTL Programmer?
I just noticed that you said your mac is on Sierra 10.12
Can you try these instructions? They apply to the CH340 chip you have on Mac versions earlier than Mojave 10.14
> Can you try these instructions?
thanks for the suggestion… might give it a try later… much appreciated
Jon, what CRI does your Opple measure?
99.5 Ra at 5509 CCT… but Im waiting for someone w a spectrometer to measure R9, and confirm the other values
Nice, thank you 
I thought my Opple was nuts… I get 99.6 CRI! This is the first 5800+k light that I actually am inclined to like. The output is so clean and so white that it does not hurt my eyes.
Definitely a fun little light. I like that the TS10 beam throws more, is less floody, than my FWAA.
I just ordered a Red TS10 w 4000K LEDs and Red Aux lights… woohoo!
Me too. I haven’t even gotten the ts10’s I ordered on June 6 yet and I just did the same!
I suspect the LEDs in the Ts10 are the same as the Wuben F5 NW tint setting…an advertised as 5700k, but I get about 5500k and 99 CRI. I dont think it’s possible, but maybe it’s close? It’s within 5%.
> What does 150/150 actually mean?
Anduril has 150 steps from lowest to highest output.
150/150 = highest = turbo,
1/150 = lowest
