Dear Steve, Blick, Felix, Steve, and WeatherCat troubleshooters,
Definitely not the best of circumstances, but welcome to the WeatherCat forum both Steves!
I just upgraded to beta of Sierra for Mac, but looks like I gotta uninstall it as weather cat keeps loading and crashing, loading and crashing.
I tried reinstalling the usb drivers, but beyond that I don?t know what to do.
Sorry but I'm a bit confused. What weather station are using with WeatherCat? You list WS-2813, is it this station?
https://www.lacrossetechnology.com/2813/I didn't know that WeatherCat supported this station.
Where did you get these USB drivers? Perhaps they haven't been updated for Sierra yet. There appears to be a problem with hardware manufacturers keeping up with Apple OS updates.
I wanted to send you crash reports but the forum page That tells how to do it is a broken link.
Sorry about that. I found another page:
http://www.qsatoolworks.com/faqs/6/crashlog.htmlI've updated the forum page to point to this page.
Looks like I can join the club. The Sierra beta doesn't seem to recognize the USB to UART bridge to allow my Vantage Vue console to talk to my iMac.
The Silicon Labs driver doesn't even officially support El Capitan, so I can't say I'm surprised Davis stations won't run under Sierra.
Unfortunately, it is usually a mistake to try to run WeatherCat on a new version of macOS until Stu gives the
"all clear." If you want to participate in the beta program is probably not wise to use your Mac that connects to your station because OS bugs are likely to reduce system stability which could lead to data outages.
If possible by all means revert back to an older version of OS X.
Cheers, Edouard
