finally got my jb4 usb cable and plugged it in to data log and update firmware.
I'm currently running the jb4 app for mac/osx and the status keeps saying "disconnection" i update the serial driver as well and still no luck. my jb4 is powered by the front 12v. and the ground wired to the big nut on the strut. fixed Last edited by kerm1t; 05-09-2014 at 12:30 PM.. |

Is there some type of hardware manager on the mac to see if the cable is connected to something?
Also, if it becomes a big issue, I recommend the "JB4 Mobile" app for the phone. I use it to update the firmware, log, and change maps . Way better than lugging a laptop around. |

Yup. When I plug in the USB to my phone, the JB4 app automatically pops up asking me if I want to load the app. If I load it, I can click "connect" and it will connect within a few seconds. From there I can log, change maps, update firmware and some other cool things. The app does cost some money, but its worth it for convenience. I was using it earlier today on the dyno and I sent the logs directly to BMS from my phone and just got everything squared away from there.
