Hey Karl, tried to install the configuration utility today, as my FAR will be arriving next week. I installed Python and QT6 as you instruct in the wiki, downloaded the Github code, then I ran 'setup_mac.command' from finder.

I got the following message from Terminal:

Code: Select all

It can't seem to find a certain file. Any idea what I could be doing wrong? I'm on Mac Sequoia 15.6.1

I can see that the icon is in the dock of my mac, but it doesn't respond nor open if I click on it. Is that normal behaviour when no FAR is connected?

Hey, i verified that i under certain circumstances indeed get the same error that you did. I've made a fix and updated the install script and the new script works for me. Remove the old install and download the new version from github and try it now!

Please note that basically everything is disabled in the software until it has connected to an Ekdahl FAR - it's not a bug :D

Yes, got it working now! At least: I can open the FAR configuration utility. If all goes well, my FAR arrives tomorrow. Keep you posted!
