[chirp_users] FT-70D Port for Mac
I am on a MacBook Pro 13 running 11.2.3.
When I attempt to download the radio to Chirp the port that is auto populated is /dev/cu/.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port. When I put the radio into ADMS mode and attempt to download it I get ‘ERROR’ on the radio and a message stating that the radio did not respond on Chirp. I am using the cable supplied by Yaesu.
Any ideas on how to get the radio to communicate with Chirp?
Thanks.

You do not have a driver installed that is compatible with the chip in your programming cable. When you choose the "Port", you will not select anything that has "bluetooth" in the description.

Do you know where I can download a driver? Is it a FTDI cable or some sort?

I’m having to use an adapter to plug in the USB to the MacBook. Could that be affecting things? When I enter the command in Terminal it says there is no such file or directory.
The odd thing is that when I use this adapter with the BaeFeng it works just fine.
Thanks again.

The FT70 has a USB driver built in. Use the USB Cable that came with the radio, or a USB cable that fits correctly as the radio socket is recessed. The USB Port will not show up on your Mac until the Radio is in the correct state for programming. Follow the onscreen instructions exactly to ensure the radio is in the correct state for download. Happy to try and answer any further questions. Nicolas

Thank you. What is really odd is that it worked once after I installed the FTDI driver on my Mac. I cloned the radio and was able to work with it. Later I realized that I had forgotten to put some repeaters on that I needed. This time when I connected the radio it will not work again. It’s doing the exact same thing as before. I can only see the Bluetooth port. Any ideas on what may be going on?

To qualify. the FT70 has a built in USB port, no external USB chip required.
The radio must be in programming mode for this USB port to become active. Nicolas

Yes, I understand that. When I put it into programming mode Chirp is not seeing the driver in the radio. It did once. Now it is not.

Think the chip is emulated by the processor in the radio. The cable is a str8 USB cable.
