- Older USBLink (PS-2100) and Xplorer: doesn't read continuous sampling data
- Spark and Xplorer GLX: need to be able to collect data more than once (after first collection, they behave like the older USBLink and Xplorer)
- Native library not compiled for Mac PPC
- Native library not compiled for Mac 64bit
- 1st module slot only
- Native library not compiled for Windows 64bit
- No support from pasco to use the SW500 bundled usb adapter.
- Tries to update firmware and then can't initialize afterwards.
needs to be tested
Platform issues
On Mac:
- Spark and Xplorer GLX
- need to be able to collect data more than once (after first collection, they behave like the older USBLink and Xplorer)
- Older USBLink (PS-2100) and Xplorer
- Need to be able to read continuous sampling data
On PPC Mac:
- Fix driver so that it doesn't crash on load
On 64bit Mac:
- no support
On Windows:
- need to test older usblink and Xplorer
On 64bit Windows:
- no support
Library issues
- no support for multiple pasport modules on spark or powerlink
- occational "data read errors" - appears there isn't a way to clear/reset the incoming data buffer. It isn't clear which buffer has this issue and which platforms it is a problem on.
