Could the APC220 be used on mac OSX 10.8?

I was using it on mac OSX 10.8, but it could not communitcate with the APC220 on the Arduino.

Are there some tutorial?

Many thanks

I use APC220 to connect with my Arduino Uno.
As APC220 and  CP210x seems to be the same hardware I just use Silicon labs Driver.
Current MacOS version is compatible with 10.8 :

Of course I use an USB to TTL adaptor for the mac side (no friver needed for USB to TTL adpator as module driver does the job).
The second module is directly connected to RX TX Arduino ports (an powered correctly of course)

I hope it may help

have you installed the MAC USB-TTL drivers. It should work with that. The other problem you might run into is changing the settings for the APC modules. The software is only available for windows.
