1.4. Supported Operating Systems

The Simple Motor Controller USB drivers and configuration software work under Microsoft Windows XP, Windows
Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Linux.

We do not provide any software for Mac OS X, but the controller’s USB virtual COM port is compatible with Mac
OS X 10.7 (Lion) and later. As a result, the Simple Motor Controller can be controlled from a Mac, but a Windows or
Linux computer is required if you need to change any of the configuration parameters.
