After installing Velocomp Aero for Mac, any subsequent updates will happen automatically through the app.

ALSO: if you have never used Isaac software before, you will also need to install Silicon Labs drivers, attached. NOTE: IF ISAAC IS WORKING ON YOUR MAC, YOU WON'T HAVE TO INSTALL THE SILABS DRIVERS.

Able to download the Universal Aero software. SiLabs installation was completed. Connected the PowerPod V5 via USB-c to micro-usb cable. Still not able to see the PowerPod in the software. Running M1 iMac with macOS 14.5.

Any thoughts or troubleshooting you can point me toward

I am now able to connect to the device using Device>Connect>Dropdown to usb port. There is confirmation message saying that the device is connected, but the USB icon does not turn green and the only ride shown is the demo


DO you have any advice or thoughts on how to solve this problem

There is no "Device>Connect>Dropdown" menu item in VA, so I don't know what you are talking about...

Reload the SiLabs driver, and make sure you check "System Settings/Privacy and Security/Security"...and allow the SiLabs driver to load.

John, Sorry for the confusing statement...

I have tried to add screen shots but have been unsuccessful

I guess I meant to say Isaac. Within Isaac and VA, Device->Setup Device->yields no result if I follow the instructions to Connect the PowerPod and turn it on.

Within Isaac, if I follow Device-> Connect -> Dropdown to /dev/cu.usbserial-0001 and test the connection. It indicates that the device is connected but the USB icon never turns green.

Should I even be bothering with Isaac anymore? Is all the functionality incorporated within VA?

I have installed the SiLabs driver 3 times now and to no avail. I will make another attempt

Apparently 4 times is a charm. So it is now connected to VA. Weirdly 49% of memory is used but none of my rides for the past 2 years is on the device..

Either way. I guess I will have to do a cal ride now according to the on-screen instructions. Is that correct?

You can't run Isaac and VA at the same time; only one of them will get access to USB and it will block the other.

You don't need to do a new cal ride. Post your next ride here and I will take a look.

You might want to erase your memory...
