Can someone tell me how to setup 2 40h with serialio on a mac?
I'm a Reaktor user and use osc protocol, but I can't use Monome Serial
because the actual version doesn't work with reaktor osc messages.
Thanks

hmmm...

maybe a better question would be why Monome Serial isn't working with 
reaktor osc.

i think kid sputnik uses windows, but he would definitely be the person 
to ask about things involving reaktor

I think that monome serial does not work with Reaktor because it accept 
only integers while reaktor sends osc values as long.
It is a known issue and older versions of serialio have the same 
problem.
The latest version of serialio works with reaktor and one 40h but seems 
that it can't do the same with the 2nd 40h, or maybe I'm doing something 
wrong.
The box/press command works from both 40h, box/test works too. Other 
commands that control led state seems to work only on the 1st 40h.

yeah, its one of the most irritating things about reaktor, that there 
are only partial uses of integers (R5 only, in the 'core' layer that has 
no way of outputting to the outside world directly, even GUI).  when NI 
finally listen to me and add integer and string support to Reaktor, then 
ill be truly happy...


... yeah right, as if NI are just hanging on my every feature-request!

details please! what interfacing app are you using? are where (what 
situation) do these features not work for you?

interfacing app is MonomeSerial 0.11 on a mac g5.
I was testing new /frame command with Reaktor osc protocol and I have 
seen that it works fine only with cable orientation left or right.

With cable top orientation only the lowest bit of the last row seems to 
work. For example:
40h/frame 255 255 255 255 255 255 255 255 = only led 0 7 on
40h/frame 255 255 255 255 255 255 255 254 = all leds off
40h/frame 255 255 255 255 255 255 255 253 = only led 0 7 on
40h/frame 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 255 = only led 0 7 on
40h/frame 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 254 = all leds off
