Use this for older Haas CNC Machines
I use this program to send files over XMODEM to a 2004 Haas. Works great. No issues. — phoonomnom
The best terminal emulator for Mac
I've tried a number of different terminal emulators and this is orders of magnitudes better than anything else I've used on Mac.
Working very well on my M1 Mac as a Universal Application.
Very nice and easy to use UI, but the highlight is the integrated USB drivers for most popular adapters. I don't think that this is expensive considering what you are getting, I think its great value for money. — €l€ctron
Best terminal emulator
By far the best terminal emulator for a mac out there. It. Just. Works. That's all you really need when trying to get into a serial connection. No fussing around with it. It just works. One of the best purchases I've made out there. — xStarseedx
