The RTB scopes can make files accessible from its internal memory to a computer using a USB connection and the Media transfer protocol (MTP). Now the new 2.300 firmware of these oscilloscopes also allows screenshots to be saved to the internal memory, this possibility becomes more appealing.
Computers running MacOS, however, do not have MTP support build into their OS. But there are a few commercial offerings to do this.
After a bit of preparation, I decided to try Eltima’s
Eltima’s SyncMate (the demo mode did not allow to test this functionality, so I had to buy a license). Unfortunately no success: the syncing is very unreliable, and the mount function does not work at all. The client support of Eltima investigated the case, could not find a solution, and suggested me to use their
MacDroid product instead, which can mount (but not sync) MTP devices. Alas, that one does not work either, it mounts the drive, but all the files show up as empty files. (If I connect a Windows PC, they show up well.)
So… Does anyone have experiences with MTP software for MacOS that does work with the RTB oscilloscope – paid or free?
Thanks!
