Install Phidget Drivers for macOS
Before getting started with the guides below, ensure you have the following components installed on your machine:
- You will need the Phidgets macOS Drivers
- You will need a version of Python installed on your machine (both 2.7 and 3.6+ are compatible with Phidgets).
The recommended way to install the Phidget22 Python module is using the PIP package manager.
Python versions 2.7.9+ and 3.4+ include PIP by default.
To install the Phidget22 Python module with PIP, simply open the Command Prompt (press the Windows key and search for "cmd"), and enter the command:
python -m pip install Phidget22
After unpacking the Phidget Python module, open the terminal (Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal). Locate the folder containing the Python module and enter the following command:
python setup.py install
This will build the module and install the Python module files into your site-packages directory.
