There is a connectivity issue with C-PEN Core for MAC / TS1 / MAC OSX High Sierra.
The problem is that unlike previous versions of OSX the operating system allocates the TS1 device if it is connected prior to C-PEN Core starting up. Whether this is a bug or a feature in High Sierra is yet to be established – but it is reported to Apple.
Work-around:
This should force OSX to release the TS1 allocation and allow it to connect to C-PEN Core.
You may also try THIS C-PEN Core update which includes a workaround that is likely to fix the problem. If you try it, please report back to us HERE.
If C-Pen software crashes due to “Unexpected error” or “Object reference not set to an instance of an object” it most likely depend on lack of/wrong versions of one or more of the three 3 Windows dependencies the software rely on. These three dependencies are C++ Redistributables 2005, 2008, and 2010.
To resolve the problem, it´s recommended to manually download and install all three.
