I installed the 2.2.18 version of the FTDI driver from the FTDI website, and the PID/VID is identical to the one from the smartinterface site...
sudo kextload FTDIUSBSerialDriver.kext doesn't give an error message...
After I plug it in get the following message in console:
18-11-12 22:41:56,000 kernel: USBF: 18368.889 [0xffffff8012448200] The IOUSBFamily is having trouble enumerating a USB device that has been plugged in. It will keep retrying. (Port 1 of Hub at 0x4000000)

with what software should I test on a windows pc to see if the cable is ok?
