If you have the Phidget Control Panel installed but still have no temperature readings, you may need to install the Phidget Control Panel Standalone. This is only an option if you have macOS 10.15+. It uses a driver extension instead of a kernel extension.

To install, follow these steps:

  1. Download Standalone Phidget Driver: Standalone Phidget Driver Download
  2. Open the .dmg file and then drag the Phidget Control Panel Standalone app icon to the Applications folder
  3. Open the Applications folder and double-click the Phidget Control Panel Standalone icon. Select Open in the window that appears.
  4. The Phidget Control Panel app will open, and your Phidget device should be listed.
