Make sure that you tell nqc (or MacNQC) that you are using a Scout. You can do this by adding -Tscout to the command line (NQC) or selecting the appropriate target in the preferences dialog for MacNQC. The USB tower and Scout seem to be very (...) (24 years ago, 14-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics.scout)
