  1. Thanks Pete - i'm going to try using the data in capability but looks like I will have to use their propritetary cable connector (goes with the power-in), then use a usb to serial to standad rs232 converter. Can't believe in 2009 we are needing to use RS232's. I was using them at college 20 years ago. Unfortunately the cable is on back order so i'll only be able to try it in a few weeks time. Colin
  2. Having read about the ability to link FSX with an external GPS I installed FSUIPC to use the Garmin as an external GPS fed via position data from FSX. It accepts NMEA in which seemed from the reading to be what was needed. Now I see that there is significant mention of Serial ports in the forums/literature and of course, being a recently released GPS it only has a USB. It connects hapily to the PC for it's updates etc but how can I get FSUIPC to download the FSX co-ordinates via the USB port? Thanks for your help. Regards, Colin
