Hi,
I have been reading here and trying to get my GARMIN 176C (marine)
unit to read something..anything using GPSOUT with FS9.
I believe that not all units are capable of this..I think.
Some people have been able to get some older units working and mine is about 4yr old..
I have tried all of the information listed in my "sentence" and nothing seemed to have worked.
Interval : 1000
4800 baud.
My most logical choice in the GPS was NMEA In/NMEA Out.
I have these for choices also:
GARMIN DATA TRANSFER
GARMIN DGPS
TEXT OUT
RTCM IN
RTCM IN/NMEA OUT
RTCM IN/TEXT OUT
NONE
It states in the manual for NMEA IN/NMEA OUT: " supports the input/output os standard NMEA 0183 VER 2.3 data, and sonar NMEA input support for DPT,MTW and VHW sentences."
Does this pretty much sum it up for "IM OUTA LUCK'??
:lol:
Also..how can I tell if I have the correct COM connected? Both COMS are being said in XP are enabled and working? The GPS is not read by windows.
Appreciate any help on this.
Kind regards
James
