I have a Lowrance Globalmap 5200C GPS.

Has anyone connected this model to a PC? If so, what did you use?

I can't find anything online, despite using varying phrases!


Page 17 of the 5200C manual that I just downloaded from
http://www.lowrance.com describes the NMEA-0183 connections. The
NMEA-0183 connections should be connected to a PC serial port, or to a
serial = USB adaptor.
