Capn v.6.1 question??
Really? I'd better call Gateway and tell them they shouldn't have put
those serial ports in. I have 7 serial ports supported under XP on this laptop. Doug s/v Callista "rayjking" wrote in message .. . Steve, what is the operating system or dos? you know xp does not support serial ports. ray "Steve" wrote in message ... I have a dedicated GPS module on the USB port of my laptop. Works great and the Capn finds the data from the GPS without a problem.. This is a one way communication with the laptop. GPS talker, Laptop Listener. However, if I want to send course correction via NMEA 183 sentence, they have to go out a serial port. I can't seem to find a way to tell The Capn to send this info out a standard serial port, once it finds the GPS data on the USB port. I haven't been able to get any help for Nautical Technologies since I haven't upgraded my software since v. 7.x came out. My laptop isn't fast enough to run the lastest version. Anyone have any experience with this or suggestions?? Steve s/v Good Intentions |
