Lowrance GPS
 
Hi all

I have just purchased a replacement boat which has a Lowrance Global Nav 2
GPS, I am picking the boat up in the next week or so but I am trying to find
some information about this unit.

Does anyone know anything about this model?

I have tried to find a user manual on the Lowrance's site but it is not
listed, any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Dave

Hey, We have one on our boat (brothers) & learnt it by trial & error too!!
Not much info out there about it I could find.
The main thing I was trying to work out was if it is possible to connect to
a computer? I tried everything I could think of but couldn't get any upload
or download happening.
If you know something about it, I'd love some info?
Drop one of the "@" to reply.

You will need special software because Lowrance is not fully NMEA
compatible.
You can download a free program here
http://www.lowrance.com/Software/GDM6/Default.asp
Hope this helps.

Looks like it doesn't cover any of the "global nav" series though.
