Hi Guys,
I have a Furuno 6100 and a Magellan 315. I have the cable required got the two units, but am not sure how to link the two. Any ideas from anyone? Thanks Alan |

Furuno & Magellan
My Garmin uses a cable with a DB9 connector to connect to my PC. I added a
DB9 connector to the bare end of the Furuno cable. I connect the two DB9s so the Garmin talks to the Furuno instead of my PC. The only problem I've had is with corrosion of the DB9 I added to the Furuno cable. I will replace it, and fill it up with even more silicone seal before I screw the two halves together, and use even more dielectric grease on the connecor pins. "Grumpy" wrote in message ...

No problem with that but the Furuno has TD-A, TD-B, RX-A, RX-B, do I just
use 1 set ie. A or B? "William G. Andersen" wrote in message news:jF%7c.1413$Rh.1173@fed1read05... My Garmin uses a cable with a DB9 connector to connect to my PC.
