That's exactly what I need. It never even occured to me that a thing like this exists. I saw one on the site mentioned above that provides one RS232 serial interface. So I presume this also makes the OS and the chartplotting program "think" the computer now has a COM-port, which is needed for the setup of the connection with the GPS? Thanks again. Jsp They come with driver software and have to be installed, only takes a few minutes. Make sure the one you buy is compatible with your operating system (WinXP, ME, 98 etc.) Ebay usually has loads of them. The converter is USB to serial, NOT serial to USB as mentioned above! Depends upon your point of view. -- Digital Photo-charts fo all UK areas. Remove 'nospam' to reply. |
