... Just received an e-mail from Icom and the tech says that the Garmin GPS 182 must send the "GGA" sentence. I don't think that my 182 will send that because I don't see it in the manual. That could be my problem . But that is easy to check with hyperterminal or MPXConfig. On the other hand, I haven't seen a GPS yet that doesn't send GGA,GLL and RMC all in one burst. Meindert |

Page 99 of the current Garmin 182 manual on their website says it puts out the
GPGGA sentence. GP means GPS. That's what the radio wants. "Meindert Sprang" wrote in message ... "speckfisher" wrote in message ...

... Whats all that hyperterminal or MPXConfig?????????? Hyperterminal is a terminal program, present on every windows system. You can use that program to show NMEA data that is received on a serial port on your screen. Hyperterminal is a pain to configure, especially if you're not up to speed with serial data communications. So therefore I suggested MPXConfig. This is a program I wrote to configure my NMEA multiplexers and you can also use it to show NMEA data. It does the same as Hyperterminal but it is preconfigured to NMEA (8 databits, 1 stopbit, no parity) and you can set the speed right on the main screen to 4800 baud instead of disconnecting first, dive into a menu and re-connect again as in Hyperterminal. MPXConfig is free and can be downloaded from http://www.shipmodul.com/downloads/mpxconfig2.11.zip Meindert |

: http://www.shipmodul.com/downloads/mpxconfig2.11.zip Even works great through my virtual serial port dll to the serial-to- ethernet box. Thanks, Meindert. |
