Michael,
First things first.... You have GPSU - That is as good a start as you can have (IMHO). When you tap connect, What does GPSU tell you at the bottom of the screen? If it does not say SH.... something it might say NMEA.... If it doesn't say something, you may not have a working connection. Can you get the SH160 to report position to GPSU? The SH unite frequently have multiple NMEA port sets. Each has to be configured in the setup-advanced menu for what you want it to do. Some SH units can even open a proprietary port type, but GPSU can even work that. If you can't find something that makes sense there, Call SH. If they can't/won't help try the GPSU forum on Yahoo. If you can't get it to talk to GPSU, you are done. GPSU is all I use for this service. Let us know what happens. If you are still having Matt Colie Yachtman's Technical Support www.yachtek.com CaptMichael wrote: I have a Standard Horizon GPS Chart 160 which is similar to the CP175C or just 175. I am trying to get my numbers off of it and put them on my new and beloved Garmin 498. I can not for the life of me find out how to get them onto my computer fron the 160. I have tried MapSource and GPSU and neither seem to be aboe to communicate with the Standard Horizon. I have checked the path, etc with my old Garmin GPS 12 and it's points fly right into MapSource. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to set up my Standard Horizon to talk to my PC? I would even load them directly to the Garmin 498 if I can do so. Thank You for your HELP! Sorry for accidentaly posting this in the wrong area the first time. I would not figure out how to move it so posted it here... -- target of diversity victim of affirmative action refugee from the war on poverty minimized by political correctness |
