Installing the GPS Receiver
The supplied USB GPS receiver allows to log the geographic
coordinates of the recorded .wav files from the Avisoft-RECORDER
software.
It is required to install a device driver for the GPS receiver. This can
be done from the supplied NAVILOCK installationCD, from the GPS
subfolder on the Avisoft Bioacoustics CD or from the manufacturer
website www.navilock.com.
Once the GPS receiver is connected to the PC, a new USB device
will be detected and its “USB-Serial Controller” driver should be
finally activated.
The sucessfully installed driver is listed on the
Ports
section of the
Windows Device Manager as a “Profilic-to-serial Comm Port”:
Windows automatically assigns the GPS receiver to a virtual COM
port (COM6 in the above example).
