14 GPS NMEA-FORMATTED SERIAL DATA
CONNECTION
In order to obtain the GPS NMEA-formatted serial data from the radio, the Full-Data I/O Option Cable
1000022242-0001 is needed. However, the user may create a custom cable assembly that adapts to the
three GPS signals noted in Table 13-1.
Follow this procedure to complete the GPS NMEA-formatted serial data connections using the Full-Data
I/O Option Cable:
1.
Connect Full-Data I/O Option Cable’s 44-pin male connector to the radio’s 44-pin female connector.
Tighten the two jackscrews with a small flathead screwdriver. Do not over-tighten.
2.
Connect the cable’s DB-9 female connector labeled “GPS” to the computer’s serial port DB-9 male
connector — either directly or with an optional MAMROS0055 serial cable — and tighten the screws
until firm. Route the cabling as required.
3.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions on processing the NMEA-formatted GPS data from the radio.
