You may connect the NL-6003P either to the serial interface of your PC using an MD6 to DB9

All values for the serial connection via DB9, such as COM Port, Baud rate etc., result from the
settings of this interface on your PC.
Use the following guide for USB adaptation:
Plug the USB cable into a free USB connector of your notebook, etc. Your Windows operating
system then detects the NL-6003P and attempts to install a driver. When automatic detection
does not work, install the Prolific USB driver from the supplied CD under the Installation -> NL-
6003P menu item.
Please restart your computer after the installation is completed. Afterwards, the GPS COM Port
will be available in the device manager under connections. Set this port in your navigation or
route planner software. Do not simultaneously use any other program accessing this COM Port.

Download u-center from:
http://www.navilock.de/produkte/F_1037_NEO-6P_62457/software.html
Install the u-center software on your unit. Select the version suitable for your system. U-center is
a pure test program and cannot be used for navigation or orientation. It must always be closed
after the test. It blocks the COM port and does not allow any access of the navigation or route
software to the COM port. It also serves for updating the Assist GPS data and switching to
EGNOS or WAAS etc.
