| Raymarine RL80C with NMEA GPS receiver
Hello gents, We all know a raymarine GPS receiver , seatalk connectable, is an expencive neccesary gadget right. Therefor I was wondering if it's possible to use a normal usb GPS receiver , cut the usb thing off en use a few of the 6 internal wires , -one like this- http://www.uploadarchief.net/files/d...c00408-800.jpg and connect it to a RL80C plus radar/chartplotter unit by using of the NMEA input. -This is the raymarine connection cable and 5 NMEA leads (the thick red and black are power supply for the unit) - http://www.uploadarchief.net/files/d...c00411-800.jpg 400$ question is , what usb receiver lwires goes to what raymarine NMEA wires ? Raymarine colours : (infolabel on the cable) orange= plus channel 1 yellow= minus channel 1 green= plus channel 2 blue = minus channel 2 bare wire = ground USB receiver colours red = ? black = ? yellow = not connected in the USB port green = ? blue = not connected in the USB port white = ? Tricky question is it not. Thanks and regards. |
