The wiring will be the same, with one exception. The GPS will only accept data input from one device at a time, but can
output data to no more than 3 devices simultaneously. Since the DGPS and PC both need to utilize 2-way
communication with the GPS, it is necessary to wire the GPS to only output data to the PC or install a SPDT (Single
Throw, Double Pole) switch. This will allow you to alternate the input to the GPS between the PC and DGPS data
outputs. This will allow you to still upload data to the GPS from the PC, but will disable the DGPS during data transfer.
Once switched back to data input from the DGPS, the GPS will resume receiving DGPS corrections and only output data
to the PC. See the following wiring diagram for a sample of how to accomplish this:
For Macintosh users:
GARMIN does not support Macintosh computers at this time and does not have Macintosh software or connectors
available. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes you. Information for wiring a GARMIN GPS to a DIN-8
connector is provided as a courtesy to Macintosh users. It is possible to run PC based software on Macintosh by using a
PC emulator program. Macintosh systems normally utilize a female 8 pin DIN-8 port on the back of the computer.
For wiring a DIN8 to a power/data cable, refer to the above instructions, with the following exceptions:
Solder the power/data cable Data Out to the Receive Data (RxD) pin 5 of the DIN8
Solder the power/data cable Data In to the Transmit Data (TxD) pin 3 of the DIN8
Solder the power/data cable Ground to the Signal Ground (SG) pin 4 of the DIN8.
