Magellan GPS 315/GPS 320

Connecting to DGPS

To use the PC interface cable to interface the GPS receiver with the DBR-2 or
DBR-3, you must use a null modem (Radio Shack P/N: 26-264A) and a gender
changer (Radio Shack P/N: 26-280A) to connect the GPS receiver properly. This
is due to the pinout being the opposite of the DB9 connector configuration for a
PC connection.

For the DBR (differential beacon receiver) that has a DB9 connector on the
housing, the pinout is:

9

5

1

6

Pin 2: Data out to GPS

Pin 3: Data in

Pin 5: Sig. GND
