-
Tap
Configure Port
to configure the selected port. Enter its
baud rate, number of start and stop bits and set its parity
and flow control parameters.
-
Tap
OK
. MobileMapper CX will now deliver the NMEA mes-
sage you have defined on its USB port.
Outputting NMEA Data on Virtual Port COM2
From the moment a non-empty NMEA message is defined (see
page 64
, MobileMapper CX will output this message on its vir-
tual port (COM2), independently of whether the message is
enabled on the auxiliary output port or not.
The COM2 settings can be displayed by tapping
Port Status
.
These settings cannot be changed:
•
Baud rate: 57600 Bd
•
Data bits: 8 data
•
Parity: None
•
Stop bit: 1
•
Flow control: None.
