Delorme Tripmate Connections/Code?

edited 2003-06-30 23:29 in General Discussion
I have in my possession a Delorme Tripmate GPS, with the serial 9
pin connector. Does anyone know the pinout for the device. I would
like to connect this GPS to a BS2P and read the $GPRMC code from it,
similar to Jon Williams setup in a earlier Nuts and Volts article.
I going to try to hack the code Jon wrote for his GPS and get it to
work with the Delorme, I searched thru the past posts on this
Delorme monster but have yet to find some simple code to read in the
$GPRMC string... can anyone help?? Thanks in advance... Rob
