[CA11] AIS700: Read NMEA data on Computer

[lumike]

Hi All

I tried to connect the NMEA HI OUT of my AIS700 to my computer using a RS232 to USB converter. It works so far that I do get some characters on my PC (I'm using Linux), but unfortunately it's all garbled, mostly unprintable characters (see attatchment). I tried changing the baud rate and any other option, but the text remains garbled. The only difference I get is faster garbled text with higher baud rates :( I even tried another RS323 to USB adapter, no luck.

Unfortunately I don't have any other device with an NMEA-out to try, I only have a USB-GPS-dongle (which works fine).

Has anyone had any luck doing this?

Thanks
Mike
