It wasn't a brilliant decision by the IGC to reverse the pin numbering on RJ connectors.

I'm sure you aren't the only person that has been confused.

As ever connecting devices together by serial or USB (actually it is still a serial connection) requires the correct wires going to the correct pins.

Can't help the wind in XCSoar. What does the wind on the B800 say?

Hi Mike

No complaint, just a statement of a fact. My point was that it was not at all straight forward, for me anyway, the documentation for Androport is / was wrong in the way it identifies the match between ports and cable pairs. So at present I have a feed from B800 to the Nexus 7 running the latest version of XCSoar.

Anyway all documented here <http://forum.xcsoar.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1433>http://forum.xcsoar.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1433 with diagrams and screenshots as I was sorting it out. I notice that Vladimir now responded and said that he corrected the manuals on his website.

However, the biggest problem for me was that I got some very weird wind reading displayed on the XSsoar. At that point I have reverted to the internal GPS engine to sort it out later, but I did not get back to it yet.


Cheers

Paul

Paul,

That is a vague complaint. What exactly didn't happen? Do you have a manual you can send me? Did you try it with another Android device?

I have one of the early examples of the Androport and my experience was less than satisfactory. I would not mind talking to someone with a successful integration of the serial streams.

My equipment: B800, Flarm (19200 baud), Androport, Nexus 7



Cheers

I have been told it all works with a B500 and Flarm so should be no problem with any of our data output varios.
Saves messing around with building IOIO boards etc. In nice shielded box.
