"The secondary serial port is available on pins 7 and 8. A “Y-adatper cable” can be built to separate the primary and secondary serial ports to separate connectors. When a splitter cable is used, it is recommended to connect the computer to the primary port (pins 2 & 3) and the GPs to the secondary port (pins 7 & 8)."

I tried it that way too if I reverse the connections (i.e.) GPS plugged into PC port and so on no GPS LED blinking on the TT4 and still no connection.

There's mention in the configuration manual about whether you are using
a null modem cable and/or a splitter. It's on page 4 of the Quick Start
Guide.
