I do not understand the problem: it is simply read a sentence ($LK8EX1) from serial port It is obviously necessary to know the format of data
$LK8EX1,99520,151,0,24,5.12,*3F $LK8EX1,99519,151,1,24,5.10,*36 $LK8EX1,99519,151,1,24,5.10,*36 mistake?

It is advertised as "GT Barometric Altimeter with integrated Variometer, LK8000 compatible" (in large red letters on the website). >From the official manual: "GT Digital Altimeter was developed as an accessory for the PNA, which use the navigation program LK8000" The manual does not mention any other software, does not even mention that any other software is even possible or supported. How can the vendor be any more explicit that he designed this product only for LK8000? > > As such, I do not recommend buying it if you want to run > > XCSoar, as the vendor will unlikely help you if you have problems. > > I doubt that since the vendor explicitly asked us to integrate his > device into XCSoar too. But will the vendor support customers running XCSoar? That's why I suggested to ask the vendor before buying.
