Connecting cable GPS to laptop

#1 (**permalink**) 16-08-2008, 06:11 PM

Hi all.
I have a spare cabled Tomtom GPS which has a 'modem' type plug, 4 wires.

This forum has given me the pinouts, Gnd Rx Tx Vcc.

To connect it to my laptop, I need to make an adapter (OK lash-up!) to go into serial (seems to have no VCC) PS2 (seems to have no Rx), or USB?

Anyone done this, or has some ideas please

Cheers Nick

Why not simply buy an RJ11 adaptor?
