Re: Garmin protocol question

Hi !

I am writing an implementaion of the Garmin-protocol.

One issue here, is that different units uses different
types (structures) of waypoints (eTrex uses D108_Wpt_Type,
GPSmap uses D109_Wpt_Type etc), trackpoints etc. I intend to support a few models only, so I dont have to implement every structure in the spec. Is there, or does anybody here have, an overview of which models using which protocols ?

Thanks in advance !

Most new models use D109. The Garmin Interface Protocol documentation does mention some of the models for each data type put I am not aware of a complete list. There is also a table in back of the list for models that do not support a Protocol array. Problem is you would have to know the model ids for the table to be truly useful.

I do have an OCX and C++ library that is well tested. Please check out www.stempsoft.com.
