Using a GPS Unit

Optional Garmin GPS units that conform to version 2.01 or 3.01 of
the National Marine Electronics Association NMEA0183 data
format can be connected to the camera’s ten-pin remote terminal
using an MC-35 GPS adapter cord (available separately; pg. 389),
allowing information on the camera’s current position to be
recorded when photographs are taken. Operation has been
confirmed with Garmin eTrex and Garmin geko series devices
equipped with a PC interface cable connector. These devices
connect to the MC-35 using a cable with a D-sub 9-pin connector
provided by the manufacturer of the GPS device. See the MC-35
instruction manual for details. Before turning the camera on, set
the GPS device to NMEA mode (4800 baud).
