12 GPS NMEA-FORMATTED DATA CONNECTION
To obtain GPS NMEA-formatted serial data from the radio, the radio must be equipped with the GPS
receiver option, and Option Cable 14002-0174-08 is required. For radios equipped with a GPS receiver,
follow this procedure to complete the GPS NMEA-formatted serial data connections:
1. Obtain Option Cable 14002-0174-08. Each “leg” of this cable is approximately 65 inches long (166
centimeters).
2. Connect the cable’s 44-pin D-subminiature (DB-44) male connector to the DB-44 female connector
on the rear panel of the radio. Tighten the two jackscrews with a small flathead screwdriver. Do not
over-tighten.
3. Connect the cable’s DB-9 female connector identified as P5 to the computer’s serial port DB-9 male
connector—either directly or extended via cable CA-013671-020 (a 20-foot-long cable); see Section
11.2. Tighten the screws firmly, and then route the cabling as required. If the computer is not
equipped with a DB-9 serial port connector, the use of a suitable adapter is required, such as
USB-to-RS-232 Adapter Cable CN24741-0001.
4. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions on processing the NMEA-formatted GPS data from the radio.
If the Option Cable 14002-0174-08 is not available, a 3-wire serial cable can be field-
fabricated. On the radio end, this cable must interface to the three GPS-related signals of
the radio’s 44-pin I/O Cable connector (pins 7, 31, and 32). See Table 11-1 for additional
information.
Industry software to process GPS information through this interface is not supported by Harris.
13 MOBILE DATA CONNECTION
If the radio installation must support mobile data communications of a computer running Mobile Data
Terminal (MDT) or similar software, follow this procedure to connect the computer to the radio:
1. Obtain Option Cable 14002-0174-08. Each “leg” of this cable is approximately 65 inches long (166
centimeters).
If the MDT requires a Clear-To-Send (CTS) and/or a Ready-To-Send (RTS) handshake
lines, use Option Cable 14002-0174-08 Rev. A or later. Earlier cables did not have the
CTS and RTS interconnections to connector P6 of the cable.
2. Connect the cable’s 44-pin D-subminiature (DB-44) male connector to the DB-44 female connector
on the rear panel of the radio. Tighten the two jackscrews with a small flathead screwdriver. Do not
over-tighten.
3. Route the “leg” of this cable that has the two
DB connectors (i.e., DB-25 connector P4 and DB-9
connector P6) to the area near the serial port of the MDT computer. Protect the cable from possible
chafing and tie-and-stow it as necessary.
If the cable’s “leg” length is not long enough to reach the computer, o
btain cable
CA-013671-020 (or equivalent) and use it to extend the connection from the DB-9
connector P6. Cable CA-013671-020 is a 20-foot-long standard DB-9 serial data cable.
