Hi,

I'm wondring if it's possible to connect a standard RS-232 device to our OMNIA to use on it a special GPS location software (VisualGPSce: http://www.visualgps.net/VisualGPSce/default.htm ) as it was used by Vern Knowles on their High Power Rocketry project: http://www.vernk.com/Construction/AngelfireGpsPayload.htm (Take a look at the end of the page).

We need to use it to receive GPS NMEA data from RF Telemetry system on board of our rocket.

Here is a short video (in spanish) showing how it work:

We was pointed to try a RS-232 to Bluetooth adapter to simulate this port like those:

But we preffer to use a cable and a null-modem driver or something like this.

Any advice or suggestion to give?

Thank's in advance!
