 Posted: Sun Nov 20, 2011 10:36 am Post subject: pinout for garmin 9-pin cable to DSUB |
 |
|
I have a cable which connects a 9-pin DIN Garmin GPS (296 in my case) to anything else...the cable has bare wire ends. I've crimped male pins on for a 9-pin DSUB connector, but I don't want to insert the pins willy-nilly into the DSUB connector. I've tried googling for a pinout diagram but can't find one. Can someone advise where to look, or perhaps they already have, the pinout diagram for this? That is, which leads of the Garmin cable go to which holes in the 9-pin DSUB.
BTW, Garmin labels their leads as follows:
Red: DC Input
Blue: Port 1 Out
White: Alarm
Orange: Voice (-)
Violet: Port 2 Out
Black: Ground
Yellow: Port 1 In
Brown: Voice (+)
Green: Port 2 In

2 - PC Rx (device Tx, Blue)
3 - PC Tx (device Rx, Yellow)
5 - Ground (Black)
As a side note, I think the 296 GPS may be the only one that supports the dual serial ports. Other newer ones only support Port 1.

The question would then be – what is it you are hooking up to the Garmin 296 via the 9-pin connector?
The only things of use are:
Power to the 296:
Red: +12v
Black: Ground
Feed to autopilot:
Blue: serial data out (NMEA)
Voice alert (Terrain/Obstacle):
Brown: feed to audio panel
If this is your interface to your aircraft systems...no standard DB-9 pinout is required. Put those leads in any hole you want.
If you want to be direct plug compatible with “device X”, then you should use “device X” pinouts.

Ah, wait, you said you crimped on MALE pins?
The port that comes from you computer is a male port, and the port that comes from your GPS would be a male port as well, if I follow you. Typically a female-female serial cable is a crossover-type cable with pins 2 and 3 "crossed-over". You'd need to verify that with a meter, but that would swap your pins 2 and 3 in the GPS connector.
In general, for DB9 serial:
DTE has a male connector (computers, old green-screen dumb terminals)
DCE has a female connector (modems)
This is not always followed though, so it's best to check cables with a meter and consult the manual for nonstandard pinouts.
