![]() It’s worth noting that this screen is only 5” – that makes it ideal for smaller setups, but it’s usually not the best choice if you have a number of anglers who want to use the screen at the same time. Rain or shine, day or night, even in fog – no matter what the weather is like, you’ll be able to keep using your HOOK Reveal 5. You get a clear, backlit image that can be used in all kinds of weather conditions. The screen itself is beautiful – we’ve been a fan of Lowrance’s SolarMAX screens for a long time now. Garmin, Magellan, and Lowrance have all released these APIs, which is why ExpertGPS can transfer data to any of these GPS receivers.The display on the HOOK Reveal 5 comes with a few nice surprises. If not, you can always contact Raymarine or your favorite marine GPS manufacturer, and ask them to release a public programming API so that programs like ExpertGPS can send and receive waypoints, routes, tracks, and POIs to and from your device. With any luck, your GPS will recognize this standard NMEA message and import the waypoint data into its memory. So, if you tell ExpertGPS that you have this GPS, and then click Send to GPS, it will send NMEA waypoint messages (those are the ones that start with $GPWPL, such as $GPWPL,4807.038,N,01131.000,E,WPTNME*5C The MLR SP24 XC model in ExpertGPS uses NMEA to transfer waypoints and routes. ExpertGPS doesn’t officially support GPS receivers other than Garmin, Magellan, Lowrance, Eagle, and MLR, but there’s a trick you can use to send waypoints and routes over NMEA to many other brands of GPS receivers, especially ones intended for marine use. ![]() ![]() Many people contact me asking if there is a way to take GPS data from an older GPS receiver and transfer it to a new chartplotter or updated GPS in their boat. How to Transfer GPS Waypoints to a Raymarine Chartplotter Do i need to get special adapter? Can it be done? Ray marine says NMEA +input is white, NMEA input – is Green. I have a Raymarine DS500, I would like to get information from my GPS Eagle intellimap 320, to display on the Raymarine, I see there is a plug in back of the GPS that is not used it has 2 pins in between the power and the transducer hook up. ![]()
