Hi,
I got the BU 353 to run with GPSnavX but having problems installing the receiver.
I have installed the prolific driver and the red LED on the unit is flashing but when i open GPSnavX on the settings for the gps won't show the usb port in which the receiver is connected, is showing only my usb modem and bluetooth ports.
Anyone have any idea whats happening?
Thanks

We have a BU-353 setup guide right on this forum in the "Tips and Tricks" section ..

http://www.macsailing.net/fbb/showtopic.php?tid/882/

A NOTE OF WARNING: DO NOT PLACE THE BU-353 ON OR NEAR MAC UNLESS THE MAGNET HAS BEEN REMOVED AS IT WILL ERASE THE DRIVE CONTENTS!
