The Prime Meridian, also known as the International Meridian or Greenwich Meridian, is the meridian (line of longitude) passing through the Royal ...

I want to have it secured on my kayak deck and still be able to read the display and push the buttons.

Here you go, I don't know if this is the right harness, being as a Kayak is kind of an odd attachment, but try this:

If not you might have to retrofit one that is made for a bike.

Goodluck!

Replaced HD with new Seagate 200GB HD.
I reloaded windows with SvcPak-2. The GPS worked before on old 20GB HD, but now doesn't work.
I don't remember an install disc with it.
I just connected it and it worked fine.
The GPS connection to computer only connects to the serial port ( smaller one next to the big printer port.)
I know it's 4800 baud on the GPS and I changed the port ... but now the mouse jumps all over till I disconnect the GPS.
I used to use the Free web program called "Easy GPS" to dnload waypoints etc. but now I have problems...
Thanks for any help.

Since your GPS and freaks out your mouse when it's plugged in there could be a problem with your mouse sharing the same IRQ as the GPS. You could try a USB mouse if you have one available.

If it is an IRQ conflict, it would take a lot of details to type down to fix. You might be best at that point talking to Dell's customer service for some help.

I can obtain you one, seeing as how I have two of them. I'll check my documents to see if I happen to have a PDF file as well

As it happens, Magellan does have the manual on their website at
