Describes the pinouts and functions for both BU-353N and BR-355N GPS receivers.
The GlobalSat GPS Mouse User's Manual describes two GPS receiver models: the BU-353N(10Hz) (USB) and the BR-355N(10Hz) (RS-232), both operating at a 10Hz update rate. These devices are designed to provide real-time street navigation capabilities when connected to a laptop with compatible mapping software.
These GPS receivers enable a laptop to perform real-time street navigation by acquiring GPS satellite signals and outputting NMEA compatible data. The BU-353N(10Hz) connects via a USB port, while the BR-355N(10Hz) uses an RS-232 serial port. Both models are designed for easy integration with third-party mapping and navigation software that supports NMEA data. They provide position, velocity, altitude, status, and control information derived from GPS and SBAS (Satellite-Based Augmentation System) signals. The 10Hz update rate indicates that the device provides position updates ten times per second, which is beneficial for applications requiring more frequent and smoother tracking, such as fast-moving vehicles.
