Ordering Information

GPS16X-HVS

GPS Receiver with antenna and 4.6m cable.

The cable terminates in pigtails that connect

directly to the control ports of a CR6, CR800,

CR850, CR1000 or CR3000.

GPS16-HVS Magnetic Mount (010467-001)

Magnetic Mount that allows the sensor to

be attached to a metallic surface.

CM225E Sensor Mount Stand

Can be used to mount the GPS-16X at any

point along a CM200 series mounting arm.

A300

Power and signal converter is needed to

connect the pulse-per-second (PPS) output

of a GPS16X-HVS to a CR800-series, CR1000,

or CR3000 datalogger. It is not needed with a

CR6 datalogger.

#28840 DB9FemaletoTerminalBlockwithHoodandHardwareKit

allows the sensor to be connected to a PC’s RS232 serial

port. The sensor needs to be connected to a PC to change

its default settings and options.

A200

Sensor-to-PC interface allows the sensor to be connected

to a PC’s USB port. The sensor needs to be connected to a

PC to change its default settings and options.

The GPS16X-HVS connects directly to COM port

pairs of a CR6, CR800, CR850, CR1000 (shown),

or CR3000 datalogger

*Changing the default settings or options requires a bare wire to RS-232 D connector (part 010376) and a PC running GPS16 software. Please specify the cable length

required. The software can be downloaded, at no charge, from the Garmin web site (www.garmin.com). It is also possible to make changes manually via the datalogger.
