Description
This auction is for one Haicom HI-204E-USB GPS receiver with printed owner's manual, suction cup mount (some suction cups are warped in the packaging), and driver CD. The chipset is a PL2303-XA or PL2303-HXA and drivers are available from www.haicom.tw/support.aspx. However, the current "Windows all USB" driver indicates there is no support for Windows 8, only for Windows 7 and earlier. I have not tried these GPS antennas under Windows 8 and do not know if they work, or if there is an alternate driver available. I have read that they may work under Linux and Mac OS 8.x-10.x but have not tested them there either. All units are plugged into a Windows 7 PC and run with Haicom's Viewer program to ensure that they can see the satellites and communicate properly.Here are the official specs:
