Hi Dan,

The advantage to connecting the Oudie to the SN10 is that the SN10 (assuming
it has somewhat current software) can send vario and wind data to the Oudie.
The Oudie's "Thermal Assistant" really only works well with real-time vario
data. And since the SN10 has airspeed sensors and GPS data, it can
calculate accurate wind speed and direction when cruising - not just when
circling as the Oudie can do with GPS data alone. Being able to calculate
the wind while cruising is very important when ridge or wave flying.

If you also connect the Oudie to the VL, then you can have the Oudie send
official task declarations to the VL and you can download secure flight logs
from the VL.

Hi Ted,

The Oudie's power/data cable is supplied with an RJ45 to DB-9m adapter
which
can be configured for connection to our standard Goddard SN10/PDA wiring
harnesses. I would setup the adapter exactly the same as if it was being
connected to a Cambridge 302 or Goddard PS-5a power converter. You can see
the connections for that

I sell standard wiring harnesses for the SN10 for several GPS types - with
PDA connections.http://www.cumulus-soaring.com/goddard.htm

If you want to modify your existing wiring harness, you'll need the SN10
manual - which is available hehttp://www.ilec-gmbh.com/manuals.htm

Later today or tomorrow I'm going to be searching the 'Net for a how-
to on this, but until then if anyone has a link to help with, I'll
check here first.

Advance thanks

what are the advantages to conneting an SN-10b to an Oudie?
I have both but kept my Volkslogger connected to the SN-10b and run
the Oudie by itself, just replaced the iPAQ.
It was very easy to pick up the power for the Oudie from the VL power
source.
Can't wait to use the Oudie in my glider, it works great in my
powerplane.
