Thus Silver version do not have NMEA output, so my idea is to extract data from 8 pin cable that comes from sonar head.
Thus I'm totally not electronic guy, that is the reason of maybe my stupid question Big Grin
So idea is just to extract several wires from that jack and wit some adapter sent them to the let's say USB.

Yea.. That's not going to work. There is no, simple, way to get a transducer to output a depth sentence. That requires a whole depth sounder!! Smile
