ProMark 2 download cradle
Posted By Paul Moss on 4/16/2010 at 2:38 PM

Hi all,

I've missed place my download cradle and wonder if anyone knows how the four connections on the back of the recievers are wired up to the 9 pin connector. I figure if I know which connectors go to which pins, I can make my own down load cable. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Page 74 of the Map330/PM2 manual will give you the pin-out information. You can download it here:

Thanks I looked at pg 74 of the 330 manual and it indicated that Pin2 = data out, pin3 = data in, and pin5 = ground, but the diagram does not tell you which of the four conectors on the back of the reciever goes to each pin. This is the additional information that I need to make a cable. If you can help thanks.

Without the cradle, it is the same connector as used on the Magellan Map 300 series and the MobileMapper Pro receivers.

We have them in stock PN 730366, $29.75

I have a brand new one in an unopened box in my hand.

The Map 330 connectors are the same and I have used them to download PM 2s.

If you have the dashboard cradle with the cigarette lighter power adaptor you are good to go. If you have the 4 connector backplate (no cradle) that was attached to the Map 330 by a screw, rubber band it in place. Do not, I repeat, do not run a screw into your antenna connector.

If you are in no hurry they are available from time to time on ebay.
