AIS receiver to USB mutiplexer



Allo

Can someone tell me if I can do this.

I want to connect AIS receiver SR 161 Version 1.2E
RS232 38400 bauds serial port, Data bit :8,Parity:none,Stop bits:1
(pin3=in, pin5=gnd,pin2=out)

TO: ShipModul Miniplex- 41USB NMEA-0183 multiplexer
My ThinkPad have USB port only

The CP175C Chart plotter can show coordinate of DSC
Do you think the Chart plotter do the same with AIS ?

Best Regards
Gilles Ethier
