I believe you will need one of these harnesses: PF90363 Harness - GreenStar 2 Third Party Controller Kit
includes RS232 harness to connect 2100 or 2600 GreenStar 2 Displays to third party controllers and GPS receivers. PF90350; this harness will allow you to utilize the advanced feature of GPS Speed from the StarFire iTC as well as RS232 NMEA* output. *NMEA output from the StarFire iTC is available only with valid SF2 License or RTK Activation, or if used in conjunction with a GreenStar system (Green Star Display and Mobile Processor) any signal level can be used.

Configure the NMEA string and AFS Pro 600 as follows. You must be on v16 of the AFS Pro 600 software to utilize the serial port on the display.

To use the serial connector for GPS input, follow the steps below.
1. Configure the receiver to output data in the following format:
• Data type: NMEA
• Data bits: 8
• Parity: None (N)
• Stop bits: 1
• Baud rate: 4800bps - 38400bps
• Hertz rate: 1hz or 5hz
• NMEA Strings: GGA and VTG turned ON, all others turned OFF
2. Connect the GPS receiver to the display serial connector using a 9-pin data cable supplied by the receiver vendor or manufacturer. (The receiver must be powered separately, as the 9-pin serial connection cannot supply power to the receiver.)
3. Power up the display and go to MAIN > TOOLBOX > GPS.
4. Set the GPS Connection Type to 'RS232B'.
