tomtom 5 and wired receiver CF

I have an HP 2210 with tt5 and Haicom CF HI 302-CF

I have used older versions of tt without problems with the same equipment.

Regarding the satellite receiver, I have a couple of issues/problems:

a) The tt5 recognises the Haicom and it shows as one of the possible receivers under Haicom CF GPSin the tt5. I get satellites but the signal is not strong enough to make the software functioning I have tried in the outside in different locations, where I wouldnt have had any problem with previous tt.
I had the bad at 1200. Can this be the problem?

I get a mesage : signal not valid

b) I have to start the GPS receiver manually everytime, the soft would not recognise it automatically when I start the program (tt5). is there a solution for this? previous tt would recognise the receiver automatically.

thanks

set the receiver to 38400, and then in TTN5 select "Other BT receiver" - see if that helps.

CF is not considered wired - that's only for COM1: (serial) connections.

Well, tough luck then. Have you reported it to TomTom?

I have the same kit

Just set up wired receiver, at 1200, using CF port.

Then you have to WAIT until the receiver has locked on. Play with TomTom for a bit to make sure. Then just exit. Nest time it will detect receiver after a few seconds!

1200 sounds a bit low. Try at least 4800
