0000 (four zeros) is the usuall code to get Bluetooth devices to pair - Mike

Ok, that works fine and i have the two units connecting using a Pocket A to Z application on the PDA.

But When trying to interface with memory map i cannot get the pocket pc to interface with the gps.

In GPS set up i have set;
manufacturer - NMEA
model - NMEA 0183 (this is a default with NMEA)
port - COM5: Bluetooth Serial Port
baud-4800

but the gps will not work, any idea.

cheers

Is your Fortuna Clip on one of These ? - if so try setting the Baud rate to 38400 in the Memory Map application, as this is what the device uses - Mike

Tried that previously as i noted from the Fortuna Clip On review which you attached a link for that the baud rate is 38400.

still not working

Hi All,

I've recently installed Memory Map on my iPaq4700, but am having the same problem as above. I've tried every combination of manufacturers & Baud rates possible but still no joy (Fortuna BT Clip on). The GPS instructions say: SiRF Chipset at 38400 Baud rate, & the bluetooth mgr says the comports are 5-incoming & 8-outgoing.

Does anybody have a solution? It's driving me insane!

I've read that there may be a conflict with Tom Tom software, so I uninstalled that, but it still won't work in Memory Map!

Please Help!!! Crying or Very sad
