Can anyone help me. I have just set my 168 up with TomTom3, I can not get a satalite fix? Is there a setting I need to make? |

Select COM2, Standard NMEA either 4800 or 9600 (depending on the model you have) _________________ Lutz

Thanks for the quick responce. I have the 168RS, I have set it as NMEA 0183v2 9600 but I do not have a COM2 option. All my listing shows is: USB Cable
Serial Cable on SP2
Serial Cable on COM1
COM3
Native IR
Bluetooth GPS |

Serial Cable on SP2 should be the correct one. _________________ Lutz

Try the settings.
NMEA 0183v2 4800 in the top box with serial cable on SP2 in the lower box and it should work.

Setting TomTom Wireless GPS amd Serial Cable on SP2 in the GPS settings seems to work.

or look through these reviews as I noticed a few things about other people having a few isses setting it up.

On my Mio with MioMap I use Com Port: COM2. Baud Rate: 4800. and Protocol: NMEA.
Hope this helps. |
