|
|
hi,
some stupid s.o.b decided to smash my car window the other day and take my car audio. while at it they also managed to take my gps receiver from the glovebox.
i am in an urgent need of a quick replacement as i have to wait for my insurance to sort things out. i had to make do with a map all week but have some trips coming up that i do not want to use a map for but gps.
i was going to buy a temporary fix until the insurance went through but today i managed to get hold of a BT-77 Bluetooth GPS Receiver with Nemerix Chip from a work mate.
i have been trying for an hour but can't get the damn thing to work with ttm5 and my phone. i have a nokia 6600. for some reason i can get the two things to pair up from bluetooth search but nothing else. when tt is fired up it keeps saying no GPS device
can someone please help?
i want to make the bt-77 work with a nokia 6600 and ttm5.
thanks, |

Pair up the devices in the Nokia Bluetooth menu and then set the GPS device as Authorised. Then start up TTM5, go to the GPS page, select "Other Bluetooth GPS" and then pair up. That should do it. |
