I have an HP IPaq 2700 and have just installed TT Navigator 5.
I have a ZyCast SG 278 GPS reciever,which i have paired with the Ipaq,and selected "other gps device"but i cannot get a connection.
Does TT5 Nav work with an HP 2700? Is there an update i need?The HP has windows 2003 second edition software.
The Ipaq "pairs" fine with my phone.
Any help appreciated.

What COM Port and Baud Rate settings did you choose?

I have been unable to find these settings on the ipaq,I've looked in bluetooth manager and settings,would you know how i could find them and what the settings should be?

I appreciate your help

IIRC when you choose 'Other GPS' within TomTom it should present you with a screen asking for that information?

When i select "other GPS" ,the screen throws up "Please pair your Bluetooth GPS and PDA etc etc" even though it is already paired,when i select "continue" it shows GPS is connected to:(list of connections),i have tried both bluetooth serial ports shown but it still wont connect for some reason.

Just found port settings its showing inbound 5 and out bound 8,is this correct?

Try following these directions for successful pairing of your GPS to your PDA...

It's very easy to miss a step out and then nothing works.

A soft reset afterwards doesn't go amiss either!
