iPAQ 3970 and GlobalSat BT-338 - no response???

OK - trying a new BlueTooth device as the solar powered unit didn't seem to want to work. Bought a GlobalSat BT-338 - but TT5 will not see it. Neither will the GPS program that came with it - GPSInfo. However the old TT3 GPS program will This is set to a SirfIII on COM8
In TT5 the connection is set to "Other Cable NMEA GPS" at a BAUD rate of 38400 on Bluetooth Serial Port COM8.

Any ideas anyone - this is the second BT device I've tried and I'm rapidly getting disillusioned with the system.....

Hi Ranger_Neil,

Have you paired the BT-338 to the 3970?

Regards,

no pairing/bonding required.

- set the receiver to NMEA mode (NOT SiRF mode!!!)
- remove the TTN3 GPS driver.

Hmm - how do you change the receivers setting to NMEA?? Nothing mentioned about that in the destruction leaflet.......

Use SiRFDemo on the PC or WinFast Navigator on the Pocket PC to switch protocols.
