Hi There,

Go the settings menu then connections and select Beam, no make sure the box that says receive all coming beams is unchecked, if this is selected the serial port will be blocked.

TomTom 3 would warn you that it couldn't communicate with the receiver but version 5 will just sit there saying there is no gps device connected.

Hope this helps

Richard
