I have installed Memory Map pocket PC version, which looks great, and paired with my Tom Tom BT gps unit, but can't get the Memory Map software to see the GPS.

I don't (never have) had TomTom installed as I know it takes over control of the GPS driver.

Anyone here using this and knows the settings to allow Memory Map to work with the GPS?

Thanks.

when you add the gps in settings-connections-bluetooth, pick a com port - i used com8.

in Pocket Nav select menu-gps-setup

i used manufacturer: NMEA as i have a generic bt gps unit
Port: COM8 (to match the bt com port setting you chose earlier)
Baud: 4800

click ok and it should work ok

i have a free download to evaluate which won't let me plot but it does lock in to the gps and you can view the satellites it's locked on to.

it looks a good package - maybe santa will get me a copy :)
