Hi,

Did anybody try to use GPSGate together with GarminQue?

I have a problem with GPSGate 2.5.0.210.
I installed it on HTC X7500 with WM6, the installation was perfect, I created input/output ports. On input I see "GPS data is coming in", then I created out "Virtual COM1/Garmin Emulator" and for the first time it shows "Running OK", but when I start Garmin Que and configure this port as GPS port, Que just says "GPS is Off". I tried to push button "Connect to GPS" but it doesn't help.
At the same time GPSGate shows "No clients connected" in output page.
I tried to create COM2 at the same time, tried to change COM1->COM9 but it doesn't help too.

If somebody has any ideas, please let me know.

Oleg.

Could be the QuickGPS messing around?

Try to unconfigure QuickGPS, is in the Start / Settings / System.

Once you unconfigure that, the hardware port for GPS on Athena/X7500 is COM5 at 4800, so you need to configure that in GPSGate as input (?) and then the virtual port you want to use as output... COM1 or COM2 are good choices. Maybe COM0 but some programs got troubles with that.

Other choice could be try to not to stop the QuickGPS and use COM4 as input and again COM1 or COM2 as output. Not sure if this will work. Other programs llike GPSBlue or GPSProxy allows to do that so you keep the quick finding of sats.

Thatīs the solution, majhong! How are you?

With search engine i found you and i tried to unconfigure quickGps (SIFenabler in A701). Now, Garmin Que, C-eMap and PTGMap run ok without problems of gps comunication. I`ve changed position of SIFenabler, from Start Up to Start Menu. Now quickgps donīt run i start of windows.

Best regards and thanks
