COM 4, Baud 19200.

Works great for Google Maps, TOPO! and Pocket Streets.

baud 4800
com 4

what program? I ask because I did some testing on different programs, and while the Hermes BT baud is 9600, the internal Kaiser was faster at 19200. It may run at the lower speed, but why not use it?

OCN6 uses Com 4800 baud... On the Tilt.

My UK Tytn 2 also uses the GPS on com port 4 baud 4800, will not work with any other setting.

All my GPS programs use it, Tomtom Nav 6, Google Maps, GPS Test and GPS Tuner.

Hmmm... ok. Can't argue, but I wonder how I got it to work - and at the time I set it up it made since because being internal it should handle a faster serial baud rate than via the BT.

Anyhow, I'll try it at 4800 and see if it works there as well.

I use a Baud rate of 9600 with TOMTOM 6.032
Perhaps the Baud rate can change depending on your area (i.e which satellites you're pointing at)?

If you are using TT 6.032, then it automatically detects that you have a built-in GPS, so ignores the COM & Baud rate settings

If yes how ?
