I alredy try with Gpsgate but result is the same - no go. Garmin XT software scanning the bluetooth devices and detect TomTom mk2 receiver but this is it, then just stuck at searching satelites. Anybody had the same expirience ?

No one with that combination ? Garmin XT + TomTom bluetooth receiver mk2 ? What is the diference between TomTom receiver and other bluetooth receivers ? I tried everything but Garmin XT wont talk to TomTom receiver. Is out there any software wheach translate TomTom BT comunication protocol to Garmin protocol. I look at specification of both receivers and i dont find where is the catch. I hope somebody tell me the trick to force TomTom receiver to talk to Garmin XT software. Gpsgate dont work with this combination. :confused:

hi,

the GPS receiver works with other programs?

My GPS settings you see in the pictures.

WM6 GPS port and GPSGate Virtual port > both on COM4

Yes, bluetooth receiver is working on other software. Your Gpsgate setings are very strange. What is with Device ID ?
