Has anyone have any successful experiance with iGO8 using TMC on a PDA?

In short- I have a GNS trafficbox TMC reciever. I have iGO8 R3 and I ahve a P3600 (trinity) phone. The phone has WM6.1 operating system..

Trying to config it to be able to identify the hardware (it is physically connected to the mini USB on the phone there are 3 variables. TMC protocol (I assume GNS) , COM port, and baud rate.

I have tried any combination possible (including all auto) and get one result- 'NO TMC hardware found'

Does anyone knows how it can be configured? Another 'rumor' I read on the forum is iGO8 8.3.x does not have a working TMC at all, and that 8.0.x recognize the hardware but nothing further.

I know it is more an 'iGO' question than XDA, but it is related, and this forum is the only forum I know with responsive people and knowledge.

Thanks in advance

I've emailed NavNGO Israel about this as i wanted to use a special positioning system for a friend who's in the military.. unfortunatly, I would have to tell you that unless someone found an unformal solution which I don't know about, you will have to give it up.

you can use a TMC with bluetooth tho... http://www.gns-gmbh.com/index.php?id=72&L=1
