Default TomTom Mobile 5 & Imate SP5

Just recently purchased an Imate SP5 and TT5 Mobile. Both work really well with the Tomtom GPS unit.
I also have a Syson Sirf III unit, and I cannot manage to make it work with TT5. I've tried selecting "other Bluetooth GPS" in Tomtom settings with no luck at all.

Can anybody please help me???

Why don't you want to use the Tomtom GPS?

Default Don't use Other Bluetooth...

I assume that you know what COM port your GPS is accessible on, and what the speed is (presumably 38400). Use the Serial NMEA selection and then set the appropriate baud rate and choose the port. That usually works more reliably.

Hope this helps!

It's not that I don't want to use tomtom's GPS. I have two cars and I want to have a GPS installed in each car to the cigarrete lighter, so that I don't have to take the GPS unit with me every time (most of the time I forget).

As to NMEA selection, the Tomtom5 version for smartphone only lets you choose Tomtom GPS receive or Other GPS receiver. Period. No "other NMEA GPS" and then select the baud rate like in the PocketPC version.

I think that you can only use one GPS in your mobil phone, cause the first one you have paired is using the incoming com port, and the second one canīt reach that port becouse it is asociated with the first one.

I canīt use 2 identical GPS units in my C500. Only the first one that i have paired works.

..but maybe there is a solution for this.
