[gps-boj]

I have had a chance to try TT5 on my Aldi bought Medion 41800 and suppied Royaltek reciever

set it up as
Other Cable NME GPS
GPS baud Rate 4800
S2410 COM1

It shows "no GPS device" at the top of the screen, but the yellow and blue circle on the right is rotatiing as if it recieveing somehthing ( which it doesnot at any of the oth settings)

How can I get this to work?

want make sure before I purchase.

Took advise from another thread and downloaded used Leadtek's 'GPS Monitor' application (available on leadteks site from the 'Downloads' section, ), to change the messages sent by the Royaltek GPS.

If you get the application 'talking' to the GPS and then go 'Tools - Command - NMEA', you'll be able to change what messages are sent , and how often.

I found the following to work OK:-

GGA 1 VTG 1
GLL 2 MSS 2
GSA 5
GSV 5
RMC 1

with all the User entries as 0.

Hit OK, completely exit and kill GPS Monitor, start you normal GPS application and see if you get the display you expect.

Now Working with TT5 OK - time to rob the piggy bank - where the cheapest place to get TT5??

It's not 'netiquette' to post the same thing in 2 different forums (cross-posting) as the replies and counter-replies can get confusing.

Hopefully, a moderator will be along soon to delete this one, leaving the one in the 'Medion / Mitac & Clones' forum.
