Fortuna Slim and Ipaq 6340

[redchocky]

Hi
Just wanted to post a short message following a revelation at the weekend!
Have been trying for days without luck to get TomTom 5 and my Ipaq 6340 to work using "other Bluetooth antenna" TT5 just says please pair the antenna!
Now it worked fine with TT3 (other than it would occasionally freeze the Ipaq).
The revelation is that you pick the "other cable NMEA gps" antenna choosing the relevant Com port (7 for me) and the Ipaq goes off and finds it! The only problem is that you are asked to select the bluetooth device everytime you start the program, a bit dull but better than it not working at all!
Now just some road tests to perform and Ill start to trust it!

Interestingly TT5 chooses completely different routes to AutoRoute, the AA and Greenflag route planning software!

cheers

search the forum for "btbrowserenabled".

The receiver needs to be set to NMEA mode in the first place (different from TTN3 the new TTN5 doesn't support SiRF protocols any more)
