RX1710 cannot connect to GPS

I have an RX1710 which came as a navigation bundle with ViaMichelin and a Kirro GPS jacket together this works fine in the car. However I do not want to use it on the road but on the water so I have obtained memory map and nautical charts all of which I have installed on my ipaq. I cannot get this software and others to communicate with the GPS jacket. Do I require specific drivers to get other GPS software to work or is this simply a config issue and does anyone know what the specific settings for this kit is?

regards

I'm sure that I have read elsewhere that the Kirrio mount is designed to work only with VM.

I am not sure that is the case as some companies package this setup with Tomtom

In that case I will have to put this up for sale on eBay. Luckly I won this kit and did not buy it.

Thanks for you assistance
