As far as I am aware, you can't connect any satnav systems to autoroute, what you need to connect is just the gps receiver. _________________ Tomtom Go730T

I've got an old Garmin GPS 12 XL that talks quite happily to Autoroute (2006), so Autoroute can obviously deal with more than just a receiver. I don't use it very often, but if I recall I have to go through a specific sequence for it all to work.
It also helps if you can turn off any other applications that may be looking at the communication ports, as I found that other applications polling the ports fooled Autoroute into thinking nothing was connected. |
