Pocket Streets and GPS connection error

Gil-ad

I'm working with the Microsoft MapPoint 2002 and a Garmin eMap GPS

connected to my Notebook and I can track my self with no problems.

Lately I tried to connect my iPAQ 3850 (PPC2002) to my GPS using a

serial cable and tried locate my self on the Pocket Streets 2002

(Release 1 (09.05) (08.0902)).

I already download the GPS add-on form the Microsoft web site, but the

Pocket Streets fail to connect to the GPS. I'm keep getting all the

time the message: "The communications (COM) ports is available, but no

signal is being received…"

This message is weird as I did successfully connected to the GPS using

several other PPC GPS aware software as GPS IDEAS™ PRO 1.2 and hand

map.

Any idea how I can make my Pocket Streets work with my GPS?

TIA

I had a similar problem.

I had a Garmin 12 GPS with a serial cable ended with

a DB9 Female connector. The end of my Ipaq Cable was also

a DB9 Cable. So I figure that a just need a gender changer between the two...wrong. I had to put a Null Modem Cable/Connector since pin 2 and 3 must be crossed.

Once I did that work correctly.

My Setting:

PocketPC Com1 4800 baud

My GPS

Nmea/Nmea 4800 0183 2.0

Hope it helped
