Hi

I'm running CoPilot Live 5 Bluetooth on an iPAQ 2210.

This cradle (which has speakers and its own GPS) comes with an install CD but I'm not sure what I should/need to install.

It is asking me to install:
* Winfast Navigator
* Winfast Navigator CE
* GPS USB Driver (which I presume I need if I want to use the cradle's GPS and not my own bluetooth one)

Can anyone offer some guidance?

Thanks
Jackie

Jackie,

I have been running CP5 with a BT receiver on a Dell Axim and have just purchased a CR-100. All that was necessary for installation was to plug the PDA into the cradle, start CoPilot and select the COM1 receiver port (at 4800 baud rate) under the GPS Options/Setup GPS menu. The CR100 is giving excellent reception, good sound and a secure installation - just the job :D As a bonus there is no need to run the BT so two less flashing lights.

Thanks for the tip. I would have just loaded everything on the CD

Just out of curiosity, do you leave your cradle in the car or do you take it out when you're not using it? It just seems a bit tempting to thieves, given how much it costs etc!

Jackie,

Unless it is a secure/trusted parking area the mount is removed from view - as you say, it looks tempting. I find it is best to remove the mount from the windscreen completely, also I think removing the cradle from the arm mounting plate will result in some wear and slop eventually.
