Unable to open GPS port com 4; port

[Skidog]

I have an Ipaq 3650 most current rom 1.88, navman 3450 sp2 installed and a 256 cf card. I finally got the Navman to recognize the sleeve but cannot get it to use a com port. Here is the error:

Unable to open GPS Port COM4; port has already been opened by anotehr application.

I don't have any additional software installed, I have the following Navman related software installed:

Navman driver (3.1.6)
Navman GPS Info 1.3 (3.1.6)
Navman SmartST Professional sp2

I tried to delete both of the drivers one at a time but need them both.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike

Please soft reset and run only one GPS application at one time. ie, you cannot run GPS Info and Smart ST at the same time.

Gambitgander,

I did as you suggested and I now have the error

"Failed to get NMEA data Sleeve Comms error Contact Navman support"

You may be selecting the wrong com port. If something else is using COM4, you may be using the GPS Sleeve on COM5 or COM6.

I called navman and they decided I had a bad Navman. They are sending another unit out.
