Paul, Have you considered trying a bluetooth gps (if
you have one available?)At 21:06 18 May 2004, Paul Remde wrote:Hi,I forgot to mention that my iPAQ 3970 works fine with

h5455 and neither of us can get it work with Glide Navigator II - or any other
GPS program. I've tried using a GPS test utility called Crux_View that
allows me to testeach serial port one at a time. I'm connected to a GPS-NAV
but can't see theGPS data. I'm writing to ask if any of you (technical bunch
that you are) have had success with an iPAQ h5455 and a GPS connected through
the RS-232 serial data port on the bottom of the unit. Please let me
know if you have. Also, I'm wondering if perhaps the problem is caused
by a setting that is set incorrectly. I'm usually very good at getting Pocket PCs to work.
I've played with dozens of them over the last few years. But I'm hoping
that someone inthis group will have run into this issue before and have
a suggestion. Glide Navigator can't find GPS data so it eventually
quits trying to find the GPS and runs in simulator mode. That makes sense
since the Crux_View utility can't see GPS data on comm ports 1 to 9. I've tried doing a soft reset. The BlueTooth Radio is turned off. Wireless Ethernet
is turned off. Any suggestions? Thanks, Paul Remde Cumulus Soaring Supplies http://www.cumulus-soaring.com
