Haicom GPS and WinPilot
I just received my HAiCOM HI-303III CF Card GPS and can not get
WinPilot, running on my iPAQ 3950, to recognize it. I installed software on the iPAQ that shows me the gps is working and I can see my position. I've used a Garmin 12xl with cable hookups in the past with no problem. Does anyone have any suggestions to help out? Thanks, Ray |

I'm running the expansion sleeve and the gps is com port 6. Ray |

Most GPS systems use 4,800 baud. If you don't see a "com port" option on any of the menu pages, you'll need to edit a page and select it as a menu item. That should get you going. Charlie |

Hi,
I can confirm that the HI-303III GPS uses 4800 baud. Paul Remde wrote in message ...

Thanks again, Ray- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - If you touch the "Menu" button, you will seean "Edit" button at the bottom of each of the three menu pages. Touch the "edit" button and then touch any of the menu items. I drop down list will appear. Select "Com port" from the list. You'll then need to close the menu for the change to take place. Open the menu again and go to the page that you edited. You should now see "Com port" on the button you selected to edit. Select it and change your com port. After you have made the changes, you can edit the menu and return the button to its previous function, if you desire. Charlie |

Hi Ray
In other words, open up WinPilot simulator and click on "Menu". Than click on the "edit" box on the bottom of the page.Next click on any of the empty boxes on the bottom of the same page. This box will appear; "button function". Scroll down the arrow until you find "comm port". Highlight it, check it as ok, and the previous empty box will appear as "comm port". Make your needed changes. Regards. PeterK "cfinn" wrote in message ...

I finally got the drop down menu to select "com port" and then I was able to select com port 6 and it works! Thanks to everyone for their help and to my friend Richard G. who told me about this forum yesterday. I'll keep looking at the subjects and hopefully will be able to help someone else. Thanks again, Ray |
