Hi Folks,
I have recently bought the Holux CR-100 cradle with in built GPS receiver. All I get from my XDA is 'No GPS Signal' - the light on the receiver is flashing to suggest that it has found satellites.
I have disabled the IRDA - but when I put my XDA in the cradle it tires to connect to a PC using Active Sync. My XDA is from O2 and has their front end installed.
Does anyone have any ideas how to get these items to connect? All suggestions gratefully received!!
Thanks
Richard
Try setting the baud rate at 192000. This worked for me.

I have used a Fortuna GPSmart bluetooth gps with xda2, I bought an optional cable which powers the xda2 and the gps and also allows data connection to xda or xda2, it needs to be set to Tomtom gps, nmea 38400 and Com 1, beams must be switched off in settings/connections/beams. I also have a Holux GR-230 bluetooth gps, I tried the cable from the Fortuna, with the same settings and it also works perfectly as a wired gps while charging both xda/xda2 and gps. This may be of interest to somebody.

Hi. I have also just purchased the cable and being really stupid l Can't get it to work. Where do I change the settings you mentioned? thanks.
Go to the "gps" section of tomtom, choose nmea 38400 and com 1.

Hi
Does anyone have any idea how to connect a blutooth GPS device to an XDA EXEC running tomtom5? I can connect easily using the genuine tomtom bluetooth receiver however no such joy using any other type bluetooth receiver.
I have been able to pair both the PBT-111 and another bluetooth receiver, but I am only allowed to connect to comm ports 4 or 8 in the connection manager. These selections are not available when I go to the 'configure' option for the receiver within tomtom
Any ideas most welcome
Hi Mick did you have any joy with your connection to the xda exec.
bt and tomtom
if you install bt reciever in tt5,go to other wired recievers and choose the right port number. then it should work.
succes
This helped me when I set mine up.

Greetings all!
I have become the owner of an XDA Orbit and have not taken the kind people at O2 up on their offer of navigation software, but am using my existing TTN 5 software. It has installed perfectly and it works excellently on the external BT GPS, but I need to know how to get it to work through the built-in GPS.
Does anyone have any instructions and port settings to get the TTN5 to speak to the on-board GPS receiver?
All help gratefully received.........

Other NMEA GPS/ GPS Baud rate 9600/ GPS on COM4 - Mike
Thanks Mike, it works a treat (even better than my Leadtek BT GPS). I 'm sure it wouldn't have hurt O2 to put that in the manual.
Keep up the good work.
Hi,
I was wondering whether TomTom software for a Nokia would work on an XDA IIs?
And does the XDA IIs have a gps reciever in built?
Kind Regards
Sportyfr
nokia tomtom software wont work on xda IIs, different Operating system and no the xdaIIs does not have gps built in you need a seperate gps receiver
The BA is very capable of running TTN6 if accompanied with an external GPS receiver - Bluetooth is best although cabled versions of the GPS are available, should you decide to use a cabled solution please remember to disbale the "Receive all incomming beams" from the IRdA settings as this releases the comm port for correct communications - Mike
