Tom Tom 5 on PDA

#1 (**permalink**) 19-06-2006, 08:51 PM

Hi,
Looking for a bit of help with my PDA based GPS.
I have an Ipaq 4700 TT nav 5 and a Holux slim236 BT, my problem is that TT does not see the Holux and keeps telling me that there is no GPS connected, the Ipaq pairs with the Holux ok and connects ok as it works perfectly with GPS viewer that comes with the unit. I have followed the advice on most of the threads on here but none seem to work, any help would be gratefully accepted.

Make sure you using tomtom 5.21. make sure the holux is the last item paired in the bluetooth list.

Uninstall the GPS viewer. I think this is actually the problem.
