Gosman Posted August 30, 2004 Report Posted August 30, 2004 Help! I am trying to get my IpaQ 5400 working with gpsout and pocketfms with no success at all. Here is what I did: Downloaded the latest gpsout utility and placed the dll and .ini files in the module folder of FS2002. I modified the .ini file with the following: [GPSout] Sentences=RMC,PGRMZ,GGA Interval=100 Port=COM2 Speed=57600 (I tried other speeds as well) I configured my PDA version of pfms to match (i.e, GPS on COM 2 & 57600 Baud) The PDA comes with a serial and USB cable so I didn’t need to modify or buy new serial cable. PDA is connected and verified on COM2 of the PC running FS. I started the FS (even selected GPS on FS, not sure if it makes any difference), enables the GPS on the PFMS. I would expect at this point the GPS information flowing to the PDA. Unfortunately this is not the case! I tried it with activesynch on the same COM port, different COM port and even with activesynch disabled. Same results :cry: Can anyone please help? Thanks, Gosman BTW – It run flawlessly with a BT-GPS using bluetooth connection.
