X50v + BT-15 + tomtom5 is working
I've got a Bluetooth GPS ( Part number: BT-15 Mfg.Part No.: SDBT15 ) that works fine with tomtom5.
What I did was as following:
1- Do Paired devices (done in X50v, under Bluetooth Manager)
For my BT, I use key 0000 for pairing. You may check
your BT manual for the key. For my case, the BT-15 is
connected to COM7
2- run tomtom 5, select:
Change preferences ->
Show GPS Status -> Configure
Then select "Other Cable NMEA GPS" (Yes Cable, not Bluetooth)
Select GPS baud rate (4800)
At "GPS is connected to:" screen, select "Bluetooth Serial port COM7" (This may depend on what COM# your X50v is connected to your BT)
select Done
That's it.
To operate, turn on your Bluetooth device first, then turn on Bluetooth on your X50v. Then run tomtom5. It may take a couple seconds for tomtom recognize the signel from GPS device.
Hope this help.
If you still have problem, you may need to check to make sure that you X50v can connect to your BT first, before run tomtom.
