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

Hi,

I can confirm that the HI-303III GPS uses 4800 baud.

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.

Ah....Success!
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
