Setting up
Setting up a connection with your PDA or Smartphone
Ensure that the TomTom Wireless GPS receiver is switched on. When you open the
TomTom NAVIGATOR 5 or TomTom MOBILE 5 applications, a connection to the TomTom
Wireless GPS receiver will be made automatically. If you leave your GPS switched on and
do not connect it to your device, it will automatically switch off after 5 minutes in order to
conserve battery life.
Please refer to the Bluetooth connection setup instructions in the documentation that
comes with your PDA, Smartphone or laptop. You will need to set up a Serial Port
connection between the GPS receiver and your device. The GPS receiver will appear to
your device as the “TomTom Wireless GPS” and its GPS signal will be output on its “GPS
serial output”.
To ensure ease of use, create a Bluetooth bond between your device and the GPS
receiver. The pairing code is 0000. Please check specic device setup information on our
support pages at www.tomtom.com.
After setting up the Bluetooth connection, you will need to modify the properties of
the software on your PDA, Smartphone or laptop to use the GPS signal from the GPS
receiver. Please refer to the documentation of your device, and of your software. Choose
the NMEA protocol.
Press and hold the power button for 3 seconds to perform reset.
Mounting
Your TomTom Wireless GPS receiver can be used when in your pocket or bag. When
using it in a vehicle, make sure it is placed correctly for optimal GPS signal reception
and stays in place. You can ensure that the GPS receiver gets a proper GPS signal by
testing it in a stationary situation with your PDA or Smartphone. Note that many modern
vehicles have a heat reective shield embedded in the windshield preventing good
reception when the GPS receiver is placed on the dashboard. If you have problems
getting a GPS signal, try placing the TomTom Wireless GPS receiver behind a rear
window of your car.
