Configuring My GPS Software to Connect to My HP iPAQ's GPS Receiver
All GPS software applications need to know which communications port to use to access GPS data. Your HP iPAQ already has the GPS port specified for the GPS software applications that came with the device. However, if you install additional GPS applications onto your HP iPAQ GPS enabled device, you may need to specify the GPS port in your GPS application's configuration settings.
If your GPS software does not automatically discover the GPS receiver on your HP iPAQ, set your GPS application's configuration settings to COM8 and a baud rate of 57600. If you need help, refer to the documentation that came with your GPS software application.
