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.4
