Hi,

I've got N70 with CoPilot but want to switch to TomTom. Got the software and maps-it works fine BUT the GPS Receiver does not work. How can I pair the existing CoPilot receiver to work with TomTom??

Thanks,

Hi,

Thaks.

I get that message when the GPS receiver is paired but has not found enough satellites to work out the position. I wait for a minute or so OR move to a better location (more view of the sky). It is best not to be on the move while trying to get the first fix.

The GPS have a cold start and a hot start. The first time, cold start, can take several minutes before catch the signal.
