Thread: TOMTOM / Pocket PC Emulator / RR

Looks like its all working on my pda emulator. But StevieG how did you get it bigger ? Do you have the PC VGA Skin ? Could you mail it ?

Have to put in the car and test tonight

First time you start it, command line options are similar to:

DeviceEmulator.exe PPC_2003_SE\PPC_2003_SE_WWE_ARMv4.bin /video 800x600x16 /sharedfolder D:\SHARED\PPC /u0 com1 /vmname PPCEmu /s myPPC.bin /nosecurityprompt

after that, to restore the image (like if you turn a PPC on and off etc)

DeviceEmulator.exe /video 800x600x16 /sharedfolder D:\SHARED\PPC /u0 COM1 /vmname PPCEmu /s myPPC.bin /nosecurityprompt

where COM1 is the com port and D:\SHARED\PPC is the directory to use as media card.

myPPC.bin is the 'stored' file that contains the state

This is what it would probably look like if Tom Tom worked on the PC:

Well ladies and gents It seems that the pda emulator and the tomtom version 5 software works. Picks up the USB GPS RECEIVER as long as the emulator is configure to COM3 Serial Port 0 (Or what ever com port your usb device is) and then in TOMTOM configure for OTHER NMEA DEVICE and select Serial Com port 1

Works like a charm

Thanks to all

Now I really want to leave work right now and play.....!!! this is fantastic news....

Will attach some screens shots when I get home from my home computer rather than using this slow work computer lol

Yes I agree possibilities are now endless. Just got to get it to dock to RR and away we go

Thanks to StevieG for the batch files and the help

Great news, have you guys had a chance to check how much resources this emulator takes?

Standard is roughly 96MB of memory usage, about 5% when running pocket PC, upto 100% when using tom tom
