Centrafuse won't recognise my USB SiRF III GPS Receiver

Hi, I am having a problem with Centrafuse 2.0, when I open navigation, it won't display any satellites of get a postition fix. I am using a USB SiRF III GPS Receiver from MoCoSo.

Here is what I have done so far:

- Installed the USB-Serial Driver
- Installed the GPSInfo program
- Run GPSInfo program- finds GPS reciever on Com Port 10 and baud 4800
- picks up satellites and fixes position instantly

Run Centrafuse - set Com Port to 10 and baud to 4800
- load Australian Map

and no signal.

The instructions for the GPS Reciever say to set baud to 57600 but when I do this, the GPSInfo program won't find the reciever at all. I tried all the above with the GPSInfo program opened and closed, with GPS running and not.

Has anyone had a similar problem? Thanks for your help, this forum is fantastic!

mrbean_phillip is on a distinguished road
Set the Comport in Device Manager to 9 or lower, and select same port in CF.

I have had a few instances of this, and are opting to use COM8 -works very well.

Your default baud is most likely 4800, protocol = NMEA
