How you enable and disable sentances varies from recever to recever. Check your manuals. They will tell you the proper commands to send to your GPS.

I don't know if the Earthmate GPS has configurable output. You'll have to check that too.

Just get CoPliot Live Laptop 7. If you have a registered version of CoPilot, the upgrade is $99.00 and it includes shipping. It works with all NEMA compliant GPS. Mine came with USA, Canada, and Europe. The $99.00 included the activation keys for the USA and Canada. I don't know how much Europe is. There are a few things I don't like about it such as the new speech engine and the fact that it has to be activated on line or by phone, but once activated, you can copy it to any computer you want and it works. There more features like traffic updates if you have a connected PC.
