ASUS P750 GPS settings

[Guest rireed]

I thought this ASUS P750 detail deserved some visibility. From posts by dudegalea and Amplificator on 3 April, I tried this on GPSSppc (http://www.gpss.tripoduk.com) and it works fine:

COM5 57600 N,8,1

dudegalea mentioned 4800, but never mentioned a specific port beyond the Tom Tom 'GPS Port'. Amplificator mentioned COM2 and 4800.

GPSSppc is strictly NMEA and won't work on 4800 on either COM2 or COM5.

The setting above has to be manually entered. Some others can be detected automatically but not this one. 'gpsgate', an adapter program, works on COM2 and successfully runs GPSSppc on another 'virtual port' at 4800.
