GPS stream through serial connection - P3600 General

I need to know if it is possible to use the micro usb connector on the P3600 as a serial port.
Suppose I have a device that can feed a serial stream and I want to use TomTom to show a moving map of the gps data I submit to the P3600, would that be possible?
If not, are there any other Mobile devices that have a serial port through their (micro) usb connector?
Thanks in advance!

Can a serial GPS receiver be used with Jam?

I have tomtom 5 with a wired GPS and a powered PDA mount with a GPS input into it.
The Jam cannot seem to recognise the GPS when I link it into the PDA mount
Does anyone know how to make it work if at all does it work?
I'm not sure if the USB connect caters for a serial input??
HELP!!!!!
having the same issue, is there anyway what so ever?
no, not posible, there is no driver-less conversion posible from serial to usb, and the usb port can't act as usb Host

Serial connection on Pocket PC

Hi there
I seem to have a number of issues these days when it comes to setting up things like CISCO routers that require a "console" connection via a serial port in order to be programmed. Even the humble laptop no longer seems to sport a serial port.
Just wondering if anyone has come accross a SDIO card that will allow you to connect to a 9 pin D serial cable or a dongle that will convert the mini USB on the back of a universal to a serial cabble.
Fingers crossed.

Does the Hermes have a serial port?

Looking at http://www.pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=462 it says "Serial: RS-232 , 115200bit/s" But where would this plug in? Is there a special cable for the USB / Audio port that allows RS232 instead of USB?
Also on eBay you can get a car kit with built in GPS http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HTC-TyTN-Powe...emZ150099357396QQcategoryZ75447QQcmdZViewItem if this is through a physical (not bluetooth) connection there must be a serial port.
Anyone tried this?
Thanks

Mini USB to Serial Cable?

Hey guys!
I've searched and searched for something to allow me to transfer data via a serial cable from my phone to device.
Let me try to explain this.
HTC Wizard
Windows Mobile 6 (Explore 1.1)
I have style tap (palm os emulator)
Software for palm os for a stand alone fuel managment system (msefi.com)
So on my car, I use a serial cable to program and get realtime data.
Now I know they make bluetooth to serial adapters for around 70, but I was wondering if they make a mini usb to serial cable for the Mobile OS.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
Chris
Well, you could theoretically get a USB to serial adapter that has a cable. Then cut the USB connector that goes to the PC off the cable and just splice the miniusb plug onto the end. I don't know about device support though I'm going to guess you would have to at least come up with a driver and the device might not support that type of functionality at all anyways.
Since the Wizard doesn't have a USB Host (aka USB OTG) the short answer is no. Even more importantly, the wizard won't power the serial adapter so the device is a dud to begin with.
The odds that the BT to RS232 connector method will work are far greater than the USB method.

Hermes USB Connector Details

Hi Folks,
Just wondering... I'm trying to get a little application to work on Hermes PDA and I need to connect a Serial device which has a DB9 RS232 connector...
I know there's a Serial port 'inside' the USB connection on the Hermes, I was wondering if anyone knows of a pinout etc. to enable me to build an adapter to plug in the bottom of the PDA which will then allow me to connect my DB9 RS232 device?
Any help gratefully received!...
Regards,
Rob.
no serial ?????
Hi FactionOne,
there's no serial port on on USB connector .
It's only USB-device port, mixed with audio signals on this port.
Bootloader got also support for USB device port.
So it's possible for the host to emulate serial support. That's all!
At least so far as i know
Regards,
scholbert
better grab you a good ol blue angel
