TTQV does not com with GPS or Palm

I use Gpilots with my Geko201 to store some daily treks.
Until some days ago the comm was OK
- from GPS to Palm,
- from GPS to TTQV
- from Palm to TTQV.
Now GPS to Palm is OK, but TTQV does not accept anything from the Palm or GPS.
The error msg with the GPS is "no response from Garmin on COM3 at 9600 bauds"
The error msg with the Palm is "error in Garmin data transfer, error code 0, no response from device"
However the Palm and the PC communicate allright in HotSync, so COM3 works.
The setting in TTQV is COM3, 9600bauds, Garmin-Garmin.

Any clue as to where to look for a solution?
Thanks,

Hi Jockel,
I reinstalled from CD after uninstall and all worked well.
Then I upgraded to v80 and I got the same problem as before.
I note that v80 has some changes on Palm Hotsync PW3. Maybe this change distubed other Palm access protocols.
How do I revert to 79?
Thanks,
Pierre

Hi Jockel,

Unfortunately 88 does not work either. I wished Progie looked at the code he changed from 79 to 80.

I would like two run two versions of TTQV. One which works with the Palm and the latest, until that one works with the Palm. Would that create any confusion in the programs? I realize I need to synchronize the QU files from one directory to the other so that each appli has access to the complete set of maps, tracks, etc.

Is that all I need to do?

Regards,

Pierre

Hi Jockel.
Reinstalled from CD after uninstall.
1) can't find Canada.od2, not that I care much, but it says that for each installation.
2) Then on calling TTQV3 I get a msg:
"QV Error: 3307, Sdb_Datums_Read, the number of columns in the two selected tables queries of a union query don't match"
If I hit OK,( what to do next anyway?) I get another msg:
3) Can't find datum: WGS84 which is stored in this map. Please go to calibration window and select a datum for the list."
No need to say that I am given a clue as to which "this map" is.
The program then opens, and as soon as I try to enlarge the window it shuts off.
Confused !!!

Jockel,

I have a CD with v32 on it I cannot figure out how erasing the ini file will promote the appli to v79. Else, rather than v79 I would rather chose a promotion to v999 ;-).

Anyway I have reinstalled once more after
uninstall
AND erasing the TTQV3 folder, which uninstall does not do.
AND not installing the America, canada.od2, just in case.
And now I do not get the error msgs.
And the comm works with the Palm.
Still I would like to have access on a separate installation folder to v79 (or 999)

Regards,

To be honest I do not know which version I had before 80. :oops: I said 79, but I am not sure. I update usually a couple of weeks after the announcement in case there are a few bugs still hanging.

Anyway 79 fails as well. I may have had 77 or 78. Can you give me access to those and I will test them as well.

Thanks,
Pierre

Thanks Jockel,
BTW I installed 70 over 88 without first uninstalling 88. Sounds a bit heretic, but it worked.
Hope Progi finds what he changed.
