Can GPSlim 236 battery be replaced?

GPSlim 236 use standard Nokia 6xxx or Nokia3650 series batteries. Unlike HOLUX batteries, however, Nokia batteries
might not support temperature protection which stop charging the battery when charging temperature is over 60C.

Why do I get the error message “USB device not recognized error” when I plug GPSlim 236 to my computer?

Please note the enclosed cable with GPSlim 236 is only for power charging, you have to purchase the optional USB
data cable for data communication with computer.

I can’t use my GPSlim236 with TomTom navigator, what should I do?

Please note that TomTom has made some changes from TomTom3 to TomTom5.

1.TomTom3: You should be able to connect our BT receivers with TomTom by selecting NMEA 0183v2 38400 Bluetooth
Serial Port from the GPS setting list.

2.TomTom5: In the TomTom setting you have to assign a GPS-device. The Holux device is displayed as a wireless
GPS. When you select this item, TomTom doesn't work. However, when you select the option Another Cable-NMEA-GPS
(this is in the TomTom GPS Setup), and set the Baudrate to 9600 (38400 should be working as well), you will only have
to choose the right com port (which is detectable with your test software) and it will work as a wireless GPS.

Please note the above setting is only suitable for Pocket PC systems.
