I found that a gps reset took care of everything, and the GPS now
reports altitude. Tech help from Navman wasn't helpful - I actually got
the solution from a small program, supplied by Space Machine -
PocketMap Navigator (its a road navigation program - quite good too).
The program is called CE Monitor, and it has a feature which allows you
to reset the GPS. After performing the reset, all data communicated
properly with WinPilot, including altitude. The link to their site's
tech support where the program can be downloaded is:

Regarding lost GPS signal: I haven't had an opportunity to test the
3450 in a glider yet, but I did purchase an external antenna, just in
case I encountered any signal blockage.

I have connected Glide Navigator II with a Navman 3450. The beta
versions
with the new baud rate selection will function. I was not able to
get any
gps altitude (elevation) data though. Any ideas? BTW I did find a
compact
flash gps called global sat on ebay these things are sellling for
about 65
us dollars and work like a charm, with no problems connecting to
GNII.

Hi,

Glide Navigator II now supports the high Baud rate for NAVMAN
users.

I am using it with an Ipaq 3955 and CE Glide. Since
they kindly modified the program to accept the NAVMAN's
unusual data rate, it has worked just fine. The 57600
baud rate has prevented me from using Glide Navigator
II. I have not tried WinPilot.
