How do I get this going? I bought the item and I attached it to my Ipod 4 ( I did receive a 10/10 version). What is next? Do I switch the tab to GPS and start playing?

If so, initially it was attempting to pair but it took too long and I pressed "forget this device".

Switch the the tab to GPS and start your app. They connect via the port on the bottom of the ipod. Have you charged the battery in the cradle? It has it's own battery and may need charged.

You need to go to the Apple app store and download a navigation app like Motion-X or Pocket Earth. Then the GPS device will have something to work with. You don't need to pair it with bluetooth. Just slide the iPod into the cradle (Use the adapter plate if you have a 4th generation iPod). Turn the switch on the back to GPS and you should be good to go. The Motion-X app has a little spinning globe that turns from red to green when it has acquired enough satellites to find your position. Be sure both your iPod and the battery in the GPS device are charged.

Hello A. Hasan,Make sure the battery is charged by pressing the battery button. The lights should be 4 blue dots to show fully charged. NextThe switch in the back must be pushed to the left towards the GPS. The Wireless Internet connection should be off. NextStep outside. Open the Software. Since the iPod does not have an internal compass, you must walk around to get a change in direction. This will show movement on the GPS. Several free apps in the APPS store are available to validate. Another validation is the directional arrow in the upper right hand corner. This will be active when the device has clear vision of the horizon and the open sky. Hello A.

I hate to be a bummer but if you purchased in within the last 30 days return it! buy a real GPS. They will not take it back after 30 days and they are no help at the company with assistance.

I had same problem, IPod touch gen 4. Tried almost a month but worked only twice...most of the time it just sits there reminding me to shut off wifi. Fixed problem by sending it back to Amazon for a full quick refund and then ordering the Bad Elf 1000 unit instead. Now I have reliable GPS on my gen 4. Problem solved.

It's been a while since I used the device, but as I recall I don't think you have to use bluetooth to connect to it. You might try rebooting your ipod after it's plugged into the cradle. Turning off the ipod's wifi definitely helps with gps signal acquisition. Once it gets the signal, you can turn wifi back on. Dual has an app you can download that will tell you when the cradle has picked up the gps signal, and I think the app also gives you some troubleshooting tips.

Tom Tom worked on my iPod 4 with the Dual 10/10 untill there was a Tom Tom upgrade about 3 weeks ago. GPS is working fine on my iPod 2 with Tom Tom which received the same upgrade with the same Dual unit. I contacted Tom Tom and they said to wait for the next upgrade

According to the Dual site they have been shipping models with firmware 10/10 that work with 4th gem iPod. Trouble is I can't find a way to ask Amazon the question. So I will be forced to buy it elsewhere. Please refer to http://gpscradle2.dualav.com/files/Upgrade_Overall%20Instructions.pdf

Well if you are like me you keep experimenting until you figure out what works. There are lots of options, lots of screens, so it can be confusing. But the GPS workout screen is the second screen of the four main screens. Use the mode button to get to the second screen. On the second screen press and hold the Lap/Reset button to activate the GPS then before you take another step press the Start/Stop button. Start hiking now. When you finish press the Start/Stop button and hold down the Lap/Reset button to turn off the GPS. Don't get in the car and drive away without turning your GPS off or your are going to mess up your data when you download the data from you watch. You can see your distance as you hike and you can also see it on the map when you download your data to the runtastic website. That's what works for me, hope it helps.

Yes, I have attempted several times to make it work, but it just won't. I have also tried with an older iPod touch and it still doesn't work. The battery keeps the ipod charged, but no go on the gps, which is why I bought it. If anyone can help me, Id appreciate it!

I newer didn't have Ipod and I'm not sure that iPod has Bluetooth connection at all. Regarding other devices which haves Bluetooth connection, put your device in pairing mode, then press Pairing button on the top of right earphone for 3 seconds. It will start blinking blue light fast. At that time on your device find DRBT101 headphones and press "Pair". After pairing is completed blue LED will blink slowly (once in 5 seconds). That is all.

I sent mine back. I could not get it to work after multiple emails with the company. It comes preloaded with sites that don't exist. I tried four different preloaded locations with my kids - 2 were in the middle of parking lots, one was in the middle of a highway, one was somewhere along the side of a highwsy overgrown with brush. Bought the adapter to connect the device with the website and I couldn't update for my part of the country.

Hey Floyd, As I am kinda tech challenged, it was really simple. I think all I did was turned it on and my iPod found it automatically. If you are still having problems then go to your settings tab on your iPod and make sure you have bluetooth turned on. If it is then go to bluetooth settings and make sure MW600 is connected, If not connected then touch it so it will discover it.If MW600 is not listed press and hold the on-off button on the MW600 unit for about 5 seconds, pairing indicator should appear on display. On your iPod search for and add new device. Enter 0000 if a passcode is required.

Had the same problem with my (ipod) 1st turn it on like you normally do then go to your ipad and turn your Bluetooth settings off then on again repeat this step for 2-5x (make sure to turn your set off and repeat the step 2-5x)2nd if at anytime you attempt to connect your your set to your device and it connects (good) let the battery drain overnights and days or how long it ever takes then let it recharge get a phone charger if you have one that fits it they charge better in my opinion

Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your music player phone or whatever then turn the Jam device on and in the Bluetooth device area you should see it appear. If you have to pair it use the code 0000

I recd mine in the mail today and the charger part doesn't seem to work. It doesn't seem that the USB fits correctly into the charger and the jack doesn't fit firmly into the transmitter. Just doesn't seem like it is the right size. Is that possible? Or am I doing something wrong? It is not charging my ipod while transmitting. HELP?

The instructions in the manual are a bit vague so I can see how it's confusing. Try this: 1. Turn off Bluetooth on your phone. 2. Turn off the speaker. 3. Go to the Bluetooth section in Settings on your phone; don't turn on Bluetooth via the control center (which you may not even have on an iPhone 3). 4. Turn on the speaker (switch on bottom); the blue LED sbove the little Bluetooth symbol should be flashing. 5. Turn on Bluetooth on your phone. 6. "Jam Classic" (or similar name) should appear as a pairing device under "Devices" on your phone; tap to select; you should hear a chime from the speaker letting you know it's connected and the word "Connected" should appear next to Jam Classic (or whatever) on you phone. 7. Voila, you're paired. 8. Always turn on the speaker first and then the Bluetooth on the phone to pair in the future (at least that's what I have to do); no tapping to select the speaker necessary once your phone "knows" your speaker. If this doesn't help (it worked for me) then I'm not sure what you can do.

Hey Dave,No, that's whats nice about this receiver. All you need to do is buy a GPS app that fits you, they range in price from about $15 to over $60. I use CoPilot, also I have an iPod so Make sure you have a 30 pin connector on your iPhone. If your not sure what app will work for you or if the receiver is compatible with your device just email Emprum at support@emprum.com They will probably get back to you the same day.

I wanted to know this as well, and as I was going through the reviews one person said: "I purchased two of these, and the LCD display did not work on one. They do not charge an iPod touch (fourth-generation), so if you were planning to listen to your tunes for hours while driving down the road; you had better make a different plan. Hours later, your battery will be dead. On the other hand, the FM transmitter seems to work okay without the plug-in attachment. "

You should call the Dension Gateway support. The unit I got was compatible to a point. Bluetooth did not work because of a firmware issue, this is the older unit and is not getting any updates. so before you spend the money call the support folks. they do reply to email as well. adds the ipod to my systems and still allows for steering wheel controls, my car is a mercedes, 2006, R500.

Hold the round button down till it flashes quickly, and release. Put your device to make it discoverable. It should say pairing. Click connect to the device name and you should be linked. Maybe your over charging? I had no issue. Love them.
