How do I get the GPS accessory or to get the GPS working?

I bought mine from the Kim Komando site bit works by plugging it in to the top right gps slot. It does not display LAT/LONG or speed. It only provides this information on the app while reviewing the files along with the moving google earth map when on a PC or some other device.

Plug it into the dash cam. It will take a while to respond to your 1st use.

Maybe this function only works with the Kim Komando function accessory? http://shop.komando.com/dual-lens-dash-cam-gps-accssory

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.

I don't see any reference to GPS in the instruction manual or about GEO tagging

Make sure your batteries are in the right way for one. Then just plug into the side of the camera were it says GPS and other symbols

Try using a different connector. My cell phone wasn't charging, so I tried a different wire and it worked! But you may have a dead battery that won't take a charge, which may require buying a new battery or a new GPS.

Usually a gps needs the lighter socket to power up. The USB is not that powerful. Are you sure your gps has a usb connection?

That's a good question... the seller I bought mine from doesn't exist anymore. The current Amazon seller is IWINW, maybe they have an online website you can download from. Most of the reviews I've read are negative, but mine works fine. The trick is getting it started correctly out of the box, the programs are there... you just need to find the right start-up file and then it will start-up correctly every time after that. It is made in another country and it doesn't work like any of the standard brand GPS units... Magellan, Garmin, TomTom,...

A new Garmin will come with a car adapter. I had another GPS that I could not find the adapter

For the GPS to work it needs a GPS antenna connected to the GPS port on the back of the head unit, the GPS antenna is supplied.

Thanks. The web updater didn't seem to work. Because my parents have the same GPS, I tried it in their receiver and it worked. I realized that the receiver itself was defective. I'm in the process of returning it - I will probably give another one a shot, overall I think it's a nice unit.

I just checked to see if a gps would work. If you have a smaller gps yes it should work.

You should have a cord that connects into the computer. This should have been included when you bought the garmin. I would go back to the company and tell them you need everything that comes the the garmin.

Thanks, DS. Garmin's reply to me was that i must be using a non-Garmin charger. I'm using the charger that came in the box! This thing is brand new. I just let them know that and I'll post back with their reply.

You need a USB cable with a mini connector for the GPS and connector that fits your computer. You'll also need to download the app appropriate for your PC's operating system that can "talk" to the GPS and install the updates or additional features while connected.

Spy Tec has mentioned back on the April 9th that they should have it for sale separately in about a week or so. http://forum.dashcamtalk.com/threads/marcus-1-or-3-anyone-got-them-in-stock-yet-shipping-to-usa.4886/#post-59201Post # 15 hereAlso be aware that the GPS looks like it will not function until you install the newer firmware do to be released soon.
