GPS and E200 problems

[Guest 1nsan3]

i have just got a bluetooth gps receiver, it bonds with my phone no problems, however it seems that the e200 is limited in the serial port profile options as it only allows com port 6 to be used for receiving data, it appears that my bluetooth device is set to a different com port as when i use the mapopolis software it fails to see my gps receiver, i have tried setting the com port to auto on mapopolis and alos com 6 neither of which seem to work.

any help greatly received as i dont want to go and have 2 buy a pda

Hi 1nsan3

You need to set Mapopolis to COM7.

What I find works is to unbond the GPS, go to BT Serial Setup and clear both boxes then go back into BT Serial again and tick the COM7 box. It will then ask you to bond with your device, then bond as before.

Hope this helps.
