BT-308 at a glance
1. Introduction
The BT-308 is a GPS receiver with Bluetooth interface and built-in active antenna for
high sensitivity to tracking signal. Based on the SiRF star Ⅱe/LP low power chip set and
supports all functions(SingleSat updates in reduced visibility, Superior urban canyon
performance, FoliageLock for weak signal tracking, etc.). The BT-308 is well suited to
system integration and users who use PDA, Smart phone, Tablet PC and Notebook PC with
Bluetooth devices. It satisfies a wide variety of applications for car navigation, personal
navigation or touring devices, tracking and marine navigation purpose.
1.1 Package
Before you start up, make sure that your package includes the following
items. If any items are missing or damaged, contact your dealer immediately.
Bluetooth GPS Receiver
A CD with the User Manual and the Testing Program.

1.2 A, positive pole center.
1.3 LED Function
Bluetooth Status LED (Blue):
Blinking (Slowly) ---- Not connected to any Bluetooth devices.
Blinking (Quickly) ---- Connected to other Bluetooth device.
GPS Status LED (Green):
Blinking ---- GPS position is fixed
Steady light ---- GPS position not fixed
Battery Status LED (Red/Yellow):
Red ---- Battery power is critically low. Charge immediately.
Yellow ---- Battery is charging now.
LED off ---- Battery partially full or Battery is fully charged.
1.4 External Antenna
Basically, you don’t need external antenna to perform GPS positioning with BT-308 since
it already build-in active antenna. The only condition that you need external antenna is when
BT-308 unit can not “see” the sky, For instance, when you are in any environments that GPS
signal is blocked, the external GPS antenna will help to receive better GPS signal.
Plug the external antenna with MMCX connector to the plug on BT-308. Place the
magnetic external antenna on the roof of the car or an outdoor open-space, and make sure
place it in correct direction. That is, the side with magnetic is the bottom side, and the upper
side must face to sky in order to receive better signal.
Notice:
Hold the antenna connector while you plug the external antenna into the BT-308 or
unplug the external antenna from the BT-308. Do not pull the cable line.
2. Usage
2.1. For PDA which built-in Bluetooth (Example: iPAQ 3870/3970)
1.
Switch the BT-308 power on.
2. Please refer to the user manual of PDA to enable the Bluetooth of PDA
connecting to the BT-308. Some PDAs may need the Bluetooth passkey, the
passkey is “2003”.
3. Check the number of COM port used by Bluetooth.(Example the iPAQ 3970 is
the output port COM 8).
4. Running the suitable mapping/navigation software and select the correct COM
port(iPAQ 3970 is the output port COM 8)& baud rate : 38400
2.2. For PDA with Bluetooth Compact Flash card
1.
Switch the BT-308 power on.
2. Please refer to the user manual of Bluetooth Compact Flash card to enable it
connecting to the BT-308. Some Bluetooth devices may need the Bluetooth
passkey, the passkey is “2003”.
3. Check the number of COM port used by Bluetooth.(Example COM 6).
4. Running the suitable mapping/navigation software and select the correct COM
port & baud rate : 38400.
2.3. For Notebook with Bluetooth device
1.
Switch the BT-308 power on.
2. Please refer to the user manual of Bluetooth device to enable it connecting to the
BT-308. Some Bluetooth devices may need the Bluetooth passkey, the passkey
is “2003”.
3. Check the number of COM port used by Bluetooth.(Example COM 6).
4. Running the suitable mapping/navigation software and select the correct COM
port & baud rate : 38400.
Note: Most of the applications, the Bluetooth device have an “auto-detect” feature
that you do not need to select Baud Rate.
3. How to test your Bluetooth GPS Receiver ?
The testing program only supports the Microsoft Windows CE & Pocket PC based PDA
platform.
1. Run the “GPSinfo.exe” to execute the installation procedure of testing program (via
PC and ActiveSync).
2. Run the “GPS Information” program from “Start → Program files” of PDA.
Here is the description of “GPS Information” testing program as follows:
User must select COM port , Baud Rate (38400) and click the [Star GPS] button to start
receiving GPS data.
Note: Most of the applications, the Bluetooth device have an “auto-detect” feature
that you do not need to select Baud Rate.
