Then you can enable your navigationmap program to enjoy GPS functionnow.5.3. Installation of Mini GPS Viewer programWe provide a program “Mini GPS viewer.exe” for end user to watch the satellitesignal receiving status on laptop or PDA device.For Windows 2000/XP OS, you can execute “Mini GPS viewer_PC” directly.For Microsoft Pocket PC, please copy “Mini GPS viewer_PPC” to SD card or device,then execute “Mini GPS viewer_PPC”.5.4. Execute the Mini GPS Viewer program1) The following window is shown after executing Mini GPS Viewer_PPC,( see Fig.5). The Windows 2000/XP version is just different on display.→
HOLUX M-1000 Bluetooth Bluetooth GPS Receiver Manual14(Fig. 5)2) Setup the Baud rate : 38400, then tap “Scan” button to scan your COM Port.Select your COM Port respectively, then tap “Open GPS” button. Check logscreen below if the satellite data is receiving correctly.(Fig. ) 3) Select “GPS Status” panel to observe the GPS information status , see Fig. 7.(Fig. ) 4) In “setup” panel you can see “Hot Start”“Warm Start”“Cold Start”which allow you to re-acquisition of Ephemeris and Almanac. Basically the satellites are always moving in the sky, if Ephemeris and Almanac data in GPS receiver can’tmeet real satellites status upon you if GPS receiver is over 0.5 hour power off butyou are no longer in the previous position , it takes more time for the GPS receiverto get GPS position fix soon. We suggest you can click “Cold Start” or “Warmstart” to re-acquisitionOr you can remove the battery for 3 seconds and reinsert it,this operation is the same with “Cold Start”.
