Note:The setting may vary in other PocketPC or Smartphone , please check the manual or consult the technical service respectively. 2. Tap the Bluetooth icon to start “Bluetooth Manager” on PocketPC to enable Bluetooth function. 3. In “Devices” panel , tap “New partnership” to search Bluetooth devices nearby. If the result is not found, tap “Refresh” to research again. 4. Choose the Bluetooth device “HOLUX_M-1200XX” and tap “Next” → 5. Connect to “Serial port” or “SPP Slave”, then tap “Finish” 12 HOLUX M-1200XX Bluetooth GPS Receiver Manual 6. Go to the “COM ports” panel to tap “New Outgoing Port”, choose “HOLUX_M-1200XX” device and tap “Next”. → 7. Select the COM port, then tap finish, it will show as right figure, and tap “OK” to finish the Bluetooth setting. Recommand not to use “Secure Connection” which may cause unstable connection. 8. Then you can enable your navigation map program to enjoy GPS function now. 5.3. Installation of Mini GPS Viewer program We provide a program “Mini GPS viewer.exe” for end user to watch the satellite signal 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 program 1) The following window is shown after executing Mini GPS Viewer_PPC,( see Fig. 5). The Windows 2000/XP version is just different on display. (Fig. 5) 13 HOLUX M-1200XX Bluetooth GPS Receiver Manual 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 log screen below if the satellite data is receiving correctly. (Fig. 6) 3) Select “GPS Status” panel to observe the GPS information status , see Fig. 7. (Fig. 7) 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’t meet real satellites status upon you if GPS receiver is over 0.5 hour power off but you are no longer in the previous position , it takes more time for the GPS receiver to get GPS position fix soon. We suggest you can click “Cold Start” or “Warm start” to re-acquisition. Or you can remove the battery for 3 seconds and reinsert it, this operation is the same with “Cold Start”. 14 HOLUX M-1200XX Bluetooth GPS Receiver Manual 6.
