Bluetooth Operation

1. Tap the hand shown on the command bar to bring up the Devices Nearby window

shown on the previous page in the middle.

2. Generally this will kick off the search automatically. You can also tap the refresh icon to

look for devices nearby. The screen shows that a GPS has been found.

3. Tap twice quickly on the icon to discover the services it provides.

4. Depending on the security settings it may ask you for a passkey. It is 2003 for this device.

(Security level is controlled on Tool > Configuration)

5. The window shown on the previous page at the right will appear.

6. Only the Serial Port service will appear for this a GPS device (on the left near the bottom

as shown by the arrow). Tap it to connect and create a short cut.

7. You are now back to the screen you started with. A connection has been made to the

Bluetooth GPS unit.

8. If this is the first serial device it will also be set as the default device. If you have multiple

serial devices you can choose the default one from a menu.

9. Tap the icon to leave the Manager or just press the WayPoint

button to

bring up the WayPoint application. It can use the Bluetooth GPS connection that was

just created.

This is the minimum needed to set up the Bluetooth GPS but will only need to be done the first

time. For more security you can set a bond between the devices by setting the security to “high

security” on the Tool > Configuration > Options menu. A high security will require you to

enter the security code. It is 2003 to make the connection. The devices will then be paired. It will

remain paired unless you delete the pairing. Only one device at a time can use the serial

connection. Once it is established, the GPS will be locked to your unit as if there was a wire

running between them.

The WayPoint navigation tool will be able to access the Bluetooth GPS on COM 8. While the

Bluetooth CF card does not use as much current as a direct connection of a GPS would, it still

uses some power. It should be turned off when not needed.

Enabling the Bluetooth Driver

Normally the Bluetooth driver will always be running even if the Bluetooth hardware card is

removed. If the Bluetooth icon is missing from the bottom of the Today screen it means the

driver are not running. Use the start menu > programs and start the driver by tapping the

Bluetooth icon named BlueSoleil. If the driver is already running tapping this icon will do

nothing. A copy of this icon should be in the startup folder (\Windows\Startup) to automatically

start the Bluetooth driver after a software reset.
