Frequently Asked Questions
Which GPS/Map application software can I use?
There are a lot of major application software packages available. The mini-S3
will work with any mapping software that uses the industry standard NMEA
messages. For laptops and Window Mobile devices, we recommend CoPilot
Live from www.alk.com
. For the Palm OS, we recommend the EMTAC
Navigator Palm OS software.
Can I use the Crux-View for navigation purpose?
No. The Crux_View Test Program is only for evaluation and for testing purposes
only; it is NOT designed for navigation.
What is the passkey or pin code for the mini-
S3 paring with the PDA?
Please key-in: 0183. This the passkey or the pin code required.
I have already paired the mini-
S3 BTGPS Receiver with the PDA, but
sometimes it just cannot connect to the mini-
S3.
Delete the ‘old
BTGPS icon’ on your Bluetooth manager software, and re-search
and pair it again.
It is possible to charge the battery and at the same time use the mini-
S3?
Yes. This means you can have continuous use of the mini-S3 BTGPS Receiver.
The GPS program is not showing my location.
If the green light on the mini-S3 is flashing, check to see that you have the
correct COM port and baud rate selected (4800-38400) and that your device is
paired with the mini-S3. If the green light is not flashing, position the receiver
so that it has an unobstructed view of the sky. If the green light is not flashing
after being outside for more than fifteen minutes, please contact technical
support.
The green light on my mini-S3 BTGPS will not come on.
Remove the unit from external power source. Turn unit on and let the
batteries drain for 24-48 hours. After 24-48 hours, fully charge the mini-S3
and turn on. If green light is still off, please contact Technical Support for
more information.
