All,

I tried to install a Bluetooth-GPS-Antenna (Mod. Xaiox -Skysurf V3) - this seemed to be partially successful. The GPS-device was identified - but with a ?-Mark - so I don't know the status as such. Just 2 references were given - incoming-port COM6 and outgoing COM7.

Second I tried to activate the GPS-Antenna with the Navigon 5.1-Software - this program normally identiefies the GPS-Antenna automatically - didn't work. Optionally the user may define ports being scanned ond the MDA. There were only the ports

COM1(ser), COM2(Xpanel), COM3(IrCom), COM4(Infrared), COM8(Serial USB) an COM9(QDATA).

The ports 5, 6 an 7 are not listet and shown.

Finally I have not been able to install the application with GPS-support.

I would like to find out who has similar experiences and possibly found solutions to it.

Thanks in advance.

hi,

I add a similar trouble with my niki100.

I just boot a niki100, with orange provider in france. I'm tryng to use a bluetouth gps antena.

both equipement (phone & antenna) are copled but when I'm launching the navigor software then the gps peripheric is shown. that it good but this is only during approximatively 10 seconds.

I checked all configurable possible, including the verification of the saving alimentation rule.

withou success, all is working well but onlyfor a very short period.

I tried the antenna with another pda, it is working well. all tests were done with success. I don't understand whynot with the niki.

I did a complementary test, I tried the niki with another gps antenna and it is working well too.

I conclud about a compability issue between my antenna and the niki. maybdo to the bluetooth version.

is it existing a .cab to update the bluetooth driver?

thank you.
