QTEK S110 and Holux GPSlim236 - PLEASE HELP

[nickb23]

Hi All,

I have just received a Holux GPSlim236 to go with my Qtek S110, but I am having really hard time getting it to work. The software I am using at the moment is the GPS View, which comes with the reciever.

I have been able to pair them, but that is as far as I get. GPS View cannot see it, neither can some software called GPS Speed Sentry (which has worked with a previous GPS reciever).I have also been on www.pocketgps.co.uk, but I still have not been able to get it working. They keep on mentioning about changing the GPS Com Port, but I cannot find how to do this in Windows Mobile 2003SE. Has anyone been able to sort this out before?

Also do different companies version of Windows Mobile 2003SE differ. For Example could QTEKs Windows Mobile have different bluetooth options compared to Imate, O2 or TMobile? Could this be a reason why I cannot change the COM Port?

If anyone has been able to sort it out, can they let me know, as it is causing BIG headaches!!!

Hopefully I have left enough info...
Thanks

Nick

I found the Holux GPS viewer v1.05 unreliable and replaced it.

I Searched the internet and downloaded TomTom's GPS driver v2.08. I suspect that TomTom BlueTooth GPS is a rebadged Holux product.

Using the v2.08 driver select GPS and on the top of display drop down menu select TomTom Wireless GPS.
Next select from second drop down list Bluetooth Serial port and COM6.

Select Status and please make certain when using the Satellite receiver that your pocket PC BlueTooth Manager is turned ON.

Good luck

Just do the following:

go to
START - SETTINGS - Bluetooth Settings
Check that you have a Bluetooth Serial Port Setup
Inbound COM port: COM4

after that pair the gps receiver with your device.

When your software tries to connect to the gps receiver tell it that it's connect to COM4

That's the way I got mine working with route 66.
