'Lost' Bluetooth Connection with Holux 236

[mikeact]

Need your help please! I seem to have lost my Bluetooth partnership on my Vario/Wizard with the Holux..(although the Holux is still working fine with my IPAQ which I use for emergencies)

Going into the Vario/Wizard BT settings...its found the Holux fine..and under devices it's showing OK. I've tapped on it and hit Save, but, moving along to Com Ports and hitting 'New Outgoing Port', the Holux shows up, but when I hit next, it shows Com port 6 (or 7) but says 'Comport could not be opened etc.'
How do I open up, or release com 6 and/or 7 ?...Very annoying as TomTom 6 has been working just great, but I don't know what I must have accidently done to screw up the partnership. I've tried to connect on all the Com Ports shown on the TT device, using the 'Othe Blutooth GPS receiver' option, but no luck.

Appreciate a response. Thanks.

I've gotten it to work via COM6 or COM7. Apparently I only have 2 COM ports available COM6 or COM7. One of them is being used for my laptop. So, I chose the available port as my Outgoing port to Holux. If both COM6 and COM7 are used, you may have to delete one of the ports, and assign Holux to use it. You can click and hold on any of the other COM ports and then edit and delete the port configurations.

Good luck, hope that helps a bit.

Thanks a lot..stupid I know, but where do I look to delete a port ! Thanks.

settings->Connections->Bluetooth->COM Ports
Keep the stylus pressed on the port you want to delete until the context menu appears, delete it.
Then, click new outgoing port and recreate it
Use the new created port (6 or 7) with TomTom
Hope it works...
