ArcPAD BT problem resolution form Rick Koehler
We have a HP iPaq Navigation
Bluetooth GPS receiver that we wanted to use. Although
it would connect to the Tablet, ArcPad couldn't see it,
even with "FindGPS" installed.
The problem was that ArcPad only allows setting the COM
port to 1 - 32, and the auto-assign port function of the
Tablet's Bluetooth set the GPS receiver port to COM 40,
which could not be changed.
I discarded that connection setup, and created a new one,
not selecting auto-assign, but instead manually selecting
a COM of my choice (COM6 since I knew it would be exceptable
to ArcPad, and it was unused).
Worked fine. The rest of the settings:
COM = 6
Baud = 4800
Parity = Odd
Data Bits = 8
Stop Bits = 1
