Mobility Site - View Single Post - Need help with Bluetooth GPS Navteq on Board and Axmin x51v

Hi guys,

I just bought a used X51v and it came with a Navteq On Board Bluetooth GPS receiver and the Dell Navigation SW (2CDs).

I have been trying for days to get it working but somehow I can't figure it out. I had the GPS working once but it crashed when I closed the Dell Navigation Application. I had to hard reset the Axim but since then I am not successful to redo what I did before.

I had the GPS working once again with Google Maps but it's won't work with the Dell Nav SW. I reinstalled it - no change.

Can somebody please tell me step-by-step how to connect? What are the settings? Do you let WM5 handle the GPS or do you handle it manually? Secured or unsecured COM port? What am I doing wrong?

This is what I did to get it working occasionally (not very stable):
- WM5->GPS settings: turn Automatic management of GPS off (access tab)
- turn Buetooth On
- new partnership -> GPS receiver is found (BT-GPS-00E2B1) It asks for access code: entered 0000, but it will not accept it, then I enter nothing, hit Next
- A pop up shows up and asks me if I want to add the GPS receiver, I click Yes
- It asks again for the passcode, 0000 works now
- Check Serial Support & Finsh
- COM Ports: New Outgoing Port -> COM7, disable Secure Connection checkbox
- hit Finish
- Bluetooth icon on the today screen turns green

I started Google Maps, Set it to COM7, 4800 baud and it worked once. I stopped Google Maps and made sure it is not running anymore (task stopped)
The Dell Navigation will still not work, no GPS detected

I noticed that if I select Secure Connection in the COM port setting, it will ask me again if I want to add the GPS to the Bluetooth list as soon as a application tries to read data from COM7. If I say Yes, it will remove the previously created partnership and nothing will work anymore.

What am I doing wrong? Help please!
