6.7 Working with GPS
Tap > Settings > System > System Information > Wireless to see if
your device has GPS installed. COM2 is the dedicated hardware port for
the built-in GPS (COM1 is dedicated to the external 9-pin).
The GPS is compatible with applications that accept the NMEA position
information using a default baud rate of 38400.
GPS settings:
If you are using only one GPS-aware application, these settings do not
need to be changed. However, to use multiple GPS-aware applications, tap
> Settings > System > GPS and select the following tabs:
Access: The GPS Intermediate Driver (GPSID) allows
multiple applications to access the GPS receiver. If the check
box is unchecked, the GPSID is disabled.
Hardware: COM2 is the hardware port dedicated for the
built-in GPS. Verify that COM2 is selected. The internal GPS
communicates at 38400 baud by default. If it has been
modified by a third-party program, adjust to match the
receiver baud rate.
Programs: Programs that use GPS need to know which COM
port to use to access GPS data. When using more than one
GPS-aware application, the same GPSID port must be used
in each application. Ensure that the COM port on the
GPS-aware application(s) is set to the same GPSID port as
shown in the Programs tab of the GPS applet. The program
port must be a different port than the hardware port. By
default, the GPS program port is COM3 and should not be
modified unless directed by Technical Support.
NOTE: Some GPS-aware applications may not communicate over GPS
program ports.
