Bluetooth GPS

[turps]

I am looking to setup Oziexplorer on my laptop using a Blue tooth GPS. I brought a BT-77 off ebay but cant seem to get it to work.
I am thinking it could be a Vista problem. I can get it so that the comp recognize it. But cant get them to talk.
Anyone got any ideas. I have my bro testing it on another laptop with XP pro. To rule that out.

I've got Vista beta and running oziexplorer with a BT72 GPS bluetooth. Here's how.
Open bluetooth settings (right click in taskbar)

tick the Discovery box

tick the connections box

go to the comms port tab & ensure that the GPS is on the right com port.



In oziexplorer open File - configuration

Goto GPS tab - GPS make = NMEA only

Goto Coms tab - ensure that you change the com port to the same as the computer. Mine is com 4

Everything being equal you should have no problems.
If you still have problems make sure you can put your bluetooth device into slave mode. this may help.

Good luck!
