Pocketfms mit IPAQ 4150 und HOLUX GR-230

  • Hi all,
    after playing around for three days and reading a lot , i finaly founrd out how it works.


    1. take ipaq
    2. install active sync 3.7.1 and make it working with you pc as usual
    3. buy a holux GR-230
    4. install software it via bluetooth manager
    5. usually the mouse connects through COM 6 with the IPAQ.
    6. download the BTREG tool - and just install it on ipaq
    7. install the gpsviewer from HOLUX (its on the support CD)
    8. start bluetooth manager and establish connection
    9. start gpsviewer - do a scan - you will see the mouse connects through
    port COM6
    10. now stop the GPSviewer and the connection to mouse
    11. apply the registry hack BtBrowserenabled as described
    at khoeniger (i don'remember the exact name)
    12. install pocket fms
    13. start the registry tool (PHM registry editor)
    14. locate HkeyCurrentuser\Software\WAD\Pocketfms\settings
    15. there locate key gpsval and set value nothing
    16. now create key GPSBAUDRATE with value "4800 Baud" or to the value
    you have seen with gpsviewer for your port
    17. create a key GPS with value "COM6:" or set it to the value found with
    gpsviewer.
    18. close registry editor
    19. start Bluetooth connection to you mouse - or best do a normal
    reset on the IPAQ. Bluetooth manager should start automatically
    20. go to bluetooth manager, start connection with mouse
    21. now start pocket fms and feel free - it should work directly.


    happy landings
