XDA 2 - BT GPS Rceiver problems

[Gadget1st]

I have purchased a CPIT GP-27 GPS receiver and I cannot get the thing to pair with my XDA II. :x

According to all information i have found so far the GP-27 does not have a secure link to the XDA II but the XDA II and my Nokia 6680 want you to enter a password (security key which is supposed to be 000000).

Is there any 3rd party software that allows you to connect without using a security code

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Gadget1st

As palm users, on this forum, we generally don't have much if any experience of PPC's.

But in my limited experience of Bluetooth, you always need to pair devices. albeit only once if you have it saved to a trusted list.

To pair the BT receiver should be on, with the indicator light on (I have a Tom Tom BT receiver & it flashes blue when it is on, and also flashes green when it is receiving a satelite signal).
Do a search of nearby BT devices using your PPC. Your receiver should show up. select it and you will be prompted for the pass code. They are normally 0000 (4 zero's)- all of my BT devices are. Then my Tom Tom receiver blue light turns solid.

As for 3rd party software - ask on a PPC forum.

Hope this helps.
