Is there a Programm to use the Artemis als Bluetooth GPS Reciever on a PC?
I don't know if this is possible but it would be nice. I dont want to buy a gps dongle for my laptop when the artemis can do it. ^
if you're going to use pc inside a building there is very little chance that you'll get any gps signal at all. if it's a laptop and you want to run around with it outside, that should be ok. i don't know any software for it but keep looking.
Franson GPS Gate should do the job
I use Franson GPSgate works over bluetooth and activesync
Use GPS2Blue, it's Freeware and does the job too.

hibut how toconfigure it that artemisworks line bt gps?
Establish a bluetooth connection over bluetooth using a serial port. Open GPS2Blue and set it to Com4 for GPS and 4800 Baud and select the right com port you are using for the bt-serial connection. Should work.

Can anyone tell me why TT Routeplanner doesn't "see" my BT GPS?
I also have Destinator3 installed on my PPC and works perfectly with my GPS Receiver. So I assume that it is not a bluetooth connection problem.
Please, anyone?
what kind of GPS receiver do you have ?
does it support serial port profile ?
what drivers have u selected in TT GPS ?
Did you update to the latest version of TT ?
I have a BT48.
Yes, it supports SPP
No drivers were selected in TT GPS, simply because TT does not see a gps connection. I click on GPS Setup (within TT settings), but nothing happens.
TT Routeplanner doesn't have a new version. It has been replaced and it is not supported any longer.
Any suggestions?
Is the gps receiver listed in the bluetooth section of your ppc ? (settings-connections-bluetooth)
Try removing the link, then bond again using outbound Com 5 (spp)
In TT GPS manually select NMEA 0183v2 Bluetooth in the upper box and
com 5 in the lower drop down box. Then tick the blue box left.
I solved the problem, which by the way was so silly that I refuse to mention it. :wink:
Thanks anyway pleum
since upgrading to tomtom6 my ba wont connect to my gps reciever, just says no gps device. if i reconfig it to bluetooth gps it trys to connect but wont even try with my wired gps iv even tried changing the gps. anyone got any ideas?
Which OS have you got on the BA?
If its WM2003SE have you gone to BT manager found the GPS unit tap and hold, then select "Connect" - BEFORE trying to configure the GPS in TT.
If its WM2005 have you selected the serial port mode and then set the outgoing Com port? - again this must be done BEFORE trying to configure the GPS in TT. - Mike
tomtom gps
im trying to use a wired gps reciever
In which case go to Start/ Settings/ Connections Tab select IrDA or Beam once in this page deselect the "Recieve all beams" check box, then try again with the TT unit (the IrDA stops the Com port from working) - Mike
job done
many thanx, wish i'd of asked before buying a new cradle and gps lol.
Hi!
Is there a way to use the GPS receiver that is built into the Artemis as a GPS Device for Windows (XP or Vista).
Maybe over Bluetooth or USB / ActiveSync connection.
I tried to set up Bluetooth COM Ports so Incoming BT connections connect directly to the GPS COM port, but without success... no gps data was coming through.
Also I search for a small tool to test the receiver... just a compass or something.
regards,
Daniel
You cannot just "bridge" the GPS com port to your desktop OS via BT. The BT stack was never designed that way. All BT com ports you use must have a piece of software behind it to fill it with data, or otherwise they are just empty cans.
In your case, you need a GPS splitter to get gps signals from the GPS com port, and then repeat it to a BT com port so that the other end can receive such signal. That will provide a working bridge for your data.
Try software such as gpsgate that works as described above.
Hello, you can try GPS2Blue is a little free program that will let you use your Artemis as a GPS.
You can find it here: http://users.skynet.be/hofinger/GPS2Blue.html
Enjoy.
i got myself GPS2Blue and installed it.
My problem now is, that i cannot set up a BT COM port!
I have the (german) B&Bv3 ROM (WM6). In Bluetooth Settings in the "COM Ports"-Tab. It says "Tap on 'New outgoing port' ..." but theres no button or something. Just the describing text and an empty ListBox.
since I cannot set up my COM port, GPS2Blue won't swich on right?
So... is this a WM6 bug or a B&B Bug or my brain-bug
Setting up COM ports in my firmware WM5 OS worked just fine.
Thanks you guys for the info!
but what to do now?
GPSgate can do what you want (but it is not free)
gpsgate can set up bluetooth com ports? i dont think so
this is not a gps problem anymore!
i posted a new thread for my new problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=315687
GPSGate can do it!!
Use this is the registration key:AmzeaBjw
Then your Artemis can pass GPS information to your PC through Bluetooth
Fransons GPS Gate will enable the sharing of GPS position to a number of different types of device, I am not too sure about posting a registration key for purchased software as these are specific to an individual user??? - Mike
I have a Garmin eTrex Vista HCx which has a mini USB. I want to connect the GPS to my HTC PocketPC, Cingular 8525. Anybody has an idea whether it can be done. If possible where can I find such a cable to connect from the phone to the miniUSB on the GPS.
Thanks,
GPS on 8525
I have the same Garmin and an 8525. Using a cable with gps is not very satisfying. I also have a Globalsat 359 bluetooth receiver which works extremely well with TomTom on my 8525.

Just a FYI, since no cell phone I have ever heard of is a USB Host, this will never be possible. Bluetooth is your only way to go. I use the Holux GPSSlim 236 and it works great!
NO CAN DO..... only bluetooth..

there has anyone can do, how to map phone's com9 to PC?
for example:
serial port over network utility....
GPS2Blue
Don't know about mapping hardware port through network, but GPS2Blue seems to be a solution for using your device as an external GPS for your notebook/desktop either through Bluetooth or TCP/IP.
thanks, it's really can map the com port!
thank you a lot!
