Outputting GPS data to external equipment
The GPS Connector software is pre-installed on the 
GeoExplorer 2008 series handheld. Use the software to 
specify how the integrated GPS receiver communicates 
with equipment that is connected to one of the 
handheld’s external communications ports.
To open GPS Connector, tap 
Settings Connections GPS Connector
The GPS Connector software lets you connect the GPS 
COM ports to COM1 or Bluetooth ports and configure 
port settings such as the baud rate. GPS Connector 
software has a graphical display that shows all active 
connections, and a text display that shows connection 
messages.
Use the GPS Connector software to output NMEA or TSIP messages from the 
integrated GPS receiver to another device, such as an external data collector. 
Note – 
If you are using a Bluetooth port, ensure that the 
Bluetooth radio is on and the handheld is visible to other 
devices.  Use the GPS Connector software to configure 
NMEA or TSIP output to Bluetooth - COM9, which is the 
pre-defined Bluetooth Host Serial Port. For more 
information, see 
.  
The connections that you create in the GPS Connector 
software are active only while the software is running. 
Connections created by the GPS Connector software are 
labeled GPS Connector in the status screen and end when 
you exit the software.
For more information, refer to the GPS Connector Help.
