Bluetooth instead of RS232

2006-12-18, 12:33 pm

I had a system that communicate with a GPS antenna via an RS232 connexion. I
want to replace this antenna by a GPS-PDA. I have found a software that
redirects NMEA codes from antenna to bluetooth, but I don't know how the
software in the PC can acquire via RS232 datas from bluetooth, (I have now a
bluetooth key on USB) . Have you an Idea ? Does it exists a software that
can make the bridge beetween RS232 and bluetooth ?

thanks for infos.

I am not totally sure about that, but certainly there are quite
workable USB to RS232 cables. We use that here some.

Have you checked with your hardware manufacturer?

BT has a serial port profile which your BT GPS receiver will use
