5.7.13.2
Communication Setup
This is used to configure the two ports on the back of the S8x/S10x for connecting to a
GPS/FLARM source and to a PDA. Each port can be configured separately.
5.7.13.2.1
Direct link: PDA-GPS link
If your PDA device does not support an automatic switch to DIRECT LINK between the GPS
and PDA ports, there is a manual

menu. The user can select between PDA-
GPS or BT-GPS.
When
automatic baud rate

speeds to receive valid data on the GPS(FLARM) port. When the S8x/S10x receives a valid
NMEA sentence it will lock on that baud rate and stop searching.
