• COM1, if you are using a wire connection to
MobileMapper Beacon.
• COM4, if you are using Bluetooth.
Note that the
Update
button allows you to update the list of
available ports attached to the
Port

tual port in Bluetooth Manager and the Settings window is
already open.
Note that the
Configuration
button allows you to display the
settings of the selected port. But when selecting
Beacon

the DGPS data source, the settings of the selected port
are in fact forced to 4800 Bd, no parity, 8 data bits and 1
stop bit.
