10-3. Configure the GPS Intermediate Driver
The GPS Intermediate Driver is a software layer between a
Windows Mobile application and the GPS hardware
drivers. This allows applications to work with a variety of
GPS hardware. The GPS Intermediate Driver uses the
registry to determine what COM port should be used to
communicate with the GPS hardware. The recommended
way to configure the registry to work with your GPS device
is the GPS Settings icon
1. From the Start menu, click
Settings. On the System tab, click
the External GPS icon. On some
devices, this item has a different
name.
2. On the Programs tab, select
any available COM port from the
GPS Program Port drop-down list.
The GPS data sent through the
GPS Intermediate Driver is
streamed to applications through
this port. This should not be the same port that your GPS
receiver is configured to use. If your application can’t
receive GPS data stream, leave GPS Program Port for
empty. Applications will use GPS Hardware Port as
communication port.
