Updates
for

Version 1.50 October 26,
2009
- Added capability to use the Smartphone's internal GPS chip
and modified menu to select various GPS startup options.
Menu >> GPS Setup
Option 1: Auto Bluetooth Selection
- Automatically create a Bluetooth connection to an
External GPS.
No Partnership (Pairing) need to be created prior. No
need to a select COM PORT, Internally uses COM0.
- This mode was created because of Bluetooth Partnerships
on Treo's smartphones. Always had to delete
partnership and create new one after GPS turned back on.
The Refresh of the connection didn't work properly.
- On HP IPAQ's tested this mode will not work. User will
get an Error. "Cannot Auto Detect. Create
Partnership!". Create a Manual Bluetooth Pairing and
will work fine. On the IPAQ's you can do a reconnect
and everything works fine.
Option 2: Manual Bluetooth Pairing
- Allows the user to select an External GPS connected to
Bluetooth via a Partnership (Pairing). User must
select COM PORT that was specified as the Outgoing Port
during partnership creation.
- Works fine on IPAQs tested, but when the user turn off
the External GPS the user must refresh / reconnect the
connection when turned back on.
- On Treo's Smartphones always had to delete the
partnership and create new one after GPS turned back on.
The Refresh of the connection didn't work properly.
That is why we have the Auto Bluetooth Selection mode.
Option 3: Use Internal GPS
- Allows the user to connect to an Internal GPS chip
within the Smartphone. This works for HP IPAQs with a
real internal GPS not a A/GPS (assisted).
NOTE: In the IPAQ user manual is stated that:
If your GPS application needs direct access to the GPS
receiver, make sure no other applications are running, then
set your GPS software to COM7.
So probably on other Smartphones with Internal GPS's we need
to find out correct com port.
- On the IPAQ need to go to Settings > System Tab > GPS
Icon.
Programs Tab > GPS Program Port > None
Hardware Tab > GPS Hardware Port > COM7
Hardware Tab> Baud Rate > 57600
Access Tab > Checked Manage GPS automatically
- User must select the COM PORT that was specified in the
Hardware Tab above.
Option 4: No GPS Available - Work Off-Line
- Allows the user run BoonDocker Off-Line without a GPS
Connected.
Version 1.41 August 6,
2009
- Added capability to send an additional Text Message to the
Inter BoonDocker Location Report message.
Menu >> Loc Reporting >> Send Add Text.
The text message is added to the Recipients Waypoint's
Description field.
The Recipients Location Reference Waypoint will be changed

been added.
Once the Waypoint has been edited (Touched by the Stylus) the

message will be displayed.
Users must be within cell tower range to send and receive SMS
messages.
