Use of GPSServ

**markcame** · 10-11-2006, 06:14 AM

Hi, it is possible to disconnect RR from COM port when i launch GPS apps for example with a skin command, becouse i want to use new GPS Sync Time function but i want to free the port when i start my gps application, becouse it is not compatible with xport splitter software
Thanks

I'm using NCK (Navigon) it search and it doesn't find the port created by Xport.... I found a program called Serial port splitter, and with that it funciotn but the program is not freeware and cost 99 UDS more then my gps

I noticed that this has native support in RR but i cant find anything on it. I use Xport right now but currently i am having problems with it resuming from hibernation

I see writing the 1.06 new version, but if download the .zip file,it's the 1.03 version....correct?

You have one link for download the v.1.06?

I don't think Curiosity update the version string when compile to exe. I had like 4 different version of xport3 and they all 1.03. The different among them is the date crated. V1.06 is dated in Aug of this year, and it is the only version release in the past year (V1.05 was in Dec 2005).
The only thing I am not 100% sure it is 1.06 is that on his site, the snapshot has an ability to turn on devices after hibernate (something like devcon script.) There are checkboxes next to usb devices. The one I download doesn't have that.

Well i did try that and it still doesn't help. I have to end task on xport and restart it to resume functionality. It seems to be trying to do something cause my location arrow/indicator in iguidance flashes grey to red every 5 seconds. Right now i will have to live without the speed indicator in road runner.
