II. iGPS-BT II Setup (see walkthrough guides at the end of this section)
1. The iGPS-BT II will need to be charged for two to three hours before initial
use.
2. Turn on the iGPS-BT II. The status indicator will blink as it searches for a
Bluetooth connection.
3. Launch the Bluetooth configuration software on your mobile device. (This
should be provided by the manufacturer of your Bluetooth device)
4. Have the Bluetooth configuration software search for any Bluetooth
devices present. It should detect the iGPS-BT II and list it as an available
device (a “Pharos BT GPS II” icon should be displayed).
5. Select the “Pharos BT GPS II” device. Depending on your Bluetooth
software, this should bring up a screen that will ask for a PIN Code or
Security PIN. Enter the following PIN code:

(Please memorize this code for future use)
6. After the PIN number is entered, a connection between your mobile device
and the iGPS-BT II should be established. The blue LED on the iGPS-BT
II dock will change from blinking to a steady glow.
7. Once a connection is established, check the properties of the iGPS-BT II
in the Bluetooth configuration software and make a note as to which
number COM port is assigned to it. The navigation software that will be
used will require this COM port number. Or check the COM port setting
for your Pocket PC in the Quick Start Guide
.

Hints & Tips
• GPS receiver must have a direct view to the sky. GPS receiver does
not work well indoors.
• If possible, make sure the GPS is stationary when getting the initial
satellite position lock. Allow 1-2 minutes at initial start-up for the GPS
receiver to acquire a satellite lock for tracking.

in the navigation software being used to ensure proper functioning of
the GPS system.
