Orux has problems with external bluettoth GPS Empty Orux has problems with external bluettoth GPS

Post  Wolf359 Mon Aug 26, 2013 6:40 pm

I have an android handy "Samsung Galaxy Ace 2". If I use orux with the intern GPS I can see the speed i drive with the car.
If I change to the external bluetooth GPS all functions work but the speed is always 0 km/h.
I have the following very good external GPS Receiver: http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B003YCZINA/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I thought the functions must be the same if I use the internal or external GPS.
Has anyone similar problems with external bluetooth GPS?

Thank you for your information.
Yes it is a MTK2 Chipset.
Where can I activate NMEA? I dont understand this shortcut. The settings in Android OR Settings in Orux?
What is BT474?

hmm.. the link is gone..

BT474

No need to active NMEA, without you cannot use your device.
It's the communication protocol and defines the format of the possible informations.
Detailed information you will find on kowoma
No GPS device with log all possible sentences, only a part of them.
But sometimes just the sentences needed by a special program are not there.
Or the vendor has cut alot of them due to marketing strategy.

BT747 will  -> help you to trim <-  your device for logging all data you need.

Thank you for your help.
I have two questions more:

Is BT474 for Android?

Is BT474 a interface between the GPS Device and Orux   (GPS => BT474 => Orux)
OR is it a full  navigation software instead of orux?

Thank you for your help and sorry for the simply questions
Wolfgang.

Did you click the links? That should give the answer

Origianally BT474 is a configuration software for Bluetooth version of i-blue 474 (MTK2), but meanwhile it runs nearly every MTK device.
Please refer to the linked manual

Yes I followed the link, but I understand nothing.
But now I understand.
With BT474 I can configure my external GPS Device.
Thank you for your help.
