Title: Bluetooth GPS
#2
Check this page for connecting a GPS to GPSNavX

http://www.gpsnavx.com/help/connectinggps.htm

There's a link for connecting a BT GPS to the Mac

http://www.gpsnavx.com/pdf/TN-206OSX.pdf

Though it doesn't specify a Holux GPS but it should work the same way!

Sometimes you are asked a code which is most times either 0000 (4x Zero) or 1234. Check you Holux manual.

In GPSNavX /MacENC select

GPS -> Connect

Click on Settings: in TYPE select OTHER
in PORT select something /dev/cu.BT-GPS-XXXXX
(this one depends on what BT GPS you have connected)
in RATE select 4800 baud

Be sure to have your BT-GPS switched on, or the BT port isn't shown sometimes.

A friend of mine had a HOLUX GPS connected to GPSNavX without a problem.
