Hello,
I have noticed the same issue yesterday with 4.2. I left the P K running the
g p s software and shut off the m 1000 receiver and went in a building for
about 1/2 hour. Then I came outside and turned on my m 1000 and even waited
a few seconds and then did a r+backspace to re connect to the software. I
tried this 8 to 10 times and then finely exited out of g p s and re
activated the g p s program and got connected.
Thus I tried this again in another building the same afternoon and had the
same issue.
In v. 4.0 and with patches did not experience this issue.

Hi, all. I'm looking through the documentation to see if I can find an
answer to this, but so far I haven't found it, so I thought I'd ask on the
list.
With 4.1, I would turn on my Holux 1000, then enter GPS. If it didn't
recognize that a receiver was on, I'd hit c, and it would try to connect,
and would be successful. Often when I entered GPS, it would find the
receiver right away.
With 4.2, it almost never seems to realize the receiver is on, so I hit c
and it tries to connect, then tells me again the receiver isn't on. So I
have to exit GPS, turn off the Holux for a few seconds, turn it back on,
then go back into GPS, and everything is fine. I'm using speech on request,
so maybe I need to turn speech on to hear if it's telling me to do something
I don't know about. But although the changes document says the software is
smarter about recognizing a bluetooth receiver, mine seems to be dumber. Or
maybe it's the operator who's dumber? <sigh> Can anyone tell me what I'm
missing here? And I promise I'll keep reading, because it's probably
documented somewhere and I just haven't found it. But we're going out for a
walk soon, and I don't want to have to fiddle with things for a while before
heading out. <grin>
