Well, except that I'd forgotten to activate mine after a reset, and it worked fine, which is why I asked the question. <smile>

Hi,It is only necessary if the GPS program can't find the receiver. Some resets keep the receiver paired, but not active. When you call a business and you are on hold, that is the same as having the device and the receiver paired. When they take you off hold and actually talk to you, that is the same as activating the receiver.If they cut you off, that is the same as removing the pairing.So, if the receiver is paired but not active, you have it on hold and it cannot talk to the device. Activating just allows information to flow back to the device. That is the analogy I use to make sense of all of it anyway. I hope that helps.Richard -----Original Message-----From: gps-talkusers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:gps-talkusers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Peggy KernSent: Tuesday, August 04, 2009 9:14 PM To: gps-talkusers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxSubject: [gps-talkusers] Is it necessary to activate the bluetooth receiver?Hi, all. Every time I've had to do a reset, just out of habit I've gone in and activated my Holux receiver. But this evening I forgot to activate it after a reset, and it worked just fine. So what does activating do, and is it necessary?Peggy http://kernsac.livejournal.com http://facebook.com/kernsac__________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4306 (20090804) __________The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.comTo change your email settings (unsubscribe, digest only, or vacation mode):http://senderogroup.com/email.htmAdditionally, to unsubscribe send an email to gps-talkusers-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with “unsubscribe†in the Subject.__________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4307 (20090805) __________The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com__________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4307 (20090805) __________The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com__________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4307 (20090805) __________The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.comTo change your email settings (unsubscribe, digest only, or vacation mode):http://senderogroup.com/email.htmAdditionally, to unsubscribe send an email to gps-talkusers-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with “unsubscribe” in the Subject.__________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4307 (20090805) __________The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com
