I am unable to connect my Blumax GPS-4043 under Mac OS 10.6.8 with either the Bluetooth or USB. Any thoughts on how to proceed?

thanks!

I think for USB you need to install the CP2102 driver from silicon labs.  https://www.google.fr/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&sqi=2&ved=0CDcQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.silabs.com%2Fproducts%2Fmcu%2FPages%2FUSBtoUARTBridgeVCPDrivers.aspx&ei=UV6LT7TBEsOv8AOwx6m3CQ&usg=AFQjCNFfR7JnjMKbeK_3qC6jIq4GHSJF8Q&sig2=EHc7WNy0sFNO8NqqWZqEAg

 

There is one other entry in the forums: http://www.bt747.org/forum/adding-possibleports-blumax-gps-4043-osx-bluetooth 

However, the bluetooth port should be found (after pairing) unless its name is different on your machine.

Thank you. Unfortunatley the new driver did not seem to do anything. I still cannot connect via either USB or Bluetooth. Something else: I tried to "populate serial port menu" but this did not do anything either.

I find this very odd as everything worked under 10.5 (Tiger) but not now.

Check if the port gets added

Check if the port gets added under '/dev' when you plug in or pair the device.

What BT747 version are you using?
