GS911 Bluetooth thoughts...

Following is excerpted from the User Manual on Hexcode's website.

"The Setup window has 4 functions:

Select connection method

This is USB by default, and we recommend that you keep it that way. The only reason to choose a COM port, would be to set up a Virtual COM Port for your Bluetooth connection. Please Note that although we give you this ability, connecting the PC-based GS-911 application to a bluetooth enabled GS-911 interface is NOT officially supported. The reason for this is simple - there are a myriad of bluetooth drivers, and most of them are very buggy, and we just don't have the spare time to support any or all of these drivers! However, if you are a power user and have the ability to set up a Virtual COM Port, then it is a formality to get it connected to the GS-911 application - just choose the correct Virtual COM Port!"

So they are not recommending (and not supporting) is creating a com port using Bluetooth in your PC to connect the PC only based application to a bluetooth enabled GS.
