Sorry for my ignorance, but I'm an end-user, so all those terms are still a little difficult. I do know a little more than the average user, but still... Why I expect it that way, is because WM does, this way you get a virtual serial BT IN and OUT port automatically. It's like negotiating first, from both sides. If the PDA is not saying it has a serial service, the Mac will not advertise because it doesn't need to.
In this case I need to look at the settings for the connection TO, not from, the mac. In my previous mail the "In" picture. When configured, the mac should advertise the RFCOMM port, right again? As you can see in the pictures I did also configure the in-port. Now the Mac should advertise the RFCOMM port. I guess I now should set tty or cu.GPS-IN in my simulator?
