Here you can change advanced Settings related to your GPS device such if you want to use the NMEA or Sirf protocol. Not all the Options are available with all GPS Devices, please contact your Device Manufacturer for Details. Also, not all GPS Devices store all Settings in their Memory, so make sure to apply your desired Settings each time you connect to your GPS Device.

• Use the Protocol dropdown to switch between the NMEA and Sirf Protocol. Using the Sirf Protocol has the advantage that you can activate Power Saving. The Protocol is stored within the Device, if you use other Applications with your GPS Device that do not support the Sirf Protocol, make sure you switch back to NMEA before closing the Mobile Golf Scorer™
• Check the Save Energy box to switch your Device into a Power saving mode (technically called Trickle Power Mode). This results in fewer GPS measurements taken but leads to lower energy consumption. This setting is only available when using the Sirf protocol.
• Check the Automatically reconnect to GPS box to automatically try to reconnect to the GPS device in case the connection is lost. This is helpful with Bluetooth GPS devices in case the GPS and the Pocket PC are so far away from each other that the connection is temporarily lost
• Check the Avoid static Positions box if you have the problem that your GPS Coordinates do not change even when you move a little. This Feature (technically called Static Navigation), while being desirable when navigating in a car, is extremely bad for Golf, as Golfers move slowly and want very exact Positions. This setting is only available when using the Sirf protocol. 
• Use the Set Frequency to dropdown to change the Frequency the GPS Device sends Positions to the Mobile Golf Scorer™. If your Pocket PC runs extremely slow or becomes irresponsive, your GPS Device might send too much information to handle. The default Frequency is one Message a Second.

When changing a Setting you can see the progress of the change in the Progress of Setting Box.
The Delay in Processing Box shows how many Bytes of information that the GPS Device sends are still not interpreted by the Mobile Golf Scorer™. If that value is constantly high, reduce the Frequency of the Messages.
The Message Frequency Box shows the present Frequency of Messages received from the GPS Device. Al value of 2 would be one message each 2 Seconds.
The Status Box shows the last message received from the GPS Device.
