Hi Rene,

I'm sorry, but I don't have any answers for you. I have heard that using
PocketDOS for data transfers may not work with older, slower Pocket PCs but
I don't know any more than that.

If data transfer is causing over-run errors, then a slower Baud rate
should help. As the volume of data is not that high the overhead in
using a slower connection is not that great.

The baud rate must be set as needed by the flight recorder. Since NMEA data
is sent at 4800 baud most flight recorders transfer all data at that rate.
However, I think some change the baud rate to a higher one for flight log
downloads. I'm not sure how to change the baud rate in PocketDOS.

Many IGC-Approved Flight Recorders allow you the set the baud rate to a
speed other than the default (Volkslogger, Filser, Colibri, SDI and LX
for example). The default speed is not the same for all recorders.

Having changed the speed in the recorder, you must change the speed in
the program. This is done with a parameter when calling the DATA-???.EXE
DOS program. The usual form is -b4800 for 4800 baud etc.


Also, I think there have been improvements to PocketDOS since it was first
introduced. Make certain you are using the latest version.

Thanks,
