Default WinPilot ADV comm port setting

The latest version of WinPilot (4.61) does not seem to have the ability to
set the comm port for the GPS. (Mine is a NavMan 4400 wireless (Bluetooth).)
Has anyone else had experience with this?

Someone, somewhere said to go to Menu / Comm port, but I can only get a menu
in WinPilot Simulator, and it has no comm port setting anywhere, and when I
try to run WinPilot ADV, the screen says "Waiting for GPS data..." with no
access to any menu except "Quit WinPilot and return to WinCE?" ...

I'm running 4.61 and it has a com port menu item.

Start Simulator. Select menu. If com port isn't in the menu then select
edit and assign it to one of the buttons.

I have a Navman jacket and have found the bundled road nav software alters
the NMEA settings. If when you start win pilot you get no GPS altitude then
contact me.
