Hello.  I would like to use the GPS receiver in my Flex 8600 to sync BktTimeSync.  How do I configure the Flex and BktTimeSync software?  Tnx for a great program.

Hi,
BktTimeSync is specifically designed to work with GPS receivers that communicate through a serial port. 
As I am unfamiliar with the Flex 8600, I cannot confirm whether it has the capability to output NMEA GPS data via a serial port connection.
