TGC/Protee - GSX Settings and Bluetooth adapter

[Bubba22]

Settings for GSX when used with TGC:

Set all carry, back spin, and side spin settings to default of zero.
Putting speed = (set to what feels right for your turf).
Putting forgiveness set to 2.
All penalty settings must be at default of zero


Bluetooth adapters working:
Asus USB-BT400 Bluetooth 4.0
4Cirago Bluetooth 4.0 BTA8000 with Extended Range(EDR)

If you're having Bluetooth connection issues, definitely try a different brand Bluetooth adapter. If you're using the metal protective cage, try connecting without the GC2 being in the cage. Also, don't just plug the adapter in the back of the computer. Use a 6-15 foot USB extension cable to attach the Bluetooth adapter. This will put it out in the open an allow for a better signal.

GC2 Bluetooth Adapter Code: 0000

Thank you! I wish I was a one handicap!

The one handicaps all wish they were plus 4.. it never ends!!!!

GSX is there. Follow instructions posted here to the exact point. It works great.

No... I used the same install of TGC. If you already have the TGC license, just send ProTee your machine ID and ask for the ProTee interface license, and a new TGC license for GSX. They'll take care of you.

Tips for getting your initial GSX connection. I think mthunt had mentioned it before in this thread somewhere but I wanted to confirm my experience as I think it will help others.

These tips are for AFTER you have had it working previously but the next time the input is disconnected.

1) If your GC2 has been working over bluetooth, do not change any setting if the input is disconnected.
2) Uncheck the "on" button in GSX
3) Hit a ball so your results are outputted on your GC2.
4) Turn the slider back to on in GSX.
5) If it doesn't connect, repeat steps 2-4

Really, you don't want to mess with the settings if you have previously had a successful connection. Try those steps and it has worked every time for me since. The most I have had to repeat steps 2-4 is twice.

i have a question about my gsx setting ...i have everything set to zero except putting speed and forgiveness ...the one thing ive noticed is green side bunkers have a penalty while i play TGC....ea.if i have a 25yd bunker shot and want to land it 20yds ...i need to register a 30yd shot on my GC2 and the in game carry will be 20yds ..there seems to be a 50% penalty for greenside bunkers...is this the norm or am i screwing something up......again...

[mthunt]

It's the norm. TGC penalities are listed in the TGC forum.

ok thanks..ill have to find them ..the green side was the one i really noticed..only had my GC2 for a few weeks...my first week playing in the online tourney and didn't want to mess anything up

Bunkers under 40 yards have a 40% penalty. Heavy rough is around 1 club. Fairway bunkers and light rough is 1/2 a club. All estimates.

I had an issue this weekend where my GSX would not connect. Worked completely fine on Friday and then Saturday just would not work. I went through the setup steps and confirmed ports. I also removed the GC2 from the BT devices. I then went through the setup process again and the BT found the the GC2 and added it back in, but it still would not connect in GSX. I then tried to find other BT devices and it found my phone no problem. I wanted to confirm that my GC2 was sending data so I used the foresight app on my phone and that was working. At this point I was stuck so reached out to others and protee and one suggestion was to try a new BT adapter. I bought a new BT adapter, deleted the old BT settings from the computer, installed the new one and went through the setup process again and sure enough, it connected right away.

Long story short, even though the BT adapter appeared to be working and would find devices, it would not transmit the data.

In my experience deleting the GC2 and adding it again usually fixes this.

Hello I have a gc2, recently upgraded from skytrak. What is everyone using for putting forgiveness setting? Is 1 mean more forgiveness? Meaning it’s like straight putt on the skytrak settings? And do I need to change the penalty system settings, or leave them at 0?

[mthunt]

For the gc2 setting to 2 is good for putting
