http://www.gisteq.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=470 by Mleo on Sat Nov 08, 2008 8:28 pm Tagging is not quite what one might expect. Tagging on the GiSTEQ GPS is not a data point generating operation. Rather, whenever it is locked to the satellites the GiSTEQ GPS device is recording points at the user selected interval, no matter the tagging mode, and tagging simply adds some additional information (the tag) to the current point(s). If the device is in waypoint tagging mode: when button 1 is pressed and held the next point recorded will be tagged with the value 254. If the device is in trip tagging mode: when button 1 is pressed and held to activate trip tagging operation, all points from then on will be tagged with the value X, until button 1 is again pressed and held to de-activate trip tagging operation. X is a value in the range 101 and up. It increases in value by one each time trip tagging operation is activated. Additionally, the first point recorded after either power-on or wake-up from sleep is tagged with the value 99. The tag values are part of the raw data that is downloaded from the device. It is up to the software that processes this downloaded raw data to interpret the tag attached to recorded points. A point with a tag of 254 can be used to create a waypoint. A point with a tag of 99 can be used to break up the data into separate tracks. Points with a common tag value in the range 101 and up can be used to highlight a (portion of) a track in some fashion. The perl script iTU4l.pl and its companion sr2x.pl is the only GPS software that I am aware of that fully exposes this tagging data. Apparently tagging was a feature of the original Wonde Proud GPS device on which the GiSTEQ is based but GiSTEQ chose to limit the PhotoTrackr software to recognizing only waypoint records. Disclaimer: the above is based on my observations and I am sure it is incomplete and may be misinformed. Perhaps others can fill in some more information. To answer the original questions: 1) Yes, logging is the same as regular default mode. No, it does not record start and stop time but rather tags all the points in the "trip". And no, recording continues even after the trip end button is hit - it is just the tagging of points that stops. 2) No, waypoint tagging does not exactly record the spot you are in. Rather it tags the next point the device records to note that point as a special point - i.e., a waypoint. Curiously, this scheme of tagging points can result is some error in the resultant waypoint if you are moving and the recording interval is infrequent. In an extream example, if say points are recorded every minute and you press the button for a waypoint while traveling in a car at 60 miles per hour (a mile a minute), then that waypoint may be recorded up to a minute after you press the button resulting of an error of up to one mile for the waypoint. Additionally, one cannot record more than one waypoint per recording interval. Also, the above discussion does not address behavior when the device is in the Recording Mode of "By Distance" rather than "By time". I have no experience with that mode.

http://www.gisteq.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=58 Button and light overview by MikeB on Fri Aug 03, 2007 10:48 pm Summary of button and lights on the bluetooth logger. The current documentation does not actually describe very well what button does what, and on my first trip, it was hit or miss to figure out what was happening. (Gisteq, an overview like this would be really useful in the documentation). Here are the references I am aware of, and the button presses I have worked out or read about. Post any other discoveries as replies to this thread Power / sound / Lights: Power on / off: press and hold middle button for approx 1 sec Volume up: press left button (and expect to hear tone) Volume down: press right button (and hear tone until sound is off - when you will then hear nothing) Stealth mode: Press left and right button (approx 3 secs?) to disable all lights. Same again to enable again. When disabled, it is hard to figure out whether it is On or Off Other: Speak the time: Press and hold left and middle button for approx two seconds. Note the time is UTC from GPS with whatever local time offset your PC had at the last sync with it. Disable /enable bluetooth: Press and hold middle button for approx 1-2 seconds Trip / Waypoint Tagging: Press and hold (how long?) left button to tag a waypoint / trip (depends on how your unit is setup. See VI, Hardware in Gisteq docs) Lights overview: Normal operation: Expect red, green, and blue lights to be flashing like a mini christmas tree Red light flashing:- GPS signal being received (when no fix, this is off) Green light flashing - power is on Blue light flashing - bluetooth active Stealth Mode: Green power light flashes briefly on power on and power off and no other lights show You can only work whether it is on or off by the voice announcements about positioning and lock. If volume is off, it is easy not to be sure about whether it is on or off. c) Error mode In some cases of internal firmware error, the following light sequence may show. 2 x 4 red light flashes, then 1 x green, 1 x blue (then repeat). Unit did not log or connect to PC. To fix, reset (remove then reinsert battery). What is my unit going to say to me? Power on: "Satellites Positioning" (If volume not at 0) Satellite lock "Satellite Fix" [ you hear this only on first lock, and not thereafter if you go in and out of satellite coverage] Low battery: "Battery Low" [I haven't heard this, the Xaiox manual says this happens] Time (left & mid buttons): "X X X X" e.g. " 2 2 3 5" [for 22:35 as I write this] References: (thanks to someone from another post for #2) 1) Gisteq Photo Tracker User Manual, V1.4 (comes with Bluetooth phototracker). 2) This seems to be the original hardware - I think Gisteq's firmware mods have changed some things slightly, but it is similiar: http://www.xaiox.com/download/xiox_itracku_nemerix_english.pdf See Page #5 Updates: 8-9 corrected bluetooth button to be middle button press 8-20 added error light sequence Last edited by MikeB on Mon Aug 20, 2007 7:46 pm, edited 2 times in total. MikeB Posts: 27 Joined: Tue Jun 26, 2007 9:52 pm _____________________________________________________ A few corrections based on a CD-110BT (you should propably say that somewhere). -Switching Bluetooth on and off just requires a brief press of the middle button, not 1-2 seconds which will turn the unit on or off. -The unit will also announce "Bluetooth on" and "Bluetooth off" if sound is enabled when you switch Bluetooth on/off. ______________________________________________________ I've had the Low Battery warning. Really useful as it said 'Low Battery' and then switched itself off. An earlier warning would have been useful. __________________________________________________ |

http://www.gisteq.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=445 I have a CD-110BT (with the MTK GPS chip and firmware v4.2). Button 3 makes no sound when you press and hold the button, unless you set the Tagging Mode to User Adjustable in Settings. If User Adjustable is set, you will hear one of two sounds when you press and hold button 3: A simple long tone: Waypoint tagging mode is now enabled. A musical tinkly sound: Trip tagging mode is now enabled. Depending on the mode chosen via button 3, pressing and holding button 1 will: Tag a waypoint (the current location is recorded in memory with a tag). Enable Tag a trip (all new locations will be recorded in memory with a unique tag). Disable Tag a trip (if Tag a trip is currently enabled). You will get an "Uh Oh" sound for the Disable Tag a trip, and a "Ta Da" sound for the other two. Hope this helps. The results may be different for other firmware and other models. And you may not agree with my description of the sounds. YMMV. |

Selon Gisteq Hello, |
| Antenne extérieure |

http://www.gisteq.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=389 Yup. Gisteq support replied with basically the same point: if there is no connector for an external antenna then it's the MTK version. But they ought to update the darn manual so that it doesn't still describe the old hardware. Not to mention the inconsistent model numbers, etc. But for the moment I'm happy. Still trying to figure out all the quirky lights, though. |

http://www.gisteq.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=446 The PhotoTrackr is advertised to be able to store about 250000 points. 4MB flash memory for data logging, with 16 bytes binary data per record that stores up to 250K You can store 250.000 points. When you store every 15 sec. a point, than you can 250.000 * 15 = 3.750.000 sec. store your position. That is more than 43 day's (24 hours a day) I have read somwhere that, when the memorie is full, it begins to write over from the begin.

| I had the same questions when I first used my tracker. Here is what I do and it works ok. Use a text reader, like notepad. make one long document by sequentially adding the log files. Each log file has a "-pp" at the beginnng. Use the find and replace funcion of the program and remove all "-99" and replace it with "---". Leave the first "-99" at the beginning of the file. After the software removes all the extra "-99", rename the file and use that with the trackr software. This gives me a single track for the entire journey. I hope this helps. |

http://www.gisteq.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=264 Re: Import/Convert files by justinribeiro on Mon Jun 30, 2008 12:28 am You might try GPSBabel: http://www.gpsbabel.org/ It will convert GPX to NEMA, but you have to use the gistek option as noted on the following linked page: http://www.gpsbabel.org/htmldoc-development/fmt_nmea.html The reason according to the folks there is because "the logging format used by the Gisteq hardware is very close to NMEA format, but with a few small quirks." There was a thread on the GPSBabel mailing list a while back that this option will create the proper *.GPS file for use importing into PhotoTrackr. Hope you find this helpful and does what you're looking for. Cheers, Justin |

Satellite number is one of the information we intentionally left out while recording the data in each binary record - we simply put "8" on all NMEA data when exporting from our binary record to NMEA. |
