You're right.  I blame my own incompetence.  I bozoed the doc.  It was my
intent to fix a bad link and add a new GPS when I wound up just vaporizing
that model.

Google "GPSBabel Sony GPS-CS1" and you'll find many people using that
combination.

It's one of the models we list at
http://www.gpsbabel.org/htmldoc-development/fmt_nmea.html   ISTR that they
do something weird in NMEA and there's special code in there for them.

Re: AutoRoute .AXE files

Robert Lipe — 2012-05-21T01:33:19



I'm not working on it and no of nobody else, but that's not to say that
someone might not fund/contribute it tonight.

We've had older versions of .axe/.est in
GPSBabel<http://www.gpsbabel.org/htmldoc-development/fmt_msroute.html>before.
 It was very frail as it was a crazy compilcated,
reverse-engineered format.   Once Microsoft adopted open formats and broke
our .axe reader again, nobody was terribly motivated to work on the latter
again.

My guess is that you'd probably find faster joy in taking the GPX export
and manually marking it up with a program like EasyGPS than waiting for us
to update our .axe reader.

Sorry for the late answer.

To the best of my (very limited) knowledge, there is no other

Since I know close to nothing about windows, I had a look at another 
free software project, written for windows, that drives that device.
Looking at the source code (and at the sourcecode of a different product 
that it uses), it seems that it justs sets the speed to 230400 instead 
of using any constant like CBR_115200.

Now, looking again at the web page you gave us 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa363214(v=vs.85).aspx 
I can read: "This member can be an actual baud rate value, or one of

Hence, I think you could add something like
  case 230400:
    return br;
to your big switch, or perhaps even
  default:
    return br;

You've chosen CSV as documented at

looks nothing like that.

If you have control over the file format, you could tweak the headers to
better trigger our unicsv reader described at

immutable, you may hav eto write your own style format or implement a

You didn't say you were using Linux, but you seem to be.

It may have improved since I last looked, but the Garmin USB driver in the
kernel was a longstanding source of problems for lots of users.   Removing
it and using our direct USB support was always my prescription, but you're
going to need to ask your OS Vendor for help.

Connecting the 62s in spanner mode enables me to get real time position information on my desktop, but there is some issue with the notebook. Could it be related to underpowered usb ports? 


running the command

sudo gpsbabel -T -i garmin -f /dev/ttyUSB0 


I usually get the following error:

[ERROR] GPS_Packet_Read: Timeout. No data received.
Garmin: Can't init /dev/ttyUSB0

however, the garmin is recognized as being a usb device.

Great timing.  I just did something very similar and committed this minutes
ago as revision 4176.   I've added your test case in 4177 and,
unfortunately, they fail on my Mac.  (64-bit programs are the norm on Macs
these days.   The original failed on a 64-bit Mac build identically for me
as it did for Andrew.)

Can you please update and see if I've just missed a patch somewhere?

Note that I busted skytrak out of the classic-4 and into a test of its own
so you can run it in isolation.  I'm doing that for pretty much any format
I have to touch non-trivially these days.

Re: GPSBabel error while trying to connect to DG-200

Robert Lipe — 2012-05-14T13:31:35


Bummer.  I've added the original author of the DG-200 support.

230Kbps is indeed an uncommon speed.   The original UARTS on the original
PCs just plain couldn't do it, but it's not that hard on modern hardware.
My read of the Windows serial doc says that speed isn't supported, probably
owing to Windows decisions that are stuck in the 80's.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa363214(v=vs.85).aspx
(It looks like they just made up bit rates above 115.2K; nobody used clock
rates like that on commodity UARTs.)


However, it seems unlikely that DG would build a device that doesn't work
on Windows (that never happens...it's usually quite the opposite) so either
our decision to drive the device only at 230K is bad or gbser_win.c

Nicolas, what do you think?

Hello,
I have a Brauniger IQ One+ and I want to be able to download the barograph on my linux machine.
After a quick inspection of the gpsbabel source code I saw that the baroiq feature is somehow unfinished/not working.
Can anybody tell me what is the state of this feature?

I am prepared to contribute to the project if possible.

I was able to download both the flight memory and device configuration memory from my vario to the computer (using the java serial port API) and did some reverse engineering on it.
Any help regarding the format of the memory would be appreciated.

Re: GPX conversion problem

Pewe — 2012-05-13T15:14:58

Robert,

Thanks for offering to include the style, but it is not quite as simple 
as that - I'll explain.

My wife and I have taken to walking quite a lot since we semi-retired 
last year.

Whilst out walking I tend to take my camera and snap away.

I have a terrible memory and am always forgetting where I was when I 
took the pictures.

As my camera does not have built in GPS, I considered getting a GPS 
tracker so I could record locations/times whilst out walking and taking 
photographs - then on returning home I could use Geosetter to Geotag the 
photographs.

Then I thought about using my phone instead as it is an HTC with built 
in GPS, so I started to search for some software to use on the phone.

In doing so I came across a program called 'Trackme'. As this was 
originally designed to run on a phone with Windows Mobile 5/6 on it, and 
that's what I have, I decided to try it.

It works very well for tracking, but the problem is that it stores the 
data on the phone in a SQL format .sdf file, and then w

Thanks for your input Gary.

I have however managed to create a .style to meet my needs, created a 
'script' so GPSbabel generates the file with the information I need and 
have even created a batch file and put a shortcut on my desktop so I 
just drag and drop my csv files on it to create the .gpx file with the 
same name.

I'm sure as I investigate the options of the tracker software and its 
generated output I'll have some other questions - but here's one for 
starters to anyone who cares to answer.

I see in the documentation there is an option for GPSBabel to create an 
.sdf file.

Would that be a SQL .sdf or something else.

If it is a SQL file, does this mean that GPSBabel can work with SQL, and 
if so, can it read content of a SQL file to be used like the csv - or is 
that just wishful thinking.

Thanks again.
