GLOG V2 Quick Guide 7
Logging Garmin Data
PREPARATION:
- Garmin receiver logging operate at 9600 baud
- Receiver interface has to be set to ‘Garmin’ under the receiver ‘system’ sub-menu
- Do not log data before the receiver has already acquired at least 4 satellites and is in ‘navigation’ mode
- Turn the Garmin receiver ON first and wait until a valid 3D position is available
PROCEDURES:
1. Snap a fresh memory card into the GLOG memory card slot for data recording
2. Connect the Garmin receiver to GLOG via the Garmin-provided cable
3. Switch GLOG ON by pushing the power button down; the round red LED should shine
ANNUNCIATIONS:
- 20 rapid flashes on the square blue status LED: “Hello World from GLOG”
- Few flickers on the green LED followed by few flickers on the orange LED, then 10 rapid flashes on the blue LED: GLOG
interrogating the serial device to see if it is a Garmin receiver
- More flickers on the green LED followed by flickers on the orange LED, then 10 rapid blue flashes: GLOG requesting
information/logs from the receiver
- Long flickers on the orange LED followed by three groups of 10 rapid blue flashes: Garmin receiver acknowledges raw log
requests; GLOG is ready to log raw data
LOGGING:
- Once the receiver acknowledges raw data requests, GLOG enters into logging mode
- Both the orange and the blue LEDs flicker continuously and irregularly to indicate data reception and disk activities
- When done logging, switch the GLOG unit off and remove the memory card to download the data onto your PC!
NOTE: Logged data is stored in chronologically numbered files!
