1. Overview
(Fig.1)
The HOLUX M-1000C Wireless GPS Logger allows users to store of up to 100,000
GPS coordinates of latitude, longitude, time, and elevation. The data can be analyzed by
uploading to a computer through its USB/Bluetooth connection. Once the coordinates
and the digital images are integrated, the tracking history and the location the images
were taken can be shared through ezTour or Google Earth.
The HOLUX M-1000C Bluetooth GPS Logger (Fig. 1) is a total solution GPS
Logger with Bluetooth, USB interface and built-in rechargeable battery for high sensitivity
to tracking signal. M-1000C design is based on Media Tek nc.(MTK) GPS
solution-MT3329 low power Architecture.
M-1000C is a dual-function GPS Logger. Not only transmit satellite information
through the PDA or Notebook by Bluetooth interfaces but also is a G-Mouse GPS Logger
through a HOLUX designed data cable (Optional cable, see chapter 6 ) to deliver
satellite signal to the device without Bluetooth interface.
M-1000C meets the requirement of field application, such as car navigation,
mapping, agriculture surveying and security use under clear view of sky. M-1000C
contacts to other device through Bluetooth interface, and built-in rechargeable Li-ion
battery to save satellite information such as the status of satellite signal, the previous
available location, date and time.

With the advanced technology, M-1000C can search up to 66 satellites
simultaneously, re-acquires satellite signals in 0.1 microsecond and updates position
data per second.
