Logging Generic Data
GLOG logs serial data at baud rates other than 9600
PREPARATION:
- Create a “CONFIG.TXT” text file on the root folder of the memory card; use a text editor, e.g. notepad
- specify four values separated by comma as follows:
<devID>, <baud rate>, <PREFIX>, <SUFFIX>
e.g. 0,57600,ABC,DAT then hit ENTER and save the file to the disk
devID - 0:Generic, 1:Garmin (.GAR), 2:NovAtel (.GPS), 3:Hemisphere (.BIN), …
PROCEDURES:
1.
Snap the memory card into the GLOG memory card slot for
configuration
and data recording
2.
Connect the serial device to GLOG via proper serial cable
ANNUNCIATIONS:
-
10 rapid flashes on the square blue status LED: “Hello World from GLOG”
-
10 rapid blue flashes to indicate “config.txt” file found
-
Long flickers on the Rx orange LED followed by three groups of 10 rapid blue flashes: GLOG is ready to log data
LOGGING:
- Both the orange and the blue LEDs flicker continuously and irregularly to indicate data reception and card activities
- When done logging, switch the GLOG unit off and remove the memory card to download data to PC
NOTES:
-
Long orange flickers without blue flickers are indications that the serial device and GLOG are out of synch because of wrong baud rate!
-
Use NULL MODEM connector/adapter when logging data from a computer
