Title: gps date & time
Post by: Seight-v8 on September 30, 2011, 12:38:19 PM
hello all,

any chance we can have gps date & time to be shown when i load a saved log, i know its comes out of the gps receiver, and must be saved in the log file along with gps position, but no date & times are shown.

Unless someone has already figured this out and can help.

at the moment the only way i can find out what date my logs where taken is when they are saved, and this isnt always the date of the actual run....just gets confusing to remember the date/time of each log file.

cheers

so i've found that you can use the custom boxes under the GPS section to display date & time....wow its already there....just need to make it work....

Got the date working, from the help files in vemstune.....struggling with the date as i need to get the expression right for it to work.....

date is something like "GPS Date: %d-%d-%d", gpsDateY, gpsDateM, gpsDateD", so time must be something similair to make it work.....

keep me busy for a while...

well for those that might want to know how to do this.

for date its ""GPS Date: %d-%02d-%02d", gpsDateD, gpsDateM, gpsDateY + 2000

for time its "GPS Time: %02d:%02d:%02d", gpsTimeH, gpsTimeM, gpsTimeS

for speed in mph its "GPS Speed (mph) = %0.1f", gpsSpeed * 0.621

might save someone else the time one day.
