- For those who's have Nuvi with "Where am I ?" Function.
- Please follow Bro zamad Step to enter hidden menu. (Refer viewtopic.php?p=30843#p30843 )
This function discovery by emmexx member of GPS Passion and post by Bro neadrenalin who's is create patchs for hidden Menu.
P/S if will fail to enter "Logging Control Menu" you need start over again Tools > Where am I? > follow below stepzamad wrote:Borrowing your pix and labelling it, the sequence is 1234. Now I don't need to press the speedometer for 10s anymore
- After you follow Bro zamad Step then you will come to Logging Control Menu here you can see 2 options.
Start Playback and Start Recording - After Click "Start Recording" the 1sec. track log will start, If you want to Stop just click the "Stop Button"
- To view track Log and Playback (Follow step 2 and click on "Start Playback")
Here you see few track logs I have saved. If you click the the Log It will enter to Play Log Menu.
Don't why I can't capture the playback screen but can refer to Bro Zamad Post photo No. 5 - You need to convert the bin files to gdb files, so you can edit in Mapsource and Post (contribute)
a. Please download "wNutrak016"" this the software to convert the Nuvi RAW log to gdb file.
b. Click "Input button" and point to the folder ("nuvi drive":\garmin\logs\xxxxxx) {xxxxxx = date}
c. Click "Output button" and point to the folder you want to save the gdb file.
d. Lastly click "Convert button" wah... lah... there have you track log in gdb file. - Open the track log you have converted and edit it.
- Before you start using Nuvi to tarck road you have to set Navigation mode to Off Road so that we can a actual road coordinate.
Tools > System > Navigation > Route Preference > Off Road - Lastly check satellite signal, I recommend GPS accuracy below 5m.
For those Nuvi "without where am I?" please refer to Bro JasonLee Post How to activate 1-sec tracklog on N2x0(W), 2x5(W), 7x0 & 7x5
How do I save road name ?
- When I tracking road, I will save road name by using "Use where am I?" to save each road name and POIs.
- The first road name I will save the full name of Jalan others in short
example :- Full name "Jalan Sri Pulai 21" others "sp 22" - After convert Nuvi Raw track log to gdb file, I open it with MapSource and Download POIs (saved when tracking) from Nuvi to edit road name and delete all unnecessary POIs (like Home POI, Garmin Dealer POI or others place POI) left what you want contribute. Please refer to How to contribute POIs & Track by using Garmin Mapsource
Special Thank you (without you guys we will not have 1 sec. Track Log in Nuvi). :-
