Well. I tell you after much searching around the net, I am so glad to have across your post. I cannot tell how frustrated I was getting.

Me too, it works like a charm!

Me too, but it works like a charm so it was worth the small hassle.

GlobalSync for DG-100

Neil Wilson-Harris — Tuesday, September 9, 2008 - 17:58

USGlobalSat are soon to release their GlobalSync software for native support of the DG-100 on the Mac.

Note that GlobalSync already supports the BT-335 data logger and receiver.

GUI

Hi Abyuri,

sorry. At this time, I have no intention of developing a front-end for the DG-100 download script. The script was inteded as a "quick-fix" to tie me over until gpsbabel released a DG-100 patch, which they've now done!

I recommend you head over to their website and download the new version!

Cheers,

Kevin Jaako

GUI?

any luck you or someone to make a GUI for non-terminal-people? :-)
for now I like better to use it through parallels (I have it just for the DG-100...)

GPSBabel integration

Cameron:

Looks like GPSBabel now officially supports the DG-100 device.

Wow! About time.
Thanks for the update, looks like Mirko Parthey's script can finally be retired! GPSBabel+ is a great program, I'm glad they finally support the DG-100.

Charlie:

One bug that's still bothering me is occasional absurd elevation readings -- in the neighborhood of 429490 meters.

I noticed that as well, but I didn't address it. I wonder if its a bug in the device, or in downloading the data. I'm interested to see if GPSBabel address it in their new release.

GPSBabel now officially supports the DG-100

Looks like GPSBabel now officially supports the DG-100 device. Looks as though you still need the driver, however, could be a more streamlined method.

Thanks

Thanks very much. I was working on some cleanups to that code, but never got as far as you. The one bug that's still bothering me is occasional absurd elevation readings -- in the neighborhood of 429490 meters. Seems reasonable to assume it's some kind of underflow, but that's all I have to go on at the moment.
