Error downloading data from clicker BT-Q1000XT and GPSBabel
Some parts of this message have been removed.

We need your help. We use GPSBabel 0.2.22.0 and QStarz driver in order to have a command line argument to extract the records from clicker BT-Q1000XT.

I've never heard it called a clicker.
The problem that we are having is when we tried to extract the records, the program will time out and give out this error:
Command line: C:\clicker\GPSBabel\gpsbabel.exe" -p "" -w -i mtk -f com7: -o unicsv -F "C:\data.csv"
Is com7 a USB port? These models are notoriously unreliable for bulk transfer over bluetooth.
We have many clickers experiencing this error. After the error is recorded, GPSbabel quits and no data is extracted from the clicker.
If it consistently works on some units and fails in others, the flash storage in those units may be corrupt. These units use a block storage and recovering from bad sectors is very difficult.
Can other software read the affected devices? RJL

Robert,
Thank you for your reply. To answer your questions:
1. Yes, we upgraded to the latest GPSBabel software 1.4.2 but still experience the same results.
2. Com7 is a USB port. We don’t extract the data via Bluetooth.
3. The problem only occurs on some clickers, not others. We are able to extract the data using Starz Qtravel software that they provided. http://www.qstarz.com/download.php?t=3&m=BT-Q1000XT
If you clear the tracks stored on the unit, does that unit then work with GPSBabel? If so, it's probably "just" corruption in the stored data that we're not able to handle from and not a compatibility issue with that specific device.
4. The problem we have is when extracting data. If GPSBabel finds an error it will quit and not extract anything. Is there a command that we can tell it to ignore any errors?
I don't know if you've ever tried to reverse engineer a comm protocol, but getting its error handling "right" (especially since we don't have devices with those errors) is very hard.

Re: Error downloading data from clicker BT-Q1000XT and GPSBabel
Hi Robert, German:
This is Star.
Have any new findings or conclusions for this issue until now?
Same issue was happened in my site.
These days I wanna export GPS data from BT-Q1000XT but always getting CRC errors by GPSBabel software. But those GPS data can be shown well by its product software "QTravel". That is, the raw data should not be corrupted.
Any kindly replies are the most appreciated! THX!
GPSBabel version: 1.4.2
C:\Program Files\GPSBabel>gpsbabel.exe -w -i mtk -f com18: -o unicsv -F data.csv
4162: Bad CRC aa != 51 (pos 0x0a3104) 4163: Bad CRC 01 != 6d (pos 0x0a3281) 4164: Bad CRC 15 != 82 (pos 0x0a33fe) 4165: Bad CRC c5 != 6d (pos 0x0a357b) 4166: Bad CRC 81 != 16 (pos 0x0a36f8)

Real-Time with CSV to show only most current point
Some parts of this message have been removed.
Learn more about Nabble's security policy.
Hello all,
I’m trying to do real-time tracking to a csv file. I’m able to get it to work but what I’d like is for the most current location to overwrite the previous
so that my file contains only the most recent point (similar to what is done with real-time to a KML file). Is there an option I can set to do this?
Thanks,
Chris

Not really. To get a similar effect, let GPSBabel output to a piple (-F -) and let your program read from the pipe.

Robert,
I’m not sure how to do that. This is the command I’m sending to GPSBabel from my C# application (It works when I have an output file specified):
"-T -i nmea -f com1 -o csv -F -"
From what I’ve Googled I think I need to do a ReadToEnd on the Process object that I’m using to run GPSBabel but that just returns a blank string. Any hints?
Or is there any example code out there?
Your help is greatly appreciated!

That's correct from our side. There's definitely code in xcsv.c to make this work, but it's worth disclaiming that this is probably not well exercised as it's not really what we do.

I don't program in C#. Perhaps someone else out there can help you with that. Based solely on the name of the method, that's probably wrong; you don't want to read until the pipe is closed; you want to read individual lines as they become available. But that's better answered by someone that actually knows C#.

Gpsbabel appears in my Task Manager processes as running and I don’t think it is writing a file anywhere so I’m thinking that it is doing what it is suppose
to do but I’m missing one step of the process to grab that info that’s being piped. Thanks for the advice and I’ll hold out to see if anyone else out there has any further clues.

Not really. To get a similar effect, let GPSBabel output to a piple (-F -) and let your program read from the pipe.

I’m reading through the Real-time documentation:
gpsbabel -T -i garmin -f usb: -o kml -F xxx.kml
Will read the USB-connected Garmin and rewrite 'xxx.kml' atomically, suitable for a self-refreshing network link in Google Earth.
I run this: gpsbabel –T –I nmea –f com1 –o kml –F d:\gistemp\test.kml
When running this from a command prompt it appends to the KML file. Shouldn’t it be overwriting the KML with only the most current point?
Also, If doing NMEA real-time to a KML file, does the KML output contain all NMEA information by default? I see that there is a table in the KML with a few
things – Lat, Long, Alt, Speed, Heading, Time. Or is the only way to get all NMEA information by setting my output to be NMEA format?

That's correct from our side. There's definitely code in xcsv.c to make this work, but it's worth disclaiming that this is probably not well exercised as it's not really what we do.
From
what I’ve Googled I think I need to do a ReadToEnd on the Process object that I’m using to run GPSBabel but that just returns a blank string. Any hints? Or is there any example code out there?
I don't program in C#. Perhaps someone else out there can help you with that. Based solely on the name of the method, that's probably wrong; you don't want to read until the pipe is closed; you want to read individual lines as they become
available. But that's better answered by someone that actually knows C#.
Your help is greatly appreciated!

Actually, that command should be giving you a syntax error.
I won't have time to confirm what you're describing until after the holidays, but if it's true, that's a bug.

No, it doesn't make sense to present satellite position and all the other stuff in NMEA.

Re: Real-Time with CSV to show only most current point
Some parts of this message have been removed.

It was suppose to be a lower case I ----
gpsbabel –T –i nmea –f com1 –o kml –F d:\gistemp\test.kml
Outlook likes to correct things.
Looks like I might need to focus on piping the real-time strings directly to my program so that I can capture the satellite and accuracy information. My folks
dig that sort of thing.
One more thing, if I have a garmin unit in garmin mode and do something like this:
gpsbabel –T –i garmin –f com1 –o nmea –F d:\gistemp\nmea.txt
What is happening? It appears to be spitting out NMEA strings so is it putting my GPS into NMEA mode?
GPS Babel is invaluable to me and I greatly appreciate your work.
Thanks!

Re: Real-Time with CSV to show only most current point
Looks like I might need to focus on piping the real-time strings directly to my program so that I can capture the satellite and accuracy information. My folks
dig that sort of thing.
Your folks are then likely to be disappointed in GPSBabel for this sort of thing. It really is an oddity to us. It was funded by Google for realtime tracking in Earth for the sole purpose of putting a car and a breadcrumb on a map. (That model made some sense in 2006, but with smart phones it really doesn't now.) We really don't try to be a full Garmin PVT->NMEA converter or Delorme->PVT converter, for example. We use the minimum to put a picture on a moving map. Things like VTG, GSA, and GSV data just aren't something we try to preserve.
It sounds like tools like gpsd or gpsgate are closer to what you're looking for.
One more thing, if I have a garmin unit in garmin mode and do something like this:
gpsbabel –T –i garmin –f com1 –o nmea –F d:\gistemp\nmea.txt
What is happening? It appears to be spitting out NMEA strings so is it putting my GPS into NMEA mode?
No. It's reading Garmin's PVT protocol. We don't decode it all, only the part we care about (lat, lon, alt, course, speed, time, fix) and then we store that in an internal format. We then write NMEA from that format. We don't process almanac, constellation, strength of relative SV or other things that it sounds like you care about.
Since all the serial Garmins will do NMEA (which isn't true with the USB models) and you want NMEA, why involve GPSBabel in this at all?
GPS Babel is invaluable to me and I greatly appreciate your work.
Thanks!
