12.4. IGC settings

Here preferences can be specified for the IGC mode. These texts are included in the IGC file
from the GPS-Logger 2.
When evaluating the data in the online contest matching fields can thus be filled
automatically.

12.5. Live Access to the GPS-Logger 2

If the GPS-Logger 2 is connected to the USB interface on the PC, the terminal function of
our software can access the GPS-Logger 2 directly. The display is the same as with the live
operation of the UniDisplay. See also chapter 8.

The GPS-Logger 2 must be supplied with external power for connection to the PC!
For example, directly to a 4 cell Receiver battery.
