GPS Operation 57
Connection Diagram
In order for GPS Builder to detect latitude and longitude, a GPS sensor must be connected to a serial
port. Below is a connection diagram for the GPS Kit that can be purchased from Alcorn McBride Inc.
Program Operation
The following is a step-by-step guide on how to use GPS Builder to make a playlist for the
AM-4 operating in GPS Mode. Basically what we’re going to do is make a “boilerplate”
playlist and then enter GPS points afterwards.
Step 1:
Click on the little “down” arrow in the first box under the Command column. Select
a command. This is usually a Set Background command if you want a background
track to play between triggers. If you don’t want a background track select a Play
command.
Step 2:
Specify the sound number or file name in the Data1 column. If you selected a
background track in Step 2, select the fade-in time in the Data2 column.
Step 3:
Select an initial Tolerance by clicking on the “…” next to the Tolerance box. This
number will normally depend on how fast the vehicle is traveling for the first trigger.
Step 4:
Enter subsequent commands on the following rows until you’ve completed your
“tour.” Each command can be any of the commands listed in the pull-down menu
available in the Commands column. Also fill in the LCD display for each trigger.
Note: Only MP3 files
can be used for GPS
operation.
Step 5:
Once all of the commands have been entered, save you file by clicking on File…Save
As… , giving it a name, and clicking OK.
