1. Introduction
The GPS-Logger 2 is a complete GPS system that was specifically developed for the needs
of model construction field.
It is extremely small and light, but has outstanding features and possibilities.
With up to 10 Hz sampling rate and the micro-SD memory card almost unlimited recordings
with high resolution and detail are possible.
Telemetry via 2.4 GHz systems with a return channel is now a firm component of the GPS-
Logger and fully integrated.
In line with our philosophy to support as many systems as possible, the
GPS-Logger
2 also
works via the telemetry:
Jeti Duplex EX
Multiplex M-Link
Graupner/SJ HoTT
Robbe/Futaba FASSTest S.BUS2
JR DMSS
FrSky
The telemetry used in the GPS-Logger 2 must be specified, once only, in the settings. This
is done either through our PC program "GPS Konverter" or the UniDisplay. On delivery
HoTT is selected.
The GPS logger 2 comes with a built-in high-resolution pressure sensor giving via telemetry
a high-quality Vario, and the integrated TEK connection enables also the use of
compensation nozzles.
This provides a vario function with very accurate real rise and fall
displays independently from "stick thermals".
For an accurate height measurement, even when operating with TEK nozzle, a second
pressure sensor is installed, so irrespective of the speed correct height data is provided.
Conclusions about the in flight loads are provided by the built-in 3-axis accelerometer. At
each waypoint in the recording, and also by telemetry, the acceleration of all three axes can
be displayed.
The new competition format OLC, the On Line Contest, is well supported by the GPS-Logger
2. The built in sound sensor (ENL = engine noise level) provides data so that the motor
running time in the climb is automatically recognised.
The OLC necessary IGC file is created
directly on the memory card and digitally signed without any other conversion software being
needed.
When operating with Multiplex M-Link all data on the sensor bus is automatically logged by
the GPS-Logger 2 and also written to the memory card
MSB Data logger.
