################################################################################ # Event_Logger for TomTom GO - QUICK INSTALLATION GUIDE # Author: amacri@tiscali.it # Event_Logger 8.1 - http://web.tiscali.it/macri/Event_Logger ################################################################################ # # QUICK INSTALLATION AND UPGRADE GUIDE # ################################################################################ Download software at: http://web.tiscali.it/macri/Event_Logger/Event_Logger-8.1.zip ______________________________________________ Legend: - TTGO: TomTom GO (any model) - 'H:': example of name of a TTGO file system when mounted to an external system via USB ______________________________________________ Compatibility: NavCore v5.x, v6.x, v7.x for all-in-one TomTom devices (see instructions). Event_Logger is not compatible with PDA or Symbian devices. Installing Event_Logger does not compromise and does not degrade the performance of the normal TomTom operation, even for untested models or versions. Event_Logger can be deinstalled or deactivated when needed. ______________________________________________ Installation files: Place the following files in the TTGO SD card (or HD, depending on the models), respecting cases for all file names and keeping the same directory tree (directories must be created when not existing) Program: o H:\cleanup.txt (notice that H:\ttn of any previous Event_Logger version must be deleted) o H:\Itn\gpx.xsl (should be also copied in all the directories including unzipped gpx files) o H:\Tracer\acal o H:\Tracer\bsh.bz2 o H:\Tracer\bz2cat o H:\Tracer\Event_Logger.txt (can be configured through any Windows editor, regardless of DOS or UNIX newlines) o H:\Tracer\mkel o H:\Tracer\toggledata o H:\Tracer\toggledmn o H:\Tracer\togglelog o H:\Tracer\top o H:\Tracer\zip o H:\Tracer\wd o H:\Tracer\gpsbabel (can be deleted if not needed) o H:\Tracer\zip3 (can be deleted if not needed) Menu entries: o H:\SdkRegistry\acal.cap o H:\SdkRegistry\logpoi.cap o H:\SdkRegistry\logpos.cap o H:\SdkRegistry\toggledata.cap o H:\SdkRegistry\toggledmn.cap (can be deleted if “Toggle Event_Logger daemon” is unwanted) o H:\SdkRegistry\toggletrk.cap (can be deleted if “Toggle GPX Tracer” command is unwanted) o H:\SdkRegistry\togglelog.cap (can be deleted if “Toggle Debug Level” command is unwanted) o H:\SdkRegistry\top.cap (can be deleted if the “Top” command is unwanted) Menu icons: o H:\SdkRegistry\acal.bmp o H:\SdkRegistry\logpoi.bmp o H:\SdkRegistry\logpos.bmp o H:\SdkRegistry\toggledata.bmp o H:\SdkRegistry\toggledmn.bmp o H:\SdkRegistry\togglelog.bmp o H:\SdkRegistry\toggletrk.bmp o H:\SdkRegistry\top.bmp Notice that H:\Sources (useless on the TomTom) should be deleted from TomTom to save space. Also Event_Logger.pdf and ReadMe.txt can be safely deleted from the TomTom SD (or HD). ______________________________________________ INSTALLATION NOTES: copy all files (apart from “Sources“ directory, Event_Logger.pdf and any ReadMe.txt). It is essential preserve the directory structure included in the ZIP package. Edit Tracer\Event_Logger.txt with any editor (including notepad) and, above all, check variables TIMEZONE and LANGUAGE. If the Tracer directory is missing after the archive extraction, repeat the installation procedure preserving the directory structure. See the Installation paragraph of the documentation for further information. Verify that toggledmn.cap, toggletrk.cap, togglelog.cap and top.cap are really needed; if not, remove them from the SdkRegistry directory. Verify that \Tracer\gpsbabel and \Tracer\zip3 are really needed; if not, remove them to save space. UPGRADE NOTES: follow the same instructions of the INSTALLATION NOTES. o remove H:\ttn (if existing) of any old Event_Logger version (important) o rename _Logger.itn (if existing) to _Latest_Events.itn o EventLogger.tgz and Event_Logger.tgz (if existing in “Itn” directory) can be moved in Itn\Bkp directory (can be created if not existing, otherwise Event_Logger automatically creates it). o "Track" directory (inside "Tracer" directory) is no more used (can be archived and deleted) o expr in the "Tracer" directory (if still existing) can be removed. o If using POIs, rename Tracker.ov2/Tracker.bmp (if existing) to POI_Tracker.ov2/POI_Tracker.bmp See the Installation paragraph for further information. FURTHER INSTALLATION NOTES: o Notice that there is no specific switch for daylight saving, which must be managed changing the TIMEZONE variable accordingly. o IMPORTANT WARNING: do not forget to copy the file named “cleanup.txt” to the root of the SD or HD. - IMPORTANT WARNING: Do not exceed the maximum number of 10 “.cap” files in the “SdkRegistry” directory. o Verify that Debug is set to 0 inside Event_Logger.txt. If any of the files ttnlog-<date>.txt, TtnLog.txt, TrxLog.txt, trxlog-<date>.txt are available in the Tracer directory, this means that the Debug flag was not set to 0 in a previous Event_Logger version; all these files can be safely deleted to save space; anyway, before deleting them, with the WordPad editor please check the presence of the string _Event_Logger_Script_ERROR_ inside each of them; if this string exists, email the files to amacri@tiscali.it in order to facilitate bug fixing. o in case H:\cleanup.txt is already existing because a different SDK program is installed, add the following line to the existing file instead of replacing it: daemon|Tracer/mkel| (NOTE: The H:\cleanup.txt file must only have one recurrence of the previous command) In case there is a tomtom.mnu files available in the SdkRegistry directory of TTGO, that file should be modified in order to include the new SDK entries (see Event_Logger.pdf for further information). Notice that this file introduces limitations with NavCore 7. Setting the owner's preferences (a specific menu of TomTom) is discouraged with firmware version 6.210 (it might freeze SDK functions until the "Continue" button is pressed). Other v.6 versions are untested against this issue. A random menu reset to the initial menu page might happen while navigating into the menus (typically after powering the device on; this is due to a small glitch in the TomTom application while processing the Event_Logger command changing night/day colours). ________________________________________________ Donations are more than happily accepted! Event_Logger took a lot of days of development within two years, as well as large number of testing and user support; if you really like this software, you are kindly invited to send donations; email to amacri@tiscali.it with subject Donation to know how to perform this.
