OK, i think I have seen a glitch! Please see linked screen shot. I believe the CAN addresses should increment in blocks of four? If you look at CAN9 to CAN12 they are all on 0x246 (Decimal 582) but so are CAN 13 to CAN16 !!


I know these need changing, but that then "bumps" the higher CAN 17 on to the next higher address. I just need guiding how to sort this please. Looks like this is the culprit to me?

Well spotted! Can't believe haven't seen that.

Just change CAN13 to 0x247, the following four will update automatically. Then continue with the rest.

This is now working just fine. I am ready to order the GDA Pro upgrade if you can just confirm you are 100% sure it will allow the combining of the split GPS data streams from my M800 to allow generation of GPS track maps and lap timing in GDA? Thanks again, we got there in the end :)

Excellent news!

I am 99 percent sure. If it does not, we'll happily give you a refund.

GDA Pro shipped, should be with you tomorrow.

Go to Data > Edit Math, add a new math channel (plus symbol on the right). The maths you will need for combining the Lat and long gps will be (ignore the Code:select all):

Code: Select all

combine16('GPS LAT HW','GPS LAT LW')
This may need some more processing though. Have you any details on how the M800 sends this data?

Thanks for posting the dongle straight away and for taking the time to post the code before your break. May I just say how much I have appreciated your tireless help with this. Have a good weekend, all the best R!CO ! Only just noticed it's spelt with an exclamation mark. Cheers, I'll have a play with this stuff when the dongle shows.

This *MAY* be the way, I don't know enough to assess it properly. It's from a Motec forum post where someone was trying to get an early dash to process GPS data. I can ask the question over there if necessary.
