My first impression and the test ride:

What pleased me well, was the easy installation on the laptop. The small receiver is first a little spielig. I feel the negative Eintasten attitude with which the input / off Bluetooth, and docking and more regulated.

The LED's confusing and you never really know the beginning, whether the device is now an-/oder off. But after flashing the sign of the device is understood, it can go.

So I drove to the harbor and got on our test boat. The unit I put in the bin in front of the window, so that a relatively good visual connection existed. According to the manufacturer needs the device is not necessarily a direct line of sight, but it is so careful ..

Ungefair I drove a test distance of 15 KM and knipste with my cellphone camera just start editing away. After I in a good bay had free time, I drove the same route back.

At home (about 4 hours total), I put the device into the USB port. Although only USB 1 is available, the transfer went fairly fixed. There were 1480 recorded waypoints. The second demanded the software my pictures. I had them from the phone to my laptop over to play and loaded. Except for a photo I should manually assign, all items in the correct location.

The software was then sent to me, this track which I either prepare for Google Earth, or those on the side of the manufacturer in a public gallery can store around the track to share with others.

Furthermore, there is the possibility of the data on the disk drive. Dannn there were options besides the pictures to photo map providers in the web to play

The whole thing is quite easy to use and you can also during the entire recording is still as a Bluetooth GPS receiver with our software combine. Thus, I also draw on what I send to my server. It is interesting to the whole, for example, in sites and to tour with a series of photos to paint.

Of course this application is more for the private user. For a tracking portal bargees as it is only interesting because we all routes with some sea navigation software calibrate to ensure optimal tour leadership within the ideal fairway to guarantee. But to record a route and a GPS tour that goes all times.

The only important thing is that of the recording, hopefully not drunk boat driving ;-)

In this sense, can I get this nice GPS tool only recommend any skipper who wants to document his travels and the fullness of his photos from your digital camera at the right points implemented.

The software works correctly and reliably it is easy for any layman.

Conclusion, for the price of just $ 50 you can not go wrong. Barge will definitely be thinking about how far an adjustment to IgotU worthwhile.

In this sense, until next blog
