MAX HD4 GPS Positions

Would it be possible to get a printout of the most recent GPS Fix on the dashboard along with the Google Maps Window?

My Max HD4 is installed on a boat, and it would be nice to see the actual Latitude & Longitude value in Decimal Degrees (the value being written to the daily GPX File), not just a google maps window (which for me is almost always all blue water).

Hello @ArchimedesETO,
Are you using InControl2 for access your GPS records,
InControl2%20Download%20as%20GPX%20button%20(Rising%20Conection)
If so then you can download (by selecting the day required) the GPX data, this can be opened in a selection of software such as Google Earth & in Microsoft Excel as a XML import.

In MS Excel you will need you acknowledge the prompts as the file is imported, then look for the columns “lat52”, “lon53” & “ns1:ele54”,

you can save this out to other formats such a CSV and re-purpose this data then to other systems.

Happy to Help,

Usually I’m just logged into the local dashboard when I’m trying to troubleshoot connectivity issues. I don’t always have WAN access to load the IC2 pages.

Printing the most recent output or status of the GPS would be a useful piece of info to have in the config pages, and not just the visual representation of that data (dropped pin on google map).

Pulling a copy of the GPX and parsing it to try and see a single lat / lon is more trouble than it’s worth for me.
