be displayed in the status line indicating that "Moving Map is ON". When receiving NMEA data of
the correct type the text "<+>" will toggle ON and OFF in the status line. If this is not happening
then there is no NMEA sentence of the correct type being received by the software, or the data
within the sentence is not valid. There is a button included on the standard User Toolbar to start or
stop communication with the GPS.
Stop NMEA Communication with the GPS
- Stops communication with the GPS.
Ignore NMEA Valid Data Flag
-
This is for those GPS receivers which send an
invalid data flag
with the data when they are in simulator mode (such as Lowrance and Eagles and others), if the flag
is not ignored no position will be plotted when using the GPS in simulator mode.
However it is no good ignoring the valid data flag if the GPS is not in simulator mode or does
not have a satellite fix, the data will be ignored anyway.
Important
-
turn this
off
when your GPS has a true fix.
Show NMEA Input & Output
-
Shows the NMEA sentences that OziExplorer is receiving and the
NMEA sentences that OziExplorer is sending (to an Autopilot).
NMEA Simulator
- To simulate the input of the $GPRMC sentence from a GPS. See the
NMEA
Simulator
help for details.
Log Track Tail
-
The track is automatically logged and displayed on the map. See "The Track"
section of the Moving Map
help page for more information.
Copy Track Tail to Track 1
-
Copies the track tail to Track 1.
Clear Track Tail
-
Clears the track tail.
Log Track to File
-
The track is automatically logged to a file. The file name and creation interval is
dependent on the
Track Log File
setting on the Track tab in Configuration. The track log can be
stored to different files Daily, Weekly, Monthly or Never. The default setting is
Daily
. e.g. The
Daily track log file name includes the date (TrackLog 2011-08-
12 daily.plt). The track log file is just
a normal track file and can be opened and displayed on the map at a later time.
If the setting "Never" is used, the track file name specified in the option below is used (the default
file name is
mmTrack.plt
).
Change Track Log File
- Allows you to specify a new file to log the track to.
Clear Track Log File
- Erases the track log file you specified in the option above. It will
automatically be recreated the next time a track is logged in Moving Map mode. If you have track
logging to file turned on and are using the
Never
(create a new file) option,
the log file will just keep
growing in size so it needs to be erased from time to time.
Automatically Scroll Map
-
This option turns on or off the automatic map scrolling which will keep
your current position displayed in the viewing area of the map as you move.
