[Interested to know how expressions are calculated]

Hi all,

Within the SDK pack. I can see that FS Interrogator uses the expression *90/10001750 on the memory read result to gain the actual Latitude. My question is: how is this expression deduced for this particular field and others? or is this black box stuff? :wink:

Thanks for that. Found what I was looking for.

Would you mind performing a worked example of how to extract Lat info from offsets 0560 and 0564 using the hi/lo method, as I can't get a 64-bit string using FSInterrogator. I've tried working through your procedure but am going wrong somewhere.

Thanks.

Hi Pete, Hi all.

I have had tremendous success with the GPSOut module, thank you very much for a fine product! It was refreshing to see something like that work for me first time around considering I have no FS development experience or knowledge. It even outputted GPS data to another application (PocketFMS) on the same computer running FS - I connected my two COM ports together :wink:

Pete, I would be grateful for some information on the FS variables/data exported to this module. If you could perhaps speak a little about the information extracted, from exactly where, and about any conversions that take place. Also, in your opinion is it possible to have FS driven by GPS data input?

If any of the above is bordering on the cheeky, please say so. Many thanks.
