RE: MI-L Geographic Tracker Time Lag

Hi Thomas,

I'm using Geographic Tracker in one of my projects and I do not have this
problem.

The only thing I see for now is that Geo Tracker may be set for a 40 seconds
update interval.  In this case, you can fix the problem by accessing the set
preference dialog box (Menu Options -> Set preferences...) and adjust the
update interval.

If you have already checked that, then I'm afraid I can't be anymore help!

I have started using the "Geographic Tracker" tool written by Blue Marble
for using GPS in conjunction with MapInfo V5.0. I am using this to plot
points in car-based recording of weed sites. I am experiencing a 40 second
lag between the digital generation of coordinate data by the GPS, and the
availability of this data for plotting points in the MapInfo application.
The motion of the "Current Position" indicator in the Map Window is always
40 seconds behind the actual current position. Line plotting indicates that
the current position data is being read by the application, but is simply
not being made available for point plotting for 40 seconds. Instantaneous
plotting (+/- 3 seconds) of the current position is crucial to my operation.
Has anyone experienced a similar problem? Is there a fix?

Cheers
