innovative product.

Once you have installed the TripLogik

Distance and Route Recorder while it is

connected it will log every journey that

your vehicle makes whether it is simply a

short trip to local shops, visits to your

customers or a weeks fishing and

hunting vacation.

Your Route Recorder (logger) has

sufficient capacity to store information on

journeys equivalent to driving 4

hours/day for the whole year before it

becomes full.

Please take the time to read this manual

to get the most out of your new

purchase.

drip-proofed or waterproofed.

Do not expose to temperatures above

65°C (149°F).

It is recommended you only use with the

power adapters supplied. The Route

Recorder requires 5V dc at 80mA max,

50mA average.

The Route Recorder incorporates a

sensitive radio receiver. Do not operate

close to strong radio waves or radiation.

When disconnecting the USB lead pull it

by the plug not the cable.

Disposal of Old Electronic Equipment

Do not dispose of this item in

household waste. Recycle or

dispose of separately.

Getting Started

Box Contents

Ensure that you have the following items

supplied with your TripLogik Logger.

TripLogik Route Recorder

USB to Mini-USB connecting Cable

ODBii Power Adapter and Cable

Cigarette Lighter Power Adapter

CD-ROM containing:

TripLogik Manager Application

User Manual

Quick Start Guide

Hook and loop pads

1 alcohol wipe

Installing the TripLogik Logger

in your Car

Positioning

Place the TripLogik Logger on the

dashboard in as horizontal a position as

possible. Generally the best places are

centrally or to the left or right hand end

of the dashboard. Try to position it so

that the top of the unit has a clear line of

sight vertically through the windscreen.

On some vehicles where the windscreen

has only a slight rake you may need to

place the unit up close to the windscreen

to get the best line of sight to the sky.

Use the self adhesive hook and loop pads

provided to retain the unit in place. To

ensure the optimum adhesion first clean

the surface of the dashboard with the

alcohol wipe provided.

Connecting the Power

There are 2 options for powering the

Logger.

Preferred Method

The preferred method for powering the

unit is from your vehicle‟s on board

diagnostic connector (ODBii) using the

power adapter cable provided. The

ODBii connector is normally situated

beneath the dash on the driver‟s side of

the car.

Note –ODBii connectors are standard

on all cars produced after 1996.

In most vehicles the ODBii connector

remains powered even when the

vehicle‟s ignition is turned off which

means your logger will be ready to log

as soon as you get in your vehicle.

It also leaves your cigarette lighter

socket free for other uses.

Locate the connector (there may be a

small cover over it) and connect in the

power adapter cable supplied. Plug the

other end of the cable into the TripLogik

Mileage Logger.

Important!

Coil up any excess cable and secure it in

a position where it will not be a hazard

when driving.

Alternative Method

If your vehicle is not equipped with an

ODBii diagnostic port or you prefer not to

use the diagnostic port a cigarette lighter

adapter is provided.

Plug the adapter into a suitable cigarette

lighter socket and use the USB to Mini-

USB cable to connect to the TripLogik

Logger.

Power to the Logger might not be

available until you switch the vehicle‟s

ignition on.

Note –While in many vehicles the

ODBii connector remains powered at

all times some remove power from

the connector when the car is locked.

On most vehicles the cigarette lighter

is only powered on when the vehicle‟s

ignition is turned on.

In either of the above situations if

power has been removed from the

logger for more than a couple of

hours the logger will perform a cold

start which can take 36 Seconds or

longer.

Checking Operation

On receiving power the elliptical button

on the Logger will start flashing

indicating the unit is searching for

satellites.

If the vehicle is positioned in an open

area, after about 36 Seconds the

indicator should cease flashing and

remain permanently on and the logger

will issue a short bleep. This indicates

the unit is receiving sufficient position

data from the satellites to produce a fix.

After 1 minute, if there has been no

movement the unit will revert to standby

and the indicator will extinguish.

Following any movement the logger will

awake from standby and the indicator

illuminate.

Note –If you require the data stored

in your logger to be secure it is

recommended that you change the

password prior to use.

You can change the password using

the TripLogik Manager software.

Be aware that any changes to the

password will cause all previous

collected data to be deleted.

Installing TripLogik Manager

Software

Minimum PC Requirements

Please note the minimum requirements

for running the software are:

PC running Microsoft™ Windows XP

(or above).

1 USB Port, mouse and keyboard

and CD Drive.

25Mbyte free disk space

An Internet connection

Running Setup

Place the CD enclosed in your PC‟s CD

drive, Setup will run automatically. Read

the terms and conditions and accept

them then follow the instructions on the

screen.

Once set up has completed you can start

TripLogik Manager at any time by clicking

on the desktop Icon or from the

Programs menu.

And finally…

If you are likely to use the TripLogik

Manager with more than one Logger it is

advisable to add an ID mark to each

Logger.

Use the white space

provided on the rear

label of the unit to

add a mark identifying

the owner or user of

the Route Recorder

Your TripLogik Route Recorder

should now be set up and ready to Use.

Logging Trips

This section explains how to use the

TripLogik Mileage Logger in your vehicle.

Before driving away

Before driving away check that the

TripLogik indicator is continuously

illuminated and not flashing. While it is

flashing your logger will not be ready and

will be unable to log your vehicle‟s

movements.

In most vehicles, if your logger is

connected to the ODBii connector it

should be ready to log your journey as

soon as you start your vehicle.

If your logger is connected to a

cigarette lighter, the logger will not

power up until you turn on the vehicle

ignition and could take 36 Seconds or

more before it is ready.

Note –If the logger detects vehicle

movement before a satellite fix has

been acquired it will issue a warning

with 3 bleeps on the audio sounder.

Driving

Once TripLogik Logger has acquired the

satellite signals you do not need to do

anything else. The Logger will record all

your vehicles movements in its on board

memory without further intervention.

Recording Points of Interest

If you want to make a note of a specific

location press and hold the button on the

Logger for a second. The logger will

flash the indicator and beep at which

point the co-ordinates of that location will

be recoded.

Later when you upload your logs to your

PC you can retrieve the location of points

of interest and view them in Google

Maps™ using the TripLogik Manager.

Visual and Audible indicators

The Logger reports its status through a

combination of the indicator under the

elliptical button and an internal sounder.

Connecting and disconnecting

the logger

If you have installed the ODBii

connection to connect or disconnect the

logger simply plug or unplug the mini-

USB connector.

If you are using the cigarette lighter

connector unplug the USB cable at the

power adaptor end. (You will need the

cable to connect the logger to your PC).

Caution –When removing the USB

Cable pull the plug, not the cable.

When inserting the USB connector

make sure it is correctly orientated.

Do not attempt to force the plug or

you risk damaging your logger.

TripLogik Manager

When you have accumulated a few trips

you can upload these to your PC.

Remove the Logger from your vehicle.

Using the USB cable supplied, connect it

to a USB port on your PC, the button on

the Logger will illuminate.

If the PC does not detect the logger,

disconnect, hold down the button on

the logger and reconnect.

First Look

Run TripLogik Manager. The screen

will open with a map to the right and a

blank column to the left.

Click on the Sync Toolbar button. Your

logs will be imported and, if you are

connected to the Internet, TripLogik

Manager will look up the places you have

visited on Google Maps™.

A brief address for each place visited will

appear in the left hand column and the

first item will be shown on the map.

Beneath the list is an aerial view (Super

Zoom) of the first place in the list.

Click on Trips to view each journey the

logger has identified. In Trips you can

merge, demerge, delete, name and

categorise your journeys.

Click on Reports to generate filtered

reports which can be viewed, printed or

exported to other applications.

You can save your trips in a Trip File on

your PC by choosing File, Save.

Similarly, you can open an existing Trip

File by choosing File, Open.

The following sections cover these and

other activities in more detail. Further

information can be found in the on-line

help. Press the F1 key at any time or

choose Help Topics from the Help

Menu.

Managing your Logger

Using Passwords

The Logger is password protected. Its

default password is the Logger‟s serial

number. You can access this number by

selecting Tools, TripLogik Status…

To change the password, from the menu

select Logger, Change Password…

Warning - All your data will be

erased if you change the password.

Enter the new password, confirm it and

choose OK.The application will register

this password against the serial number

of the logger.

If you attempt to access a logger whose

password has not been registered by the

TripLogik Manager on that PC, the

application will ask for the password.

Unless you have chosen not to, correct

entry will register the Logger password

and you will not have to enter the

password again on that PC.

Synchronising your data

When you connect the Logger to a USB

port while TripLogik Manager is running

you will be able to upload the latest trip

data into the Manager.

You can initiate an upload either by

clicking on the Sync button on the

toolbar or choosing Sync from the

Logger Menu.

If you already have a trip file open the

Manager will only import trips which are

more recent than those held in the

current Trip File.

If you have no trip file open the Manager

will import all the trips.

Working with Places

The Places tab shows a list of all the

places you have visited. By default each

place will have a descriptive name,

typically the street name and town

supplied by Google Maps™. If it could

not be identified its name will be

„Unknown‟.

Each place also shows a percentage

value indicating the number of times that

location has been visited as a proportion

of the total number of trips. Typically,

your Home or Office locations would

have a high percentage of visits.

Adding Information to a Place

Along the top of the Map window are 3

fields Description, Category and

Qualifier which you can use to add

more meaningful information to the

Place.

Use Description to give the place a

description which is meaningful to you

e.g. Home, Main Office, London Office

etc. Each time you visit that place, it will

be associated with the description you

have given it.

You can also assign a Category and a

Qualifier attribute to each place. E.g.

your main office could have the Category

of Business and a Qualifier of Head

Office.

(See Categorising Places and

Trips for further information.)

The Description and the Category and

Qualifier attributes will be saved when

you save your database.

It is recommended that you provide a

name for regularly visited places as it will

enable TripLogik Manager to quickly

identify all these locations both now and

in future uploads.

Working with Trips

The Trips tab shows a list of all the

journeys the logger has recognised as

trips.

During uploading from the Logger

TripLogik Manager checks the grid

reference of each Trip start and end

point against those held on the Places

database.

If found the Description held in the

Places database will define the start and

end of the trip.

If the start or end grid references cannot

be found in the Places database the

Google Maps™ address will be used to

define the respective end.

If the grid reference cannot be identified

in Google Maps™ the Description will

contain “Unknown”.

What is a Trip - If you are stationary

for longer than approx 5 minutes, the

logger will log your journey up to that

point as a Trip.

Editing Trips

Along the top of the Map window are

fields carrying information about the Trip

and fields you can edit to add further

information specific to each trip.

Merging Trips

There will be occasions when you will

want to merge consecutive trips into one

continuous trip. E.g. if you have stopped

to refuel it is probable that the logger will

assume you have reached your

destination.

You can do this in two ways:

Double-Click the last trip in the list of

trips you wish to merge to join the

selected trip with the Trip above.

Select the first trip you wish to join, hold

down the shift key and select the last trip

in the list you wish to join. Check Merge

from the Edit menu.

Merged trips will appear with to the

left of the item and will report the start

and end of the combined trips. The

underlying trips can be made visible by

clicking on . To hide the underlying

trips click on .

You can Demerge trips in a similar

manner. With the underlying trips in

view, select the trip you wish to de-

merge and uncheck Merge.The

selected trip and any merged trips below

will be restored to individual trips.

Deleting Trips

You can remove a trip from the list by

choosing Delete from the right hand

mouse menu. The item will be removed

from the list of visible trips; however,

trips will never be deleted from the

database but will be placed in the

Recycle Bin.

You can restore deleted trips by clicking

on the Recycle tab, highlighting the

required trip and choosing Restore from

the right hand mouse menu.

Categorising Places and Trips

There are two attributes which you can

use to qualify places and trips: Category

and Qualifier.

Attributes are optional but their use will

greatly ease report writing and it is

strongly recommended that you make

use of them.

When initially installed TripLogik

manager has 2 pre-defined categories

set, Business and Personal. You can

change these and/or add new categories.

The Qualifier attribute has no predefined

qualifiers it is up to you to add them.

Note –Trips marked with a icon

indicates the trip has not been

assigned a category.

Modifying Attributes

To add, modify or delete a Category or

Qualifier attribute click on the ellipsis

button to the left of the appropriate

attribute.

Applying Attributes to Places

When you assign a category or qualifier

to a place all Trips from or to that place

will assume that attribute as long as the

opposite end of the Trip has the same

attribute or has no attributes.

Applying Attributes to Trips

If the start and end places of the trip

already carry a category and qualifier the

Trip may also have these attributes.

If you assign attributes to the Trip these

will override any attributes inherited from

the start or ends places of that Trip.

Using attributes in Trips can simplify the

process of producing filtered reports.

(See Producing Filtered Reports for more

information)

Saving your Data

To save your data select File, Save.

This will save all your Trip and Places

information to a database file with the

extension „.TLD‟.

Typically, once you have saved your first

set of Trips and characterised your places

you will want to add future Trips to this

database.

To add Trips to your existing database,

select File, Open choose the database

and, with your logger connected, click

Sync. Trips recorded in the logger

subsequent to your last Sync will be

added to the database.

About Databases –The database

holds the ID of the logger first used to

upload your trips. You can only add

future trips to that database from the

same logger.

Working with Reports

By default, with no filters selected, when

you click on the Reports Tab you will see

a report listing all the trips you have

made with the accumulated mileage from

these trips. You can print this report, as

is, by selecting File, Print.

However, you will inevitably want to

change both the layout and to filter the

database for a specific set of trips; e.g.

your business trips for the month of

January.

Assuming you added a category to all

your business trips you can report just

those trips. To do this you need to apply

a Filter.

Filtering

While you can filter on places and your

trip descriptions, to make best use of the

filter functions you need to have

assigned a category and optionally a

qualifier to your trips. (See Categorising

Places and Trips).

Filtering returns only those Trips whose

attributes meet the attributes set out in

the filter. E.g. If you had categorised

some of your trips as business and you

set up a filter to filter trips whose

category was business the report would

only contain business trips.

You can filter on a single attribute for a

number of different values. E.g. you

might set up the filter Category to

contain Personal and Business. This

would return all your trips which had

been assigned the category Business or

Personal but would exclude all other

trips.

A text pattern filter is available on the

Trip Description attribute. This will

return Trips which have the specified

words or phrases in their description field

and can serve as a useful search

function.

You can also filter on the places you set

out from, places you travelled to or both.

The filter form is „Live‟ so any changes

you make to the filter will be reflected

immediately in the underlying report.

Remember –Each filter element is

additive; i.e. for a trip to pass through

the filter it must meet a criteria value

for all of the elements you have

entered in the filter.

Report Layout

In layout you can choose the fields to be

included in the report, add headers and

footers, font sizes and layout.

You can see the effect of your layout

changes by clicking Apply.

Printing a Report

The reports screen shows the report as it

would appear printed. To print the

report select Print from the File menu.

Saving a Report

You can save a report which can then be

opened in other TripLogik Managers.

This can be useful if you need to report

your travel to your company or wish to

share your journeys.

Choose Save from the File menu and

save as a TLR file.
