GL-770

The GL-770 (GL is for "GLONASS" that it supports in addition to GPS) is a GPS logger that we acquired on 10 May (2022) but returned on 18 May (2022) as not suitable for us.

Its main problem is to access the data, which can only be done with Windows. The cp210x driver is recognized by linux but, possibly because of a password that they stupidly set up, one cannot retrieve any data from the device except through their Windows LogView application, which does not work through wine but only under the native Microsoft environment.

The main page with specs of the device can be found here.
