Tracklog help for ArcPad

Question

What is the recommended interval (secs) to be set for collecting the tracklog in the field? I normally use 25 seconds, is there any recommendations? Also has anyone tried the Custom Tracklog Toolbar on ArcPad? I am having issues cloning the tracklog for the day? Any suggestions?? Thanks in advance. Regards,

I just checked on my Juno 3B and its working. Which version of ArcPad are you using? We did have scripting problem in 10.2 and 10.2.1 that was fixed in 10.2.2. Its possible you need an ArcPad update.

Hello Marika,

None of the tools worked on the JUNO SB I was using. I will try it again.

Thank you for your help.

Replying specifically to your question about the Custom Tracklog Toolbar - which tool specifically isn't working for you?

1. Archive tool - turns GPS off and moves the contents of tracklog shapefile to another file with the name Tracklog_hhmmss_dd_mm_yyyy

2. Load tool - launches the add layer dialog to browse for an archived layer and when added to map, makes it editable

3. Clone tool - clones the points from the archived point layer and creates a line in an open and editable line layer.
