At Last! – An Affordable GPS Logger that Delivers Value and Performance

May 18, 2011 - PRLog -- If you’ve never heard of Holux before, it is time to sit up and take notice. With their M-241 Bluetooth GPS Logger, they really are challenging the old saying ‘you get what you pay for’.  Boasting a wide range of features, accuracy of 2.2m, and 12 hour run time, the M-241 is a versatile GPS logger that delivers high performance at an affordable price of just GBP 49.95 So whether you are working to a budget or just want exceptional value for money, the M-241 Bluetooth GPS Logger could be for you.

Accurate Location Tracking with 12 hour Battery Life!

Perhaps the most important consideration you need to make when buying a GPS logger is accuracy. When you are in the field, exploring the countryside, or in the middle of a journey, the last thing you need is inaccurate data or the logger being unable to fix your location. With the M-241, you will know exactly where you are, as it uses 32 parallel channels to locate your position to within 2.2 meters and track your journey in real-time.

Of course, you also need your GPS position to be readily available. Again, the M-241 will not disappoint, as its small size and lightweight (under 70g!) mean it can be carried easily in a pocket. The M-241 also has an integrated LCD display that shows your GPS location, speed, and distance travelled. The LCD also indicates the amount of flash memory available in the logger and the remaining battery time (a single AA battery provides around 12 hours run time and the flash memory can store approximately 130,000 tracking points).

With its accurate GPS fixes, long battery life, and lightweight design, the M-241 is ideal for outdoor pursuits, including hiking, cycling, and rambling. Its low price means it is also an excellent, cost-effective solution for many other route tracking requirements, such as vehicle and driver tracking. But the possible uses for an M-241 don’t end there – connect it to other devices and you can access a diverse range of extra features.

Connect to Other Devices and Open up a World of Functionality

The M-241 has built-in Bluetooth (NMEA protocol) and USB connectivity, so it is extremely easy to connect it to a wide range of devices, including PDAs, smart phones, and laptops. Once connected, the M-241 can act as a ‘slave’ GPS receiver, and its data can be shared with other applications. There are many ways you could use the data, including:

•   Geotag your Photos – Using the EZTour software (supplied with the M-241), you can synch your M-241 and camera.  Once synchronised, EZTour will log the location, time and date for each photo you take and writes this information into the photo files.

•   Display your Location on a Map – If you have mapping software on your laptop, smart phone or PDA, you can use it to view your current location. Acting as a GPS receiver, the M-241 fixes your location and the data is then sent to your mapping software.  You can also display your location and routes in Google Earth.

•   Monitor your Performance – If you are in training, you can use a variety of applications to read and compare the data from your M-241. So you can record your journeys and monitor your performance over time.

•   Pre-plan Routes – You can use any route planning software, or EZTour, to plan a route, mark waypoints, and then save the file in the .gpx format. Then, use EZTour to upload the route into your M-241, which will display the waypoint information when you are on your journey!

These are just some of the ways you can use an M-241 – there are so many other possibilities. We have seen this versatile logger used for a diverse range of tasks, from keeping cyclists on course to tracking refuse collection vehicles and logging the location of potholes!
