CatTrack I

I'm trying to get my old CatTrack I working.

It looks like I tried this also about a year and a half ago.

Here is a website that references the product I have:

http://www.mr-lee-catcam.de/BINARY/CatTrack1_User_Manual.pdf

I'm not clear if I have the software for it installed on my current home server (laptop).

So, it looks like the drivers are here: http://www.mr-lee.com/cl_supp.htm

CatLog - Device Driver and Controll Center for Windows (January 6, 2016)

I download this file...named catlog_atrip.zip. 97 MB.

It unzips to a file called atrip.exe (99 MB).

Run atrip.exe

From the User Guide, it looks like I have the GT100 or the GT120.

1. Install @trip PC
2. Charge GPS Logger
3. Power on
4. Get first GPS fix
5. Connect PC to import data

OK. It looks like the software installed successfully.

OK. Now...Start - @TripPC.
Current Travel & Sports Suite Version
Version 5.0 Build 1612 2045 (ENG)

Do you want to check if there's any updated software compatible with your device?

I clicked OK, but it launched some app...@Trip. Live! Travel Blog Master.

OK. I think now, I should connect my CatTrack I.

OK. Connected CatTrack I. It has a red light and a blue light on it.

Now, I click Import GPS Tracks in the app.

Import data from device (GPS).

Please connect GPS device to PC to download track data. (Flashing).

I'm not sure what I did...I fiddled with the device...it has a red and a blue light...then it started working suddenly. It appears to have downloaded the GPS tracks. Create a Trip or Geotag photos.

Hmmm. Let's do "Create a Trip".

Start a Trip. Next.

Trip Name: 20180630-200931

Next. Finish.

Trip Completed. Track data and photos are imported successfully.
FInish.
Please wait while loading map data...

OK. I was able to see the tracks on the map. (The cats went nowhere...never left the yard, it seems). Deleted tracks.

OK. I cleared the tracks successfully.

Now, I just need to recharge the tracker, put it on the cats, and see what we get.
