NAME
obdgpslogger - Log OBD and GPS data to sqlite SYNOPSIS
obdgpslogger [ options ] DESCRIPTION
This is a tool to log OBDII and GPS data to an sqlite database OPTIONS
-s|--serial <serialport> Open this serial port device to connect to the elm327 device. -c|--count <count> Take this many samples at most. Leaving this option out defaults to incessant sampling. -u|--output-log <filename> Redirect stdout and stderr to this file -l|--serial-log <filename> Log all serial comms into this file. -a|--samplerate <samples-per-second> Sample at most this many times a second. The software will sleep temporarily at the end of each loop if appropriate. Keep in mind there is an upper limit to samplerate, typically capped by I/O on your serial port. Set this to zero to sample as fast as possible. BE WARNED. Values greater than ten here are forbidden for cars predating April 2002. If you think your car postdates early 2002, and you'd like to sample as fast as possible, the -o option may help -o|--enable-optimisations Enable certain elm327 optimisations. This will [usually] make sampling faster [not a noticeable amount if you're only sampling once a second], but makes it much easier to accidentally disobey the standard if you're sampling as fast as possible. -p|--capabilities Dump the commands your OBD device claims to support to stdout, then exit. -m|--daemonise Convert the program to a background daemon after successfully initialising. -B|--modifybaud [rate] Attempt to upgrade baudrate to rate. If rate isn't specified, we'll just take a few guesses and go with what works. -b|--baud <rate> Attempt to set serial port baudrate to this after launching. Passing zero tells it to try and guess, or -1 to not try changing at all. -d|--db <database> Open this database to log data to. The software will create the database if it does not exist, and create the tables it needs. -i|--log-columns <column names> Comma-separated list of column names. These are the short names listed when you use "-p" to get your car's capabilities -v|--version Print out version number and exit. -h|--help Print out help and exit. NOT OPTIONS
These options are not intended to be used by end users using the command line, they are support options for the GUI component. Use or rely on them at your own peril. -t|--spam-stdout Write all readings to stdout. The format is unlikely to change in practice, but if you choose to try to parse this yourself, I don't want to hear about it when it does change. SEE ALSO

NAME
ncpd - Daemon which handles the serial link to a Psion SYNOPSIS
ncpd [-V] [-h] [-v log-class] [-d] [-e] [-p [host:]port] [-s device] [-b baud-rate] [long-options] DESCRIPTION
ncpd is the daemon which handles the serial link to your Psion. It listens at port 7501 for local connections and provides basic PLP/NCP services for plpfuse and plpftp and other front-ends. It auto-connects to the psion, even after unplugging/switching off therefore it can run all the time if you can dedicate a serial device to it. OPTIONS
-V, --version Display the version and exit -h, --help Display a short help text and exit. -e, --autoexit Exit automatically if the device is disconnected. Furthermore, use the current tty as I/O device. This option is intended for start- ing ncpd on demand using mgetty's auto-detect function. (A patch for mgetty is needed for that). -v, --verbose=log-class Increase the logging level of the program. the possible values for log-class are: nl Set NCP debug level to LOG nd Set NCP debug level to DEBUG ll Set Link debug level to LOG ld Set Link debug level to DEBUG pl Set Packet debug level to LOG pd Set Packet debug level to DEBUG ph Set Packet debug level to HANDSHAKE m Set overall debug level to verbose all Turn on all the above logging on. -d, --dontfork Do not background the daemon. -p, --port=[host:]port Specify the port to listen on - by default the value for the host is 127.0.0.1 and the value for the port is looked up in /etc/ser- vices using the key psion/tcp. If it is not found there, a default value of 7501 is used. -s, --serial=device Specify the serial device to use to connect to the Psion - this defaults to /dev/ttyS0 -b, --baudrate=baud-rate Specify the baud rate to use for the serial connection. If the word auto is specified, ncpd cycles through baud-rates of 115200, 57600, 38400, 19200 and 9600 baud. Default setting is auto. SEE ALSO
