This is an attempt to make Bryton GPS devices usable on Linux.
Code for the Rider40 is now available in the code directory.
There is also branches for Rider20, Rider20+ and Rider35:
It currently has the following functionality:
- Readonly not write support
- List track history
- List track summary
- Generate GPX (plain and Garmin extension) and TCX files.
- Upload to strava.com
- Elevation correction using the SRTM Elevation Database.
Use the --help argument to see all the options.
The code is released under the GPL v3 license.
I have only access to a Rider40, but im interested in data from other devices. See dump.py for an example how to read the data from you device. It probably works with other devices.
Rider 40:
You need Python 2.7.
And if you are using one of Rider20, Rider40, Rider35, you also need the py_sg module. Rider50 and Rider20+ don't need this.
This can be installed with pip or easy_install:
pip install py_sg
To access the device without root access you can use the following udev rule: (Not needed by Rider50 and Rider20+)
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0483", ATTRS{idProduct}=="5720", GROUP="users"
Place this into the file "/etc/udev/rule.d/99-brytongps.rules" you may have to reboot for it to take effect.
Now you can run:
$ python brytongps.py -h
