I.D. AL - GeoPlayer - MP3 and WAV Player with GPS function - Manual

1 - Product presentation

The GeoPlayer is an audio player which reads MP3 and WAV files stored on a SD memory card.

Playback of audio files is triggered by global positioning coordinates recorded by the integrated GPS sensor.

The GeoPlayer can read files in loop automatically on powering on ; at any time broadcast of background audio can be interrupted to play a file when a identified geographical position is reached.

Through the integrated GPS sensor, the GeoPlayer compares its current position with the positions listed in a correlation table. When they match, the GeoPlayer plays the audio file(s) associated to the position.

The GeoPlayer offers interactive GPS broadcast for tourist vehicles such as trains, buses, boats...

2 - Functionnalities

Geopositioning and interactivity: The GeoPlayer broadcasts audio files in relation to GPS positions.

Three trigger modes are available: Track mode, Alarm and Free Tour mode.

Autoplay: This function is available on the GeoPlayer; the player will automatically start playing the selected files on powering on.

Broadcast mode: The way files are organized and named on the SD card defines the broadcast mode.

Directory and file names provide powerful automation of playback patterns.

Updating: By removing the SD card from the player to transfer updates using a card reader on a PC.

Audio output: Two audio outputs are available. Line level stereo output on standard 3.5 stereo Mini-jack to connect the player onto a sound system and amplified output on screw-in terminal block to connect directly onto speakers. The ouput power is sufficient for any vehicle.

Power supply: The player is protected against polarity reversal. Caution, the NanoPlayer accepts variations between 10 and 15V. Outside this range, the player could be damaged.

Amplifier output power is determined by the power supply. When the line level output is used a 500mA

6W unit is enough to power the player. If the integrated amplifier is used a 2A (24W) power supply unit minimum is required. If the supply unit has insufficient power, sound will be very bad and the power unit will heat up and eventually break down.

4 - Operating the player and naming of files

The GeoPlayer reads files and playback instructions stored on the SD memory card. No extra software is required to configure the player. Playback options are provided by the way files are named and organized in the directories.

There are two categories of files:

1 - Files to be played on powering on the player and played back in loop.

2 - Files to be played on GPS position detection.

These 2 categories of files are represented by 2 directories or folders. Naming of directories results in various playback options.

A configuration file «gps.csv» must also be copied at the root of the SD card ; this file contains the various GPS positions and associated information (see details in chapter 5).

Example of use:

On powering on, one or several files are played and loop (background music for instance). When GPS location is reached, the looping files stop and the audio file associated to the GPS location is played; after playing the triggered file, the loop file is played again.

4.1 Organization of the two directories:

Only one level of directory is allowed at the root of the memory card. Two directories only are permitted.

Directory names are composed of 2 meaningful characters.

Exemple : «0R» or «0S» and «GPS»

4.1.1 Directory «0x»

Place in this directory audio files to be played in loop on powering on the player. When the player is powered, presence of this directory is checked. If it is found, all the files are played. If it is not present on the SD card, the player goes to standby mode and awaits for a GPS input.

The maximum number of files in this directory is 250.

The first digit «0» defines the directory number.

0x : Directory 0 is the default directory played on powering on the player.

The letter defines the broadcast mode of the files in the directory.

xR : R for random mode (RND) xS : S for sort mode in sequenced order (SORT)

® Waves System

- 8 -

V 1.0 - 2008

I.D. AL - GeoPlayer - MP3 and WAV Player with GPS function - Manual

- When choosing «R», files are played in random mode.

In random mode, files names are free followed by extension .mp3 for MP3 files and extension .wav for

WAVE files. It is possible to mix both types of files in the same directory.

- When choosing «S», files are played in a sequential order. Sorting is in numerical order of the first 3 digits of file names. Therefore files need to be numbered with 3 figures, which can be or not followed by complementary characters.

For example:

001 my song.mp3

002 another song.mp3

003 music.wav

004.wav

....

250 another music.mp3

In sequential order mode «S», non numbered files will be ignored.

Caution: 250 files maximum !

Note : in sequential mode (SORT), only numbered files will be read, non-numbered files will be ignored. In random, all files will be read.

If no file needs to be played on powering on, do not create this directory.

4.1.2 Directory «GPS»

The «GPS» directory contains files to be broadcast in relation to the geographical positions of the

GeoPlayer. File names are compulsory and composed of 3 or 4 figures followed by an optional file name.

Example : 001.mp3 or 0011 my file.mp3 or 0011.wav ....

The first 3 figures define the main file number. This number is the number called in the configuration file of GPS coordinates - See related chapter.

The main file number is between 001 and 999.

Each of the files to be broadcast in relation to a GPS position is identified by its main file number, made of

3 figures between 001 and 999. These 3 meaningful digits may be followed or not by a chosen name.

Extensions «.mp3» or «.wav» define the audio file format.

® Waves System

V 1.0 - 2008

I.D. AL - GeoPlayer - MP3 and WAV Player with GPS function - Manual

For any one given GPS location, it is possible to broadcast a series of audio files, i.e. up to 10 files. A subnumber is then added to the main file number to specify the broadcast order of the messages.

The sub-number is between 0 and 9.

Example : when the GeoPlayer reaches a given location, you could broadcast an introduction jingle, an information message, an advert and an end jingle.

To achieve this scenario, you need to create 4 files with the same main file number and 4 different subnumbers to define the sequence order in which the files will be played back:

0010 introduction jingle.mp3

0011 information message.mp3

0012 advert.wav

0013 end jingle.mp3

- The main file number is 001

- The sub-numbers are 0 to 3. Files are read in this order.

- Every file includes an optional name followed by the extension defining its format.

Both mp3 and wav files can be played.

Note : Files are broadcast in sub-numbers order but they do not have to be consecutive numbers:

0012.mp3

0015.mp3

0018.mp3

- The main file number is 001

- The sub-numbers are 2, 5, 8. Files will be read in this order.

Other example:

When a tourist train reaches each GPS location, information are broadcast in various languages. The sub-numbers specifies the broadcast order of each language.

0050 French.mp3

0051 English.mp3

0052 German.mp3

- The main file number is 005

- The sub-numbers are 0, 1, 2. Files will be read in this order.

Note : the fourth number is only necessary if several files need to be broadcast.

5 - GPS configuration file

The GeoPlayer broadcasts audio files in relation to geographical locations. The integrated GPS sensor, permanently compares the player’s position with a pre-established table listing the points to be scrutenized.

The Global Positioning System, known as GPS, is presently the main international satellites positioning system. It uses the geodesic system WGS 84 and is based on calculation of the distance between the sensor and several satellites. Data necessary to calculate position of 31 satellites are regularly transmitted to the sensor which is able to work out the coordinates.

Each point of interest is identified by the following data:

- Latitude

- Longitude

- Tolerance around the point

- Main number of the triggered file

- Trigger mode

Maximum number of files = 150

Latitude et longitude

Latitude and longitude are the coordinates of a desired trigger point. They can be obtained using a GPS device, a software such as Route 66 or via internet services such as GoogleMaps...

Several formats are used to indicate latitudes and longitudes. The most common are:

- degrees (°), minutes ('), seconds, decimal - DMSd (often used in mobile GPS devices)

- degrees (°) decimal - Dd (often used in cartography software)

The GeoPlayer uses the degrees decimal Dd format.

Tolerance:

For each point, a tolerance expressed in metres can be specified. This tolerance forms a square around the point and its choice is very important. The tolerance depends on the moving speed and on the size of the detection area. If the area is too small, there is a risk of not triggering the point. If it is too large, the audio file could be triggered too early.

It is important to understand that the GPS sensor updates its coordinates every second. At high speed, a big distance is covered in one second.

Example :

On foot - about 5km/h which is 1m/s

Slow vehicle - at 20km/h which is 6m/s

Fast vehicle - at 60km/h which is 17m/s

Very fast vehicle - at 100km/h which is 28m/s

The precision of the GPS sensor is about 5 m. Nevetheless, we advise not to specify a too small tolerance to obtain a reliable trigger. The maximum tolerance is 1000m (1km).

V 1.0 - 2008

I.D. AL - GeoPlayer - MP3 and WAV Player with GPS function - Manual

Main file number for the triggered file

One or several audio files are associated to each location. The files to be broadcast are stored on the SD card in the «GPS» directory. (see chapter 4 for details).

File numbers are between 001 and 999

Several GPS locations may call the same audio file(s) ; it is possible to listen to the same message at different locations.

Trigger mode

Depending on applications and vehicles, the way audio files are triggered may vary.

Three trigger modes are available on the GeoPlayer:

1 - Track mode

2 - Alarm mode

3 - Free tour mode

●

1 - Track mode

Use this mode to trigger the various positions one after the other in a defined sequential order. Define the complete track and the sequence of selected positions. The player is only watching one point at a time and will move to the next one once the current position has been triggered.

In this mode, it is possible to pass twice by the same point at different times, for example for return journeys or crossroads, and play a different messages each time.

If a problem occurs, a detour or no trigger for some reason, it is possible to force trigger of a point manually by using the input contact of the player, by connecting a push button for example.

●

2 - Alarm mode

Use this mode when it is necessary to watch positions in no specific order and broadcast the associated audio files. The message will loop as long as the player stays in the GPS position, including the tolerance.

The Alarm mode has priority over the Track mode. Typical use is to warn about danger in a specific zone.

●

3 - Free tour mode

Use this mode to broadcast messages during a tour without any pre-defined sequence order. All the positions are constantly watched. In this mode, it is not possible to broadcast different messages for a same position (round trip situation) ; to achieve this scenario, the Track mode must be used.

Note : It is possible to use different modes in a trip. Locations specified in Alarm mode are permanently watched when only one point at a time is watched in Free tour mode. The next location will only be triggered once the current location has been played.

5.1 Creation of the configuration file «gps.csv»

For the GeoPlayer to broadcast audio files associated to GPS positions, it is necessary to create a configuration file which is a cross reference table between the audio files and the GPS data.

The table includes the following data: latitude and longitude of the position, tolerance around the point, main audio file number to be broadcast, broadcast mode and optional comments.

Any spreadsheet can be used to create this configuration file, Excel type or Open Office equivalent. An

ID-AL assistant is also available for download from the www.id-al.com web site.

Example of table:

Column A: Position number - maximum 150 points

Column B: Latitude in Degree/decimal format - Dd (use a dot, not a coma, as separator)

Column C: Longitude in Degree/decimal format - Dd (use a dot, not a coma, as separator)

Column D: Tolerance in meters (whole number, no decimal)

Column E: Trigger Mode 1 - Track / 2 - Alarm / 3 - Free tour

Column F: Main audio file number to be read (see chapter 4) - 3 digits mandatory (text format)

Column G: Optional comments

Important notes in creating the configuration file:

- Do not add any column - Do not modify their order

- Do not add any line - no extra header, no empty line nor additional line at the end of the table

- Latitudes and longitudes stated in degree/decimal format

- Do not include units of measure nor symbols (m, km, °, ‘, ...) ONLY values

- It is possible to indicate different trigger modes. The broadcast order is defined by the Track mode order

(the 2 other modes have no order). It is easier to put together locations with the same trigger mode.

- The point number (column A) is only an indication and any figure can be used. The sequence of

broadcast is defined by the line number of the table.

After saving the completed table, export it a «csv» file. This is a text format supported by most spreadsheet software. In the file menu, choose «save as» and select format «csv separated by semicolon (;)».

Save this file under «gps.csv» and copy it at the root of the SD card. Do not change the name

«gps.csv».
