I have been searching all the forums yet I am unable to find any scripts for GPS location emails.
I have a GPS on serial0 and would love to setup a script to email its position each day at 7am?
So far I am able to create a file called “gps.txt” with the lat and longs from the GPS.
Could someone help me with sending that file in a email once every 24 hours with the heading of the email the identity of the radio…
Please can anyone help…?
Cheers
First you should insure your router is set correctly to send email. Set the server and from address in “/tool e-mail”. Then try a test.
/tool e-mail
send to=me@mydomain.com subject=“GPS test” body=“GPS test” file=gps.txt
Then you can enter the same line in a script. Schedule it to run every 24 hours.
Thanks Tim, that worked a treat…
Anyone know how to import this automatically to google maps or google earth ???
