GPS Data Logger Software - BT747

Norman Chang Is Super Man ^-^, or that is at least what the firmware of the Gisteq Phototrackr - alias the Wonde Proud BT-CD110 - claims in its firmware.

It is surely one of these practical jokes that engineers pull to make sure they leave a mark in the product they helped build.

More seriously, I've been working on adding support for that device and in the process of doing so, I build a virtual model of the device.  Using a virtual serial loopback, I am able to connect BT747 to it.  That way I can test BT747 without having to connect the real device.  That is quite handy when developing code.  There is no risk of breaking the device and I can let things go wrong on purpose.  It is specifically handy because I do not own a Wonde Proud device.

Because I can connect the BT747 application, I can also connect the official Gisteq application.  It did indeed discover that there was a device connected.  However, the firmware was too old and a firmware update was proposed.  I accepted.  The erase procedure was initiated and then the new firmware was sent.  I couldn't help notice the identification of Super Man which is mentioned twice in the code - probably just to make sure ;-).

Hopefully I can discover some more interesting stuff like how to configure the device in its other settings.
