TrackStick II works anywhere around the planet. By exporting to the FREE Google Earth's Mapping program into a .KML file format, each travel location can be pinpointed using 3D mapping technology. The screen shots below are examples of exactly how the TrackStick II will reveal where it has been. Click on the thumbnail to enlarge any of the images below.

How it works
The TrackStick II receives signals from twenty four satellites orbiting the earth. With this information, the TrackStick II can precisely calculate its own position anywhere on the planet to within fifteen meters. Just make sure no metal blocks the Track Stick from seeing the satellites in the sky (Requirement for all GPS) GPS Signal cannot get through metal. Then once you have the information collected, plug it into the USB port of your computer and download your information. Attach it with a piece
Where it works
The TrackStick II will work anywhere on the planet Earth. Using the latest in GPS mapping technologies, your exact location can be shown on graphical maps and 3D satellite images.
The TrackStick's micro computer contains special mathematical algorithms, that can calculate how long you have been indoors. While visiting family, friends or even shopping, the Track Stick can accurately time and map each and every place that you have been
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Where is the best location to place the Track Stick in a vehicle?
GPS Signal cannot go thru metal so you have to be creative when putting the TrackStick in a vehicle. The best locations are in the front or rear dashboards with the embossed globe facing the sky is the best spot where the GPS can see the sky and have a direct line of sight to the satellites. If you want to be covert we suggest putting the TrackStick II (because it is small enough) in a magazine, stuffed animal, tissue box or umbrella. Then put it in the rear/front dashboard. Plastic, glass, cardboard for example will not block the signal. ONLY METAL. We have had success in getting a signal inside a glove box or under the dash without any metal between it and the sky, but the glove box has to be up toward the front of the windshield so it can see out the windshield. Finally, you can put the TrackStick inside of a Plastic Bumper the signal will go thru plastic, attach it with some Industrial Strength Velcro which actually works better than magnets.
Some customers have reported the Track Stick works fine under or between the car’s front seats but it is not recommended for reliable operation.
How do I turn the Track Stick’s power off?
With the On/Off Switch on the side of the Trackstick
What are the sensitivity adjustments on the device properties screen?
Motion: The motion setting is simply an invisible fence that the Track Stick uses as a reference to know when it is in motion. Increasing this area will make the Track Stick record less locations. Decreasing it will cause the Track Stick to record locations closer together.
GPS Wobble: This is used to adjust the sensitivity to motion when the Track Stick is not moving. Increasing this setting will delay the Track Stick response time when a person or vehicle begins to move again.
Will changing the recording interval save battery life?
The record interval is adjustable to anything in between 1 and 15 minutes. This is used to save memory and will not extend battery life.
How much data will the Track Stick II hold?
The TrackStick II can record 4000 records with Date, Time, Longitude, Latitude, Speed, Direction, Altitude and other information. When the Track Stick is not moving, memory is not used. The Track Stick can record months of travel history under normal use.
Why cant I plug the Track Stick in to the vehicles power?
The Track Stick is a “personal” location recorder and intended to be used in different vehicles and in different locations. It was not designed to be permanently installed in a vehicle.
How do I map all the Track Stick locations shown on the Track Stick manager?
Once you have installed Google Earth, open Google Earth, then simply hit the “Export to Google Earth” button at the top of the screen on the Trackstick Manager Software. “Pushpins” can be used for individual locations, “fly by” will show traveled routes.
Does the Track Stick make travel reports?
The Track Stick was designed to show all information on high resolution maps. Use the “export to html” feature to create a graphical report of location histories.
When I download the Track Stick history, the download bar and program freeze?
The Track Stick manager and Google Earth are high resolution programs and require a screen resolution of 1024 X 768 or higher. Readjust you computers screen resolution to these higher settings. Google Earth and the Track Stick Manager will not work in 800 X 600 screen resolution.
