There is a maximum and minimum.

eg if you are heading north you might want a range of 300 to 60 (assuming it can handle going negative)

heading south you may want 120 to 240.

Compass = 0 to 360 degrees.

Thanks Enforcer, thanks Blue,
So , if i understand my line is ok with a min=300 and a max=60 ?

You should get a MAP and look at the direction you'll be going through the road and use that direction to set the min/max parameters.

If you're using it for RADAR purposes only, then I'd leave them blank as you probably want to be warned when getting close to the radar (independent of the direction you're going):

44.812837,-0.555668,,,500,M,"RADAR_FIXE_30"

Firstly , i have tested without min and max , and it gpsexec give me all radar around 500M, not only the radar who are on the road !

that's exactly right, without a min/max it will give you ANYTHING that is within 500M radius. If you want to be more specific, you'll either need to specify a direction that matches the direction of the specific road OR reduce 500M to a smaller number.

Guino, is there any chance to add a Indicator, so we can track on RR if GPSEXEC is running?

B71,16,108,101,93,"GPSEXEC||SWITCHBUTTON;1>>CloseW indow;GPSExec||SETIND;!muteRadars;OFF||SWITCHBUTTO N;1",""
I71,16,108,101,94,"!muteRadars:b

This function staRt or OFF gpsexec and flash button.

But I can´t be sure that the GPSEXEC still working, that´s why an indicator can be useful

Not to my knowledge, but the songs scrolling stutters slightly when GPSexec is activated, it can be an indication.

I have added an indicator into the cool Gpsexec plugin .

With this version, when Gpsexec is loaded ,

1-A !Gpsexec indicator is put ON.
2-A 'GPSEXECEVENT' command is send when GPSExec is launched

Please add a !Gpsexec into your screens as:
I,528,33,39,33,"!GPSEXEC:b",300,500

If you want to put off the indicator and to quit GpsExec, just use the command
CLOSEWINDOW;GPSExec||setind;!gpsexec;off

Just an issue, i have not found how to have an icon into the task bar

See the post #78

Good use

First, thanks for the efforts, Are there any other changes besides the indicator and start event?
