Walkers Clock

A larg font watch, displays steps, can switch GPS on/off, displays grid reference

The watch works well with GPSsetup, the Activepedom or Widpedom wdigets. A tiny GPS power widget is waiting in the wings for when the v2.09 firware is released.

Features

  • Displays the time in large font
  • Uses BTN1 to select modeline display (eg battery status or switch between setting when in a function mode
  • Uses BTN3 to select the function mode (eg turn on/off GPS, or change GPS display)
    • two function menus at present GPS Power = On/Off GPS Display = Grid | Speed Alt when the modeline in CYAN use button BTN1 to switch between options
  • Display the current steps if one of the steps widgets is installed
  • Ensures that BTN2 requires a 1.5 second press in order to switch to the launcher this is so you dont accidently switch out of the GPS/watch display with you coat sleeve
  • Displays the timestamp of the last GPS fix when the GPS is on
  • Buzzes when the GPS aquires a positional satellite fix
  • Displays the current OS map grid reference in a large font
  • Displays the age of the current GPS position fix in seconds
  • Works in tandem with the GPS setup app so that you can reduce the power consumption of the GPS

BTN1 cycles the information line

  • By default the modeline is switched off
  • Click BTN1 once and display your steps (if one of the step widgets is installed)
  • Click BTN1 again and it will show battery % charge
  • Click BTN1 again and it will switch the modeline off

BTN2 Long press to start the launcher

BTN2 is confiured to respond to a 1.5 second press in order to switch to the launcher App. Simply press and hold until you hear a buzz and release. This avoids accidently switching out of the watch app when clothing catches it.

BTN3 cycles the function mode

  • Click BTN3 once and the GPS ON / OFF menu is displayed
  • If the GPS is OFF then pressing BTN1 will turn it ON
  • If the GPS is ON then Clicking BTN1 will turn it OFF

When the GPS is ON a second function menu can be displayed by pressing BTN3 again. This will show options to change the GPS display on the second line of the watch.

  • Grid - will display the GPS position converted to an OS Grid Ref
  • Speed - will display the GPS speed inforation supplied in the last GPS fix
  • Alt - will display the altitude information

Future Enhancements

  • Ability to turn on the heart rate monitor and display the rate on the info line
  • Maybe a simple stopwatch capability
