1 Introduction EIVAStat is a small logging and statistics module for the NaviPac package. The program is started automatically, when NaviPac starts online. But whether EIVAStat starts logging automatic is user controlled, so its wisely to set it up first time, after that it can be left alone, and should run without any user interaction. EIVAStat is a .NET application and requires as such minimum .NET 2 Framework on the pc. This is normally offered as part of the install procedure

2 General When EIVAStat is started, it looks like below.

The Start, Switch and Stop indicates indirectly, what state its in. This furthermore gives the user a possibility to override start/stop of logging. When you start logging, a folder is created, where data from the NaviPac sensors are stored in ascii format. The files shown below are generated and appended to.     

GPSStatus.log Position.log Motion.log Heading.log Acquisition.log

When you switch or stop logging, a report of the logged data is created, showing various statistical data. Also the logged data are zipped into one zip archive.
