Hi Harry,
Push obviously has abandoned their customer support and I know this is no one's problem but the people who purchased their product.. but I was wondering if you or any others who deal with this kinda data could offer some advice with their file format so our data is salvageable?
Their file format opens easily with excel:
Example
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1LG6 ... VY3c1lfTDg
So I guess this just needs to be reorganized into a different format? If that's correct can anyone provide a starting point of what needs to happen?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I do not have access to the PUSH guys any more. I've sent several mails but haven't heard back for weeks. I assume the accounts are closed.
The format looks like it can be reverse engineered easily. However, the overall process is complex as we are talking about pulling the data from the device in addition. I do not see I can take the heritage for the device without having someone supporting it. I'm really sorry for everyone who invested in the PUSH gauge. I invested too.

P.S. I will move this thread to "outdated" as the topic is obsolete now.

Sorry, I don't understand
The data is easily accessible in that format right off the device. Even if they no longer support the device going forward, the files will still be created and able to be dragged off the device in their current form. Or there is more to it than that?

LapTimer does not access the PUSH gauge directly but downloads a GPX file provided on a PUSH server. This server is obviously not available any more. I assume it is possible to access data directly (PUSH's app did this), but I'm not the person to implement that. Anyone interested can join the new Developer Program (
viewtopic.php?f=11&t=4572) and add a script to read the data. I'm happy to support additional requirements not supported by the program yet.

If i export a gpx from Harry's of my last successful imported track day, is that what your app is expecting so I can show my friend?

When I export the GPX they are all just like a template and no data, with 1 KB sizes...
example of an exported session:
Code: Select all
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
<gpx
version="1.0"

That‘s strange, this is what I get when exporting a 9 lap session:
- D2610B76-45FA-48AA-B444-A0B4F3B80590.jpeg (309.21 KiB) Viewed 13605 times
Please try another format and check if you get content. There is probably an issue with your data.
