Wondering if anyone knows any use for the files generated on an SD card inserted in the NAV unit when you set "Logging" on in the Factory Setup Screen (HCH 2006). To get in the screen hold "MAP" "MENUE" and "CANCEL" down together for a few sec. Every time the engine is started a new file is generated with a name similar to this:

060929_0049.vpl

The 1st 6 digits are the date. Viewing the file in WinXP in Notepad the 1st 6 lines of the file read:

41BCA9151A1902114415
22C0A341
1D1D
84FFEC0003000195
24FF3800240001C6
490000000049

And it keeps going like this for pages. I would love to be able to extract GPS or milage data from these files for writing off travel. I've called American Honda, Alpine, my dealer etc. No answers.

Anyone have any ideas?
