Your TomTom was designed
to be a GPS and it does that pretty well. Several people,
however,
have written their own software that functions on the TomTom. Why not take advantage
of some of these unique programs...you may actually find some of them very useful!
UNINSTALL: To uninstall most of these 3rd party software programs you must manually delete each

INSTALL:
To install most of these 3rd party software programs, you
simply copy all the files and folders
directly
on to the root folder of your TomTom and then reboot the TomTom.
UNINSTALL: To uninstall most of these 3rd party software programs you must manually delete each
file and
folder that you copied above from the TomTom. I typically
keep the files and folders
used for each program in their own folder on my PC so that I can simply lookup which files and
folders were used for each program so that I have a reference guide when deleting them
from the TomTom.

9. EventLogger
- Event_Logger is a tracking and logging application enhancing TomTom GO as well as any all-in-one TomTom GPS device.
It can log TomTom GO events to Itinerary files that are managed by TomTom GO like native Itinerary files created
through the ordinary user interface; besides, Event_Logger can produce standard GPX XML files where events are
represented as waypoints and the whole route is logged through a sequence of track points obtained by querying TomTom
GO for location information at short periodical intervals; the produced tracking will result bound to the roads through the
assistance of both the TomTom GO mapping and the ASN feature (if active) in order to normalize tracking even without
proper GPS reception; other than this default process to produce snapped-to-road GPX tracks, an additional option allows
retrieving raw GPS data not intermediated by TomTom GO, useful for off-road tracking and also including altitude;
Itinerary records and GPX waypoints take account of boot, resume, suspend events and optionally other information
generated by manually tapping on the available (and extensible) logging menu icons. Other than generating Itinerary and
GPX files, Event_Logger can create POIs (Points of Interest) for each event (or for a configurable subset).
