Your MyChron5 comes with the information about a good number of kart tracks
already available in it.
Our technicians are constantly working to upgrade the database, and new releases
of it are freely downloadable using the Race Studio 3 software.
If you need to upgrade the track information in the gauge, please refer to chapter 9.
After selecting the Tracks icon, you enter into the Track Selection Menu:
MyChron5 offers two selection modes:
n
Automatic: MyChron5
automatically recognizes the track in
which you are running, gets the
coordinates of the starting line and,
eventually, of the magnetic strips and
is ready for calculating lap and split
times without the magnetic/optical
receiver.
This mode is to be preferred most of
the times.
n
Manual: Allows you to select the
desired track from the internal data-
base.
The manual mode is to be preferred
when there are different track
configurations nearby.
In this case, the MyChron5 would
anyway understand in which circuit
you are racing, but it would require at
least one lap. If you wish to have
everything set from the first lap, the
manual mode will help you.
If you select the manual mode, you
h
ave to select the track. Click on Track
Selection, and this page will appear:

MYCHRON5
The GPS receiver inside your MyChron5 is very useful for a good amount of reasons:
n
Lap Time calculation
n
Speed calculation
n
Predictive lap time calculation
n
Position on the track analysis
n
Lateral g-force calculation
Clearly, for a proper calculation of these information, the system needs to have some
information about the track:
n
coordinates of the starting line
n
coordinates of the eventual magnetic strips
n
length of the track
