Configuration of time measurement with a beacon device
Depending on the beacon system in place, the output of the receiver should be connected to an
analogue or digital input of the ADU device and an appropriate channel should be created.
The channel should be assigned in the Buttons panel in the Beacon input - channel field. When
the channel value changes from 0 to 1, the last lap time counter (last lap) will assume the value of
the lap time counter (lap time), which will be reset. If a lap time is better than the best lap time
(best lap), it will be changed. Additionally, the adu.track.lap channel will be increased by 1. Use
the Time object to display the above-mentioned times on the screen. To display the current lap
number, use the Text object and enter the adu.track.lap channel in the Channel field. If a beacon
system is in place, it is not possible to apply lap time prediction (predictive timing).
Configuration of time measurement with a GPS
A GPS module offers more possibilities than a beacon system. Based on GPS coordinates, the
ADU automatically detects the track you are currently on. The list of automatically detected tracks
is included in Appendix 1. If a track is not included in the list, you can add a track of your own (see
the Panels/User tracks chapter).
The ADU memory can store data from 20 tracks. The 8 best times are recorded, including their
date, time and maximum speed. You can display them using the Track record table object.
The best time from a given track is used as a reference time for the algorithm determining the
predicted lap time. It works such that for a given place on the track the current lap time is taken,
while for the remaining part of the track - the best lap time.
By displaying the Predictive time graph, you can check in real time if you have completed a given
part of the track faster or slower than during your best lap.
To reset a given track data you can use the Tools / Reset track data menu or connect a button
and assign it to the Reset track data channel function in the Buttons panel. We suggest that you
use a Hold-type trigger to prevent accidental data deletion.
To display the name of the track the car is currently on, use the Text object and enter $(TRACK) in
the text field.
IMPORTANT!
A GPS module must be installed using the rubber ant-vibration pads supplied
with it.
