Precaution when operation in coordination with the ignition switch
If the ignition switch (LAPCOM main unit) is turned off while logging is in progress, the
logging data will be damaged. Therefore use both
1 and 2 below in order to prevent this
from occurring.
1.
Setting logging automatic end (parameters 7-1, 7-2, 7-3)
It is necessary to set so that logging is ended before the vehicle enters the pit and the
ignition switch (LAPCOM main unit) is turned off.
Or, press the CLEAR key to end logging manually.

Operating in combination with a charged battery
At the instant when the ignition switch is turned off, the Lapcom main unit power
