11. GPS
The GPS Module, included in the MXG kit,
provides the following information
updated ten times per second:
n
Position (latitude, longitude, altitude)
n
Speed
n
Longitudinal acceleration
n
Lateral acceleration
In the case that MXG knows the finish line
of the track and the split coordinates, it can
calculate and show:
n
Lap Times
n
Split times
To transmit track information to MXG, use
the Track Manager feature, as explained in
the following section.
With Track Manager, you can update,
modify, transmit and receive to and from
MXG the coordinates of the finish line and
split points of all the tracks where you are
going to run.
When opening the software, if there is no
system connected to your PC via USB cable,
you will see the screen shown.
As you can see, the screen is divided into
two parts.
On the left you see the track list.
If available, you will see the track layout and
the type of vehicle that usually races on the
track: car, motorcycle or kart.
On the right side of the screen, you will find
a big picture of the track.
