04 - VBOX Mini Data Logging
Providing that you have
t
hen it will be capable of logging data to an SD card.
Using the SD card
The VBOX Mini will only work with SD and SDHC hardware, which must be formatted in FAT (less than 2GB) or FAT32
(over 2GB).
NOTE : Only firmware version 3.0.56 and above supports FAT32 format cards. Please ensure that the VBOX Mini
is running this version (or higher) if SD cards over 2 GB in size are to be used. Versions older than this will not
detect or log data to FAT32 SD cards.
Files logged by VBOX Mini units are named ‘VBOX_001.dbn’ where 001 increments when a new file is created. A new
file is created every time the unit is powered up, or when the card is re-inserted. If you wish to log data to the SD card
then simply insert the card into the slot in the front of the unit. The VBOX Mini will log vehicle position, speed and
acceleration into a binary ‘.dbn’ file which can be opened in VBOX Tools software for analysis. This data is logged when
velocity is above 0.5 km/h.
The VBOX Mini has two logging modes, selectable through the
SETUP
menu available from any screen.
•
ONLY WHEN MOVING:
In this mode data is only logged to an SD card (.DBN file) whilst the Speed is greater than
0.5km/h.
Only ever remove the SD card when you are stationary, otherwise you will risk losing data or corrupting the
card (which would require a re-format)
.
•
CONTINUOUS:
In this mode data is logged to the SD card (.DBN file) regardless of Speed or satellite reception
Before removing the SD card, the data-logging process must be stopped by pressing the MENU button,
which ends the writing of data to the card and closes the current file.
