Racelogic VBOX Touch, Getting Started

Logging Switch

It is also possible to control logging by using an RLVBACS010 hand-held latching trigger switch (unlatched for logging/
latched for not logging).

Continuous Logging Mode

should be selected when using the switch. It is connected to the 3

pin

Digital In and PPS Connector

on the side of the VBOX Touch.

When the trigger switch is connected and latched, it is not possible to use the

SD Card Icon

to manually start or stop

logging data.

Logged Channels

VBOX Touch logs channels to an inserted SD card within a

.vbo

file, channel information is available below:

•

Satellites

: This is the number of satellites in use.

•

Time

: This is UTC time since midnight in the form HHMMSS.SS.

•

Latitude

: Latitude in minutes MMMM.MMve = North e.g. 3169.30644410M = 52D, 49M, 18.4S.

•

Longitude

: Longitude in minutes MMMMM.MMve = West e.g. 00040.18164742M = 00D, 40M, 10.9S.
