UPLOADING AND VIEWING YOUR RECORDING 

(SD MEMORY CARD METHOD) 

 

Once you have taken a recording you will want to view your data. The V300SD recorder uses a SD Memory Card 

and  the  Racepak  DataLink  II  program  to  transfer  the  recorded  data  to  your  computer.  Follow  the  instructions  outlined 
below to upload data from the SD memory card to your PC: 

Step 1: 

Remove the SD memory card from the V300SD and place it in the SD memory card reader that is 

connected to your PC. 

Step 2: 

Next, 

click the New Upload icon 

at the top of the toolbar. 

Step 

 

3: 

 

The  Select  Configuration  box  will  appear. 

Select 

 

configuration 

 

for  your  recorder.  For  example: 

V300SD-1001.  This  number  is  a  combination  of  the  type  of  recorder  you  have  (V300SD)  and  your  recorder’s 
serial number (a four digit number, such as 1001). The Open dialog box will appear. 

For users with the generic 

V300SD, select the generic version from the list below.

Note: 

The first time you attempt to upload data you will need to select the memory card reader drive. To do this 

click on the drop down arrow at the right side of the Look in: window

 

and then from the drop down menu click on 

the drive labeled Racepak_SD as shown in the picture below. 

Step  4: 

Now you should be able to see the data files that were recorded by your V300SD. The first file recorded 

will be named 1.ddf, the second file 2.ddf, the third file 3.ddf and so on. If you would like to see the time and date 
the data files were created you will need to click on the Details icon (shown at left) in the upper right corner.
