RCP stimulator

RS232 serial output

The stimulator will output the current Analog channel data on the serial port, which can be read by the Aux Serial input of RaceCapture/Pro.

Baud Rate

Baud rate is 115200, 8N1

Format

The output format is CSV with the following columns:

Timestamp in milliseconds
Channel 1 value (0-10000)
Channel 2 value (0-10000)
Channel 3 value (0-10000)
Channel 4 value (0-10000)

Example Lua script to read serial data

--initialize Aux serial port to 115200, 8, N, 1
initSer(6, 115200, 8, 0, 1)

setTickRate(10)
function onTick()
 --read a line from the aux serial port with a 100ms timeout
 value = readSer(6, 100)
 if value ~= nil and value ~= '' then
  print('read value: ' ..value)
 end
end
