Capabilities

Extreme flexibility comes with a powerful processor and a wealth of inputs and outputs.

Inputs and outputs

• 7 dedicated analog input channels
  • Measure sensors or receive input from other devices...

• 3 dedicated frequency input channels
  • Measure RPM, wheel speed, anything with a measurable interval. One channel is optically isolated for direct connection to ignition coil.

• 4 configurable analog,digital or frequency output channels
  • Control other systems or even over-ride OEM sensors

• 3 configurable digital channels, configurable for input or output
  • Receive input from switches; or configure as output and use to activate accessories or drive indicator lamps

• Input for precision 3 channel accelerometer (+/- 2G per axis)
  • Measure and log 3-D G-Force in realtime with one of the industry's most accurate and precise accelerometers!

• GPS module input
  • Add an external GPS module for course mapping

• Auxiliary serial expansion port
  • Interface to future interactive dash/display

Logging

• SD Memory card slot for data acquisition
  • Store up to 2GB of logging data

Power

• Powerful 48MHz 32 bit ARM processor
  • Enough power for high frequency logging and running complex, user-defined logic

Mechanical

• Compact, rugged design with good looks
• Easy to use screw terminal block for wiring
• On-board 'action' switch to start/stop logging (or other use)
• On-board Status LEDs

Flexibility

Unprecedented ability to customize logging and define behavior for user-outputs.

• Customize logging channels and frequency
• Control outputs based on the logic YOU define
• Powerful PC software to customize, view and analyze data

The Intangibles

• Far more than a data-logging system; the combination of a powerful processor with inputs and outputs allows this system to be used for many different applications!
• Share configurations, tips and ideas with our online community
• Open development process, frequent software updates and end-user customizable!
