Introduction

Parts in the Kit

In the kit you will receive:

  • ShiftX3
  • 2 #6 screws for surface mounting

Shiftx3 3quarter.jpg

Dimensions

  • ShiftX3 with enclosure 136 x 32 x 9.46 mm (5.35 x 1.26 x .37 inches)

Connection and Installation

Mounting ShiftX3

Attach ShiftX3 with the mounting screws and tighten until snug.

Integration with RaceCapture/Pro and RaceCapture/Track MK2

Suggested parts (included with the optional CAN hub accessory pack)

  • RJ45 Splitter
  • RJ45 network cable

OBDII Cable integration

OBDII installation is plug and play:

  • Plug the CAN hub into RaceCapture
  • Plug the OBDII cable into the CAN hub
  • Plug the RJ45 cable into the CAN hub
  • Plug the other end of the RJ45 cable into ShiftX3

Non OBDII installation

  • Plug the CAN hub into RaceCapture
  • Plug the RJ45 cable into the CAN hub
  • Plug the other end of the RJ45 cable into ShiftX3
  • Prepare the RJ45 cable described below for power + ground and plug into the CAN hub
RJ45 power cable for ShiftX3

Start by snipping the RJ45 connector off the end of a patch cable, and then expose the individual wires.

If you just need power and ground, just use these connections and snip the others short.

Note: These color codes assume EIA-T568B RJ45 cable (check printing on the cable to confirm)

CAN Termination

CAN termination is enabled by default. To disable termination, cut the CAN Term jumper on the bottom of ShiftX3.

Powering and Connecting to RaceCapture

Scripts

The following scripts assume ShiftX3 is the first ShiftX3 on the bus (ADR1 jumper default setting). ShiftX3 is designed to work on the CAN2 network.

Disco Lights Demo

This is a test script that exercises all of the LEDs and the 7 segment display on ShiftX3. You can use this as a first time test, as it does not rely on any sensors.

Script

Copy and paste this entire script into the scripting window, replacing any existing script.

This script will randomly set LEDs with different colors, and the navigation buttons will cycle the display number up and down.

sxCan = 1
sxId=0

end

function sxOnBut(b, id)
  println('button: ' ..b ..' ' ..id)

Predictive Lap Timer Indicator

This script enables predictive lap time visualization.

How it works

A bar extends left or right from the center of the linear graph:

  • Green bar extending to the right indicates you're beating the best time
  • Red bar extending to the left means you're falling behind.
  • When you're close to the best time, the center blue LED illuminates.


Notes:

  • The script is designed for a +/- 10 second maximum delta - so if you're ahead or behind by 10 seconds, the linear graph will be fully illuminated center-right, or center-left.
  • You will need to complete a a full lap to train the predictive timer before the graph will update.

Boost Gauge

This script visualizes a single analog input channel on the linear graph.

How it works

The script configures the linear graph, then reads an analog channel and updates the graph with the current value. In this case, the value represents boost level measured from a MAP sensor.

Assumptions

  • MAP sensor channel is on the first Analog channel, and reads in KPa - typically 0-255. You can also connect this to the MAP reading on OBDII (PID 11)

Only Alerts

This script enables 3 alert channels:

  • Left alert for oil pressure
  • Right alert for engine temperature
  • Center alert for Air/Fuel ratio

How it works

The script configures the left and right alert indicators, then configures the center graph to visualize safe and dangerous AFR ranges. During operation, the analog channels for oil pressure and engine temperature are read and updates the alert indicators. The AFR channel is read and updates the linear graph.

ShiftX3 CAN bus API

Overview

The CAN bus API provides the configuration and control interface for ShiftX3.

Two styles of control are available:

  • Low level control of LEDs - the ability to discretely set LED color and flash behavior
  • High level control - configuring alert thresholds and linear graph up front, and then providing simple value updates

CAN Messages

CAN base ID

CAN base ID is 0xE3600 (931328)

Cutting the jumper ADR1 will add 256 to the base ID, allowing up to two ShiftX3 displays on the same CAN bus.

CAN Baud rate

500K and 1MB rates are supported.

500K is enabled by default; cut the jumper ADR2 on the bottom of ShiftX3 to enable 1MB.

Configuration / Runtime Options

1 Minor Version Firmware minor version number
2 Patch Version Firmware patch version number

Set Configuration Parameters Group 1

Sets various configuration options.

CAN ID: Base + 3

Offset What Value
0 Brightness 0 - 100; 1 = dimmest; 100 = brightest; 0 = automatic brightness control using built-in light sensor.
1 Automatic brightness scaling (Optional) 0-255; default=51. adjust this value to adjust the relative gain of the built-in light sensor when in automatic brightness mode.

Set Display

Directly sets the value of the 7 segment display.

CAN ID: Base + 50

Offset What Value
0 Digit index 0 (must be 0)
1 Character ASCII value of character to display

The value of the display is set by the ASCII coded value. To set a numeric value, offset the value by 48: e.g. 48 = 0, 49 = 1, etc.

Most alphanumeric characters are supported as well, also via ASCII representation.

Set Discrete LED

A low level function to directly set any LED on the device.

CAN ID: Base + 10

Offset What Value
0 LED index 0 -> # of LEDs on device
1 Number of LEDs to set 0 -> # of LEDs on device (0 = set all remaining)
2 Red 0 - 255
3 Green 0 - 255
4 Blue 0 - 255
5 Flash 0-10Hz (0 = full on)

Alert Indicators

Alert Indicators are typically single LEDs or a group of LEDs treated as one logical unit. This is defined by the hardware configuration of the device.

Set Alert

Directly set an alert indicator

CAN ID: Base + 20

Offset What Value
0 Alert ID 0 -> # of Alert indicators
1 Red 0 - 255
2 Green 0 - 255
3 Blue 0 - 255
4 Flash 0-10Hz (0 = full on)

Set Alert Threshold

Configures an alert threshold. Up to 5 thresholds can be configured per alert indicator.

Notes:

  • If the current value is greater than the last threshold, then the last threshold is selected.
  • The first threshold may have a threshold value >= 0; remaining thresholds must be > 0

CAN ID: Base + 21

Offset What Value
0 Alert ID 0 -> # of Alert indicators
1 Threshold ID 0 - 4
2 Threshold (low byte)
3 Threshold (high byte)
4 Red 0 - 255
5 Green 0 - 255
6 Blue 0 - 255
7 Flash Hz 0 - 10 (0 = full on)

Update Current Alert Value

Updates the current value for an alert indicator. The configured alert thresholds will be applied to the current value.

CAN ID: Base + 22

Offset What Value
0 Alert ID 0 -> # of Alert indicators
1 Value (low byte)
2 Value (high byte)

Linear Graph

The linear graph mode provides visualizations for common scenarios:

  • Sequential RPM shift light where the progression is stepped
  • Linear bar graph to linearly indicate a sensor value
  • Center left/right graph to indicate +/- performance against a reference - such as visualizing current predictive time vs best time

Power up default configuration

Upon power up the linear graph is configured:

  • Rendering style: left->right
  • Linear style: stepped
  • Low Range: 0
  • High Range: N/A
  • Threshold :
    • Threshold value: 3000 / segment length: 3 / color RGB: (0, 255, 0) / flash: 0
    • Threshold value: 5000 / segment length: 5 / color RGB: (0, 255, 255) / flash: 0
    • Threshold value: 7000 / segment length: 7 / color RGB: (255, 0, 0) / flash: 5

Configure Linear Graph

Configures the options for the linear graph portion of the device.

Rendering style:

  • If left->right, linear graph illuminates left to right
  • If centered, values below the mid-point in the range extend from the center to the left, and values above the mid-point extend from the center to the right.
  • If right->left, linear graph illuminates right to left

Linear style:

  • if smooth, graph length is updated smoothly by interpolating the current value in-between LEDs
  • If stepped, creates the visual effect of stepped progressions by setting the segment length of the threshold configuration. High Range of configuration is ignored.


CAN ID: Base + 40

Offset What Value
0 Rendering Style 0 = left->right, 1=center, 2=right->left
1 Linear Style 0 = Smooth / interpolated, 1 = stepped
2 Low Range (low byte)
3 Low Range (high byte)
4 High Range (low byte) (ignored if linear style = stepped)
5 High Range (high byte) (ignored if linear style = stepped)

Set Linear Graph Threshold

Configures a linear threshold. Up to 5 thresholds can be configured

Notes:

  • If the current value is greater than the last threshold, then the last threshold is selected.
  • The first threshold may have a threshold value >= 0; remaining thresholds must be > 0

CAN ID: Base + 41

Offset What Value
0 Threshold ID 0 - 4
1 Segment Length 0 -> # of LEDs on device (ignored if linear style is ‘smooth’)
