OBDKey is a match-box sized portable scan tool used to quickly and easily diagnose vehicle problems. Only scan tools may be used to access these diagnostic trouble codes.
RACE CHRONO PLUS CODE
A Diagnostic Trouble Code number is the method by which the ECU reports a problem with the vehicle. While driving, if the vehicle’s onboard computer system detects a problem the computer reports the error using a Diagnostic Trouble Code. Today’s car contains numerous onboard electronic control units (ECU's) which are advanced computers responsible for engine management, transmission, anti-lock brakes and many other functions too.Įach ECU relies upon a variety of sensors to monitor vehicle operation such as speed, engine RPM, coolant temperature, and oxygen sensors. Modern vehicles rely on computers to control and monitor all aspects of the vehicle's operation.

OBD-II is a standard enforced on vehicle manufacturers to allow access to On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) information. However, this does not mean that your TouchScreen unit will not become detached in an accident and we advise using a secondary method of securing the unit such as a cable tie around the body. In our experience using 3M Dual Lock tape to mount lap timers, we have never had it fail. See below to view a pic of one of our custom mounts. The 3M Dual Lock tape, supplied with the timer, can the be applied to the mount so that the lap timer can be easily fitted and removed. With not much more than a drill, hammer, hack saw, vice and screwdriver, a custom mount can be easily manufactured from a piece of 2mm plate aluminium by cutting and bending the aluminium into a flat support that can be mounted (screwed) to a motorcycle's stay bracket (dash bracket). How do I make a custom mount for a road race/track bike? Some suggestions are: forward on the tank, the top triple clamp, on or near the dash, on a custom mount. Where do I mount my TouchScreen unit on a race/track bike?Ī TouchScreen unit should be mounted in an area on the bike that is flat and in a position where you can still see the screen when riding. Poor weather, such as overcast skies and rain can have an effect on GPS signal levels but these effects are generally negligible and do not make much difference to timing accuracy. Under normal conditions (correct mounting of GPS receiver with no obstructions to clear sky) the Racechrono system will achieve a timing accuracy of +/.

RaceChrono uses GPS positioning to acquire data about your speed and position, which it then uses to calculate your lap times, splits, Hi/Lo speeds etc. We'd much rather take the time make sure you are properly informed and happy with our product than have you waste time trying to figure it out at the track.ĭoes the RaceChrono TouchScreen Lap Timer require the use of a trackside transponder?
