Saving start / finish and Split Lines

After creating start / finish, Splits or Finish lines you can save them to a file on the SD card which
can be loaded back into PerformanceBox at a later stage, or used in the VBox Tools software. The
file created is called DBOX.DSF and is saved into the 'DATA' directory on the SD card. If a
DBOX.DSF already exists the file will not be created; this is to prevent existing start and split lines
being accidentally overwritten.
To Save the lines you have created:
1. Ensure the SD card is inserted.
2. Press the MENU button to enter the Lap timing menu.
3. Highlight the SAVE SPLITS option and press OK

Loading start / finish and split Lines

You can load start and split line information from a file stored on the SD card into your
PerformanceBox. By default the PerformanceBox looks for a file it has saved out; DBOX.DSF in
the 'DATA' directory. If no DBOX.DSF file is found the PerformanceBox will look for a 'DSF'
directory and display a list of all *.DSF files in that directory. This facility allows you to keep a
library of split lines files on the PerformanceBox from multiple test areas or circuits.
To Load a split line file:
1. Press the MENU button to enter the Lap timing menu.
2. Highlight the 'LOAD SPLITS' option and press OK

Clearing start / finish and split Lines

This option will erase the split line information from the PerformanceBox memory, not from the SD
card. Split line information remains in the PerformanceBox memory until they are either cleared or
re-entered, even if the unit is power cycled.
1. Press the MENU button to enter the Lap timing menu.
2. Highlight the 'CLEAR ALL' option and press OK

Recording and Reviewing Lap and Split Times

To record your run data and lap and split times, simply insert a SD card into PerformanceBox, the
run data will be recorded in a '.dbn' file on the SD card and the Lap Time information will be
recorded in a text file e.g. 'Laps-01'.txt'
