Measurement And Adjustable Variables; Macros - Porsche 911 GT3 Cup 2008 Technical Handbook

Measurement and adjustable variables:

Macros:

Measured values, parameters and indices can be represented in a
display. A maximum of 20 measured or adjustable variables can be
displayed or 10 measures and 10 adjustable variables.
The parameter and graph values are displayed in the adjustable fields.
The corresponding calibration points are displayed to the right-hand
side of the graphs. The calibration points cannot be modified. Individual
values in the graphs can be displayed and changed by clicking the
arrow. Jumping directly to any calibration point can be made by double-
clicking the calibration point value, entering the desired calibration point
and pressing the RETURN key.
The measured variables have a grey background and the adjustable
values a white background. The name of the variable is in the
foreground, and the units are displayed behind the actual value.
Supplementary information (full description of variable) about the
measured or adjustable variables is super-imposed when the mouse
pointer hovers over a field.
The adjustable field are activated by mouse click; the entry of
numbered values is made with the keyboard. Decimal numbers are
entered with a decimal point, negative signs are entered with the
'minus' key after having entered the number. Every value must be
confirmed by pressing the 'RETURN' key.
If adjustable variables are changed the SAVE button glows red. The
changed values are transferred to the control unit's reference page by
clicking the SAVE button. When data is being transferred the KIC-button
changes colour to red. When the data transfer is finished the colour of
the SAVE button changes to grey again, and the KIC-button to green.
The connection to the control unit can now be interrupted without data
loss.
The user can start a macro sequence by mouse click. If a macro is
started adjustable variables are set to pre-defined values.
