    The M 60 provides diverse analog inputs which allows the direct connection of a multipli- city number of sensors. 5.1.1 Analog Inputs The M 60 analog inputs accept an input signal of 0 to 5 V. A 3.01 kOhm pull-up resistor can be activated by software. 5.1.2 Digital Inputs The digital inputs of the M 60 accept 0 V to 5 V signals of Hall-effect sensors by default.

  • Page 16: Starting Up

    7 | Starting up 7 Starting up The following chapter explains what you have to do before starting the M 60 and how to connect it to RaceCon. 7.1 Before Starting Install the software required for M 60 operation. It is developed for Windows 2000/XP/ Vista/7.

  • Page 17: Starting The M 60

    RaceCon is an all integrated software tool for configuration and calibration of Bosch Mo- torsport hardware products. It is used to set up, configure and calibrate the M 60. For better understanding, Bosch Motorsport offers a video tutorial that explains many functions of RaceCon.
  • Page 18 7 | Starting up Start the RaceCon software. 18 / 104 Modular Sensor Interface M 60 Bosch Motorsport...
  • Page 19 Starting up | 7 In the ‘File’ menu select ‘New’ to create a new project. In the Toolbox select the M 60 and drag it into the Main Area. A pop-up window to specify the M 60 program archive appears.
  • Page 20 Click ‘Next’. Select location of M 60. Click ‘Finish’. The M 60 is inserted into the project and RaceCon tries to connect to the device. Repeat the bespoken procedure for every additional M 60. If you are starting with a new delivered M 60 you once-only need to assign the mountain location(s).

  • Page 21: Assign The Mounting Location

    The download starts and the M 60 carries out a reset. After the reset RaceCon reconnects to the M 60. Local configuration on both the PC and M 60 match (indicated by green background and dot). The M 60 is now connected to RaceCon.
  • Page 22 In the Project Tree right click on the project name e.g. ‘New Project’ and then select ‘Show discovered devices…’. All connected M 60 are listed. Compare the listed device Type, FNumber and SNumber to the identification plate to identify the device you want to make changes to: 22 / 104...
  • Page 23 It is good practice to physically label the M 60 with its mounting location. Now the device is ready to be used. A different coloring of the M 60 is used to indicate that the device is already con- figured in the currently loaded RaceCon project or not (white/orange).

  • Page 24: Feature Activation

    – The feature activation status is stored permanently in the device and requires activat- ing once only. – As the activation key is device specific, a key delivered with one M 60 does not work on any other M 60.
  • Page 25 The feature’s status changes to ‘unlocked’. Perform these steps to activate other features you purchased. Switch the car’s ignition off and on again to cycle the power of the M 60. Bosch Motorsport Modular Sensor Interface M 60...

  • Page 30 – When ‘p_br_front’ rises to 40, the If-condition changes to TRUE again and triggers the THEN-condition. Now the reset value (10) is used for ‘p_br_front_mx’ in the THEN- condition. – Because 40 is bigger than 10 the new value of ‘p_br_front_mx’ is 40. 30 / 104 Modular Sensor Interface M 60 Bosch Motorsport...
