Measuring Lap Times - Racelogic VBOX Mini User Manual

09 - VBOX Mini Laptiming Mode
VBOX Mini units can be used to measure lap times by storing the position of a virtual gate and using this to trigger the
start and end of a lap. Further locations can be added to represent split and dedicated finish lines.
• Start/Finish Line: Defines the point at which one lap ends and another starts. It also defines the start of a test that
ends in a different location, such as a sprint or slalom stage.
• Split Line: Defines a point on the track or stage at which intermediate time and speed measurements are
displayed.
• Finish Line: Used only in point-to-point tests (such as sprint or slalom tests), to mark a finish point that is in a
different location to the start point.

Measuring Lap times

There are two ways of measuring lap times as you drive round a circuit: by setting the start/finish and split points through
the VBOXMini menu screens, or by using the 'Simple Lap Timing' option. The latter is useful if the user is in a situation
where several button presses are difficult to achieve, such as during a qualifying run.
Simple Lap Timing
This method of lap timing requires just one button push to set up a start/finish line. With the VBOXMini in Lap Timing
mode, press either the up or down arrow key as you drive over the desired start/finish point. The screen will then display
the following message:
