    If you are looking to purchase a new SD card, it is recommended that any card used has a write speed of above 7 MB/s (4 MB/s absolute minimum) and a speed class of 10 (4 absolute minimum). Racelogic recommends SD cards from quality brands such as Transcend, SanDisk, Kingston or Lexar to ensure the best results.
  • Page 3 The VBOX Touch unit is powered by a power cable that is unterminated so that you can make a bare-wire connection to a power supply.

    The placement of the GNSS antenna is crucial to the quality of the data recorded by VBOX Touch. Any metal close to a GNSS antenna can unpredictably disturb the signal due to interference from reflections of weak GNSS signals. https://en.racelogic.support//Product_Info/Performance_Meters/VBOX_Touch/VBOX_Touch_V1/ Quick_Start_Guides_%E2%80%93_VBOX_Touch_V1/Quick_Start_Guide_%E2%80%93_VBOX_Touch_V1%3A_Accel_Mode...
