VBOX Configuration Base Station A static Base Station must be used for the VBOX to gain the RTK 2 cm positional accuracy. This is required for the lane survey as well as during testing. Moving Base cannot be used because a static Base Station is the only way to create a reference to a static location, which then allows measurement to other static objects like lane edges.

VBOX File Processor - Park Assist VBOX File Processor Parking Plugin is designed to meet ISO regulation 204/WG14 ISO16787 ‘Assisted Parking Systems (APS) — parking with reference to other parked vehicles’. Requirements Input source files must contain true heading information in order to be compatible. This means that the Parking Assist plugin will work with files from VB3i SL RTK units only.
Page 147
Parking assist can be used to create any virtual 3 sided parking bay, for use with reverse or parallel parking tests. A bay must be configured from 3 separate files that have to be plotted by the user. The user cannot create a bay from a single logged file. https://racelogic.support/ Powered by 01VBOX_Automotive/...
Page 148
Input files can be .vbo (VBOX), .vbc (lane departure), or .dbn (PB/DB/VBM). When a file with more than two position points is loaded, parking assist plugin will produce a line of best fit through the position points within the loaded file. This ensures the bay sides are straight.

The vehicle measurement points section allows the user to configure required vehicle measurement points. There is no limit to the number of vehicle measurement points that can be set. Points should be measured from the primary antenna as shown below. https://racelogic.support/ Powered by 01VBOX_Automotive/...
Page 151
(i.e. p1) is referencing in the processed result. Each configured point will produce 5 range channels, two relative to entry points, and three relative to the bay sides. https://racelogic.support/ Powered by 01VBOX_Automotive/...
Page 152
Two measurements in relation to the bay side entrance points will exist for every vehicle measurement point. For example, the p1_e2 measurement is the distance between the second entry point and the first defined vehicle measurement point. https://racelogic.support/ Powered by 01VBOX_Automotive/ ADAS_Applications/ ADAS_User_Manual/...
Page 153
If the vehicle is outside of the configured bay, the bay side range measurements are calculated to the closest bay side point (i.e. the entrance point). Note: As all range values are absolute values, they have no signing. https://racelogic.support/ Powered by 01VBOX_Automotive/ ADAS_Applications/ ADAS_User_Manual/...
Page 154
Prior to processing the files, the user is able to alter what channels are processed, along with changing the naming conventions to make them suit their own needs. Licensing All process blocks within VBOX File Processor are free of charge. However, ADAS plugins require 'free' registration. https://racelogic.support/ Powered by...
