After a firmware update I am still getting the error regarding the invalid sample, but I did get two files logged when using a different memory card. I will Try to non-quick-format the old 1GB memory card and see if it works. If not, I'll stick with the larger card for now until I can test some othe...

Filewriter sample invalid

I'm trying to get logging working on my rcp mk2. I have an SD card inserted and I hit the logging button. The light starts flashing/blinking, but in the scripting log I get the following set of messages (not directly copy pasted): Logging started Filewriter.c: start Filewriter.c: ope...

Hi, Decimal minutes means the fractional part is decimal. Example: 2:30 would be 2.5 decimal minutes. Hope this helps! Yep, it does! But just to make it even clearer for others: The decimal value of the lap statistic is the equivalent of: x (sec) / 60 So to convert the decimal part to actual second...

Are you trying to send lap data via a CAN bus message? I'm not only trying to send lap data. I'm also trying to send other derivatives of lap data via CAN. This specific question is about how to / if it's possible to simulate the car moving so that the RCP will record lap information "on the b...

Still waiting for answers to some of my questions. I can use defined track start/stop points on my street to make a hillclimb-type course (Different start/finish) but I have no idea how or even if that will work for predictive timing -- it would require that the RCP remember time across power cycles...

I've found this script: https://wiki.autosportlabs.com/RaceCapturePro_Lua_Scripting_Examples#Simulating_Laps But I'm not sure that this script causes the lap statistics functions to work. Judging from the script's description it's used to help build dashboards for the app, but I need to develop dash...

not sure it's the best place to do it, due to jitter you would have to average out a few readings to calculate it reasonably
I'm curious why you wanted to implement this. I may have a similar need with integration with an AEM CD-7 dash.

lap statistics "decimal minutes/seconds"

Whether or not I can simulate lap data [1] I have a question about the lap statistics "decimal minutes/seconds" -- Is the output of the function a decimal number of seconds which will always be less than 59? In other words, is a value of 2.30 "two minutes and thirty seconds" or s...

Simulate lap data?

I am trying to program sending various lap data [1]. Doing this would be much easier if I could simulate laps. Is there a way to simulate lap data so that the various lap statistics [2] functions will do stuff? [1] https://forum.autosportlabs.com/viewtopic.php?t=6143 [2] https://wiki.autosportlabs.c...

Questions about various lap time values and sending over CAN

I have a RCP/MK2 integrated with an AEM CD-7. I have two routes I can go 1) The AEM dash can calculate all of the timing stuff on its own via GPS data. I can simulate AEM's GPS unit (already partially done -- https://gist.github.com/thoraxe/37b7e3c1316929cc3e3f29d8917b12d4#file-sc300-lua-L3-L67 ) bu...

Indeed. The guides have been woven into the individual product documentation, so that actually needs to go away. Thanks for pointing that out! I'm not sure I understand. The RaceCapture App version is independent from the hardware / product version. I have an RCP MK2 but I am using RaceCapture 1.12...

Newer / updated app user guide?

The current user guide seems to be very out of date.

CAN Mapping rate -- refresh/read rate or logging rate?

What does the "rate" field in the CAN mapping area do?

Does it set how often the value is attempted to be refreshed?
Or does it set how often the value is logged (when logging is active)?
