e) Enter factor to correct calculated consumption in device vs. ‘real’ consumption of
vehicle, if required.
f) Choose method to calculate remaining laps with fuel in tank, if desired:
– using fuel consumption of last lap completed
– using target lap consumption (entered in the field ‘Target lap consumption’)
g) Choose values to initiate a reset of fuel consumption, if desired:
– Manually using RaceCon
– On ‘power down’ (assuming that the tank is filled each time the ignition is turned off)
– By signal source as input channel (e.g. a switch connected to input pin)
