OP – Output value
This is the value of the variable as shown on a data display screen – i.e. the input
value is converted to user specified units and filtered using a rate of change filter
and a smoothing filter. On the Lite Monitor software this value would come
under user units. In the given example the value of speed is reported in miles per
hour (mph).
Note:
Some variable information, such as gear and lap timing information are
calculated on the DASH4PRO itself. Therefore, the frequency or rate information for
these variables is not displayed.

Starting and stopping a data logging on a Data Logger
from the DASH4PRO
When suitably connected and configured, the DASH4PRO can be used to start and stop
data recording on an attached logger. To enable one of the buttons on your DASH4PRO
display act as a start/stop logging switch follow the procedure described below: -
1.
Set up one of the buttons on your DASH4PRO to the Start/stop logging function as
described in the
Editing button functions
(page 18) section.
2.
Enter the DL1/DL2 configuration tool, and make sure that the "Decode serial data"
option is ticked. The Data Logger must be configured with this option ticked.
Without enabling the Decode Serial data option on the Data Logger the commands
from the DASH4PRO will be ignored.
Note:
from version 7 of the configuration tool, the Decode serial data option is
ticked as a default. In earlier versions of the software, the option will be labelled
"Enable GSM modem mode", and you will need to tick it yourself.
3.
Insert a correctly formatted compact flash card (in FAT16 format) into the Data
Logger.
4.
Press the start/stop logging button on the DASH4PRO.
Whenever it is pressed, a command will be sent to the Data Logger to start or stop
logging. If logging starts, the logging status pop-up window will appear and display
the “Logging Started” message on screen.
5.
If logging has started, you can stop data logging by pressing the start/stop logging
button on the DASH4PRO.
When logging stops the logging status pop-up window will appear and display the
“Logging Stopped” message on screen.
