Selecting Channels
All channels logged by DriftBox appear in the data window; all except speed are initially
greyed out, but the data can still be seen. To enable a particular channel and make it
visible in the Graph window, click in the tick box to the left of the channel name. For
example, to display lateral acceleration:
Click here to
turn the channel
on or off
DriftBoxTools will automatically scale the channel to its minimum and maximum values
and show it in the graph window. The enabled channel will then be highlighted in its
display colour.
The data table contains all of the logged channels from the DriftBox file plus Lateral and
Longitudinal Acceleration and Radius of Turn channels, calculated when the file is first
loaded. Scroll up and down the channel list to find the desired channel.
A channel can also be found by typing the first letter of the channel, for example
‘S’
for
Satellites, providing that the data table is the currently active window. If there is more than
one channel that starts with the same letter then press the key again until the software
stops on your desired channel.
Show Selected Channels Only
The data table channel list can be reduced to show only the ticked channels, as in the
example above, by clicking the right mouse button when the mouse pointer is in the data
table, then selecting ‘Show Selected Channels Only’. This is very useful when you are
moving the cursor through the graph window and wish to see the displayed channels data
at the cursor point.
