External V-Net Sensor Connection (optional add ons)
When installing any optional additional sensors to the IQ3 Street Logger Dash, it will utilize the Racepak V-
Net (CAN bus) for input. These added sensors are connected using “stackable” modules that connect to the
round 5 pin V-Net port on the rear of the dash. This design provides the ability to transmit all sensor data
through a single cable by use of these “stacking” modules. A cap is then placed at the end of the “stack” to
terminate the system. The modules are typically available with sensors in kit form. Extension cables are
available in a variety of lengths to connect multiple “stacks” of modules that may be installed in different
locations throughout the vehicle.
To add sensors, the customer simply measures from the IQ3 Street Logger Dash to the mounting location of
the “stackable” module or modules, and orders the appropriate length pre-terminated V-Net extension
cable. V-Net cables are available in 12” increments and are equipped with a male connector on one end
and a female connector on the opposite end. In the event sensors are
mounted in multiple locations throughout the vehicle, simply measure
between each sensor location and order the necessary V-Net extension
cables to connect all items to the main V-Net cable routed to the rear of
the dash.
Any V-Net sensor currently offered by Racepak may be utilized by the IQ3 Street Logger Dash. For a
complete listing of available sensors, visit our website located at

or contact the Racepak
customer service department at 949-709-5555 for a catalog. Customer supplied sensors may also be
utilized. Racepak USM module (PN: 230-VM-USM) is a four sensor input module, providing the ability to
define each sensor input dependent on the sensor type. DataLink software is used to both set up and
configure the IQ3 Street Logger Dash using a Windows based PC. It will be used to modify any settings,
page layouts, warning light settings, add additional sensors, etc. See Programming the Display Using the
DataLink Software section shown later in this manual for further details.
