This procedure writes a file that contains the current time and date on the memory card. For

card reader, place it back in to the IQ3 Drag Dash and turn on the power for at least 5 seconds.
MicroSD Flash Card Reader Installation
Data recorded by the IQ3 Drag Dash is stored on a microSD memory card. In order to transfer
the data to the user’s PC, it is necessary to utilize a microSD memory card reader. A microSD
card reader is included in the IQ3 Drag Dash kit package. The reader requires an available USB
port on your PC.
The microSD memory card reader provided with the IQ3 Drag Dash does not support
Windows 95 or Windows 98 operating systems.
Clearing Data Files from the Memory Card
Clearing run data files after each data upload is not required but it is highly recommended that
you do not allow too many run data files to build up. Storing too many data files on the
memory card can also make it more difficult to identify the proper run data file on future
uploads. Eventually the memory card will fill to capacity, and the data logger will no longer be
able to record data. You can clear the data files from the memory card by performing the
following procedure:
1) Start the DataLink II software and open your Car Configuration file by Clicking on
File
from the Menu bar and selecting
Open Car Configuration
. Select the configuration file
named
IQ3_Config_Drag
and click
OK
