4.2. Digital sensor inputs
VinciLab has two digital BT (left-hand) sensor inputs D1 and D2. The CMA BT digital
Motion Detectors can be directly connected to these sensor inputs.
4.3. Sensor detection
VinciLab supports sensor recognition and tries to identify sensors connected to inputs.
•
When Coach
identifies
the connected sensor then its name is automatically
displayed in the Activity Screen tree and its digital display appears on the Sensors
Screen. When the sensor is then disconnected its name and digital display disappear
automatically.
•
When Coach does
not identify
the connected sensor then its name and digital
display does not appear. This happens for some older CMA sensors or sensors
connected via the CMA 4-mm to BT adapter art. code 0519. The user has to manually
choose and select the correct sensor from Coach Sensor Library. This is done via the
option Sensor Settings available in the Tool menu of the Sensors Screen. When the
sensor is disconnected then Coach keeps displaying the sensor name and its digital
display. The sensor can be removed by selecting the option
None
or selecting another
sensor from the Sensor Library.
•
When a predefined sensor is already set up in an Activity/Result and Coach:
-
identifies
the connected sensor as a different sensor then the sensor name
becomes red, tap
Exchange
to change the sensor to the connected one.
-
does not
identify it then its name remains grey, tap
Confirm
to accept the pre-
defined sensor or tap
Clear
to remove the connection.

5. Built-in sensors
VinciLab is equipped with two internal sensors:
•
A
Microphone
, which measures sound waveforms. This sensor can be used as:
-
a single sensor, this is possible only when working with a Coach Result for Sound
only, or a Coach Activity for the Internal microphone.
-
in combination with other sensors, the sound sensor will be then connected for
measurements via input A2. To make the sensor ready for measurement open
the Sensor Settings dialog and tap the
Enabled Internal sensor
button. When the
sensor is enabled no other measurements can be done via input A2 even if there
is a sensor connected to this input.
If an external microphone is connected via Audio In port then the internal
microphone is disconnected and the external microphone is used instead.
•
A
3-axis
Accelerometer
, which measures acceleration in 3 ranges:
±
20 m/s
2
,
±
40 m/s
2
and
±
80 m/s
2
in the x, y and z directions. This sensor can be used in
combination with other external sensors.
To make the sensor ready for measurement tap X, Y or Z tab in the Sensor Settings
and tap the checkbox
Enabled
. The X, Y, Z tabs are used for the acceleration
components respectively in x, y and z direction.
