Check Com(munication) menu
This option allows the complete communication path between wand, NFC tag, and Tramp to be
tested. Very useful in a race event where a cabling problem is suspected.
This tests that the Tramp is powered, the cable to the tag is intact, and not broken in any way, and
that the tag is fully operational and has not been damaged.
Program button performs the test.
Press the joystick to leave the menu.
Get Tx Ver(sion)
Read the firmware version that is running in the Tramp HV. Should be at least 1.26 for a production
tramp (earlier for pre-production models used at race events).
Note that the regional settings of the tramp are also shown alongside the version. INTL, USA, or
EU.
Program button reads the version.
Press the joystick to leave the menu.
Get Temp(erature)
Communicate with the Tramp, and read the board temperature used by the automatic thermal
protection mechanism.
Requires one read to ‘prime’ the system, following reads will show the board temperature.
Program button reads the temperature.
Press the joystick to leave the menu.
Note that the displayed temperature may vary slightly from a temperature measured using an IR
thermometer for example since the temperature read is the internal temperature of one of the ICs on the
board.
