Memory Cards
The VB2SX stores logged data onto SD Cards. The supplied SD cards are already optimised for use on the VB2SX and as such do not need formatting before
use. Should the SD Card need formatting due to card errors it should only be formatted using the ‘Format Compact Flash’ option in the VBOXTools software.
The SD Card will need to be inserted into an SD Card reader (or a VB2SX
set to ‘Card Reader’ USB Mode) for this to work.
When logging data to an SD Card the OLED display will show the name of the current file at the bottom of the display. It is important not to remove the SD Card
while the VB2SX is logging. If the card is removed while the VBOX is writing data to it, there is a risk that the data file may be corrupted resulting in loss of data.
If ‘
Log only when moving
’ is the logging mode selected then wait a short time after the vehicle has stopped for logging to finish and the filename to disappear
from the screen. If ‘
Log continuously
’ is selected, press the Start/stop logging switch if connected or enter then exit the on-board configuration screen.
It is recommended that files are removed from the disk regularly as writing continuously with out fragments is easy. The more file fragments the
harder it is to stream data to the card.
