G-Force Meter

  • Updated: 29 November 2023

  • Version: 1.0.1.34

  • About

    This app is for displaying a G-Ball meter of both lateral and longitudinal G-Force and a combination G Value. The G-Ball is shown on two data screens, each of which contain different supporting data.

    The first screen shows live data, including lateral and longitudinal acceleration, and speed. The second screen shows peak data values, including signed lateral acceleration, and peak longitudinal acceleration and deceleration.  

    Peak data values can be easily reset at the press of a button.

    A VBOX IMU can be connected to show measured acceleration data from the inertial sensors. More information available in the 'Using IMU' tab.

    The unit also includes the ability to record a screenshot of the current display at any time, and all data is logged to the SD card in the Racelogic VBO format.

  • Using IMU

    If a VBOX IMU is detected by VBOX Touch, an additional screen will become available that shows the Y and X Accel data measured by the sensor. Data from the IMU will be included in the logged data file.

    To be detected, the IMU must be configured in 'Timed' CAN mode, be set to 500kb/s baud rate, and be using the default output identifiers of 0x600 and 0x601. It can be connected to either 5-pin connection port of the VBOX Touch.

    VBOX Setup software and an RLCAB030-S cable are required to configure the IMU. A configuration file can be found here.

    Note: The PEAK screen will use IMU data to control the G-Ball. The peak acceleration results will be the greatest magnitude achieved from either GNSS or inertial sensor source.

Event Marker

  • Released: 29 November 2023

  • Version: 2.0.2

  • About

    This app allows you to highlight events during data capture, making post-process data analysis faster and more efficient.

    It features big buttons on the screen for this purpose, with each press marking an event. These marks are saved in the VBOX data file and also sent to any external logging device through CAN.

    You can mark up to six different types of events by changing the settings in a text file. This is particularly handy when you need to track various kinds of events or if you're using the app for something like a feedback scoring system.

    The app includes other visual indicators for logging status and satellite lock, and also includes a note mode, reducing screen brightness for use in darker environments.

    Simply download the app and the accompanying text config file to an SD card (root directory!) and insert into the unit prior to applying power.

  • Installation

    1. Download the correct zip file for your product. 
      (Your unit must be registered to receive the required login details for the download. Register here.)
    2. Place the .rvf /.rpf file and the user script file on the root directory of the SD card (not in the media or any other folder).
    3. Insert the SD card into the side panel of the unpowered unit.
    4. Power up VBOX Touch/ Performance Box Touch.
    5. Confirm the update by pressing OK. The unit will then display an update screen with a progress bar.
    6. Once complete, the unit will restart.

    Once the firmware is successfully loaded on to the unit, the file will be removed from the SD card.

    Example text configuration file included in download.

  • CAN Output Usage

    You are connecting your CAN devices at your own risk.

    The Customisation.json file contains a section to configure the CAN output.

    • “BAUD RATE” – enter required baud rate, in bps format
    • “TERMINATION” – set termination on VBOX CAN port by changing 0 to 1
    • “CAN ID” – Define CAN output message identifier
    • “PORT” – Define which port the output is on; 0 is the top 5-pin port, 1 is the bottom 5-pin port (next to 2-pin power)

    The provided DBC applies to default CAN output. Message identifier needs updating in correspondence with any ‘CAN ID’ changes.

  • Release Notes

    The latest release adds CAN output functionality and support for new VBOX Touch hardware variants.

Brake Force

  • Released: 29 November 2023

  • Version: 1.0.23.85

  • About

    This app uses a Pedal Force Sensor (RLACS282) connected to the VBOX Touch via a Mini Input Module (MIM01) to measure stopping distance from a nominated pedal force to zero.

    The user can specify the pedal force at which the test should start, as well as a minimum speed threshold at which the test will start. The screen displays the current vehicle speed, the current pedal force, the braking distance, the MFDD and the average deceleration of the last completed brake stop. The results from each brake stop are automatically recorded to a text file on the SD card, along with a .vbo file that contains all the VBOX data required for post-processing using the ‘Trigger’ plugin in VBOX Test suite.

    To use this app, the Mini Input Module will need the configuration file for VBOX Touch. You must configure the Mini Input Module timer value to 10ms. The pedal force sensor must be wired into the ‘AN1’ channel of the Mini Input Module and the ‘Voltage_1’ channel must be scaled and offset correctly with the response ID remaining as ID310.

  • How to install?

    1. Download the .rvf file to your PC. 
      (The download is password-protected. You must register your unit to receive the required login details. Register here.)
