Before you can display any Drift results you need to set up sectors.

Defining Drifting Sectors in DriftBox Tools

Each sector that you set requires that you define a start line and an end line. Each sector is

numbered from 1-6.

Setting sector Start

 Move the cursor in the Graph window to the start point of the sector.

 Press the key ‘1’

 A green dot will appear at this position in the Map window

Setting sector End

 Move the cursor in the Graph window to the end point of the sector.

 Press + ‘1’

 A red dot will appear at this position in the Map window.

To define other sectors use the ‘2’, ‘3’ etc. buttons.

Loading and Saving Sectors

Saving

Click on the „Save‟ option in the Sectors drop down menu to save to the sectors created in the

Graph screen to a „.sct‟ file.

Click on the „Load‟ button in the Sectors drop down menu. You can then browse for a previously

generated sector file containing sector information.

Clearing Sectors

If the current sector information in the graph screen needs to be cleared from the background

memory and display screens, select „Clear All‟ from the „Sectors‟ menu in the Graph screen

toolbar, or press + „C‟.

Displaying Drifting Results

To extract and display Drifting results from a file press the Drift Mode button in the

Graph screen toolbar. This causes the software to scan the loaded file and apply

loaded sector file information to produce a Drifting data grid showing the following

data:

 Peak Drift angle

 Peak G

 Average G

 Average Speed

A G meter and Drift meter window also appear when the Drift Mode button is pressed. When the

replay facility (see below) is used to replay the loaded file, the G and Drift angle windows display

data from the file that corresponds to the cursor position as it moves through the replaying data.
