The circled area circled in green shows two
sections of track passing by each other by only
approximately 20m. If a split point is set on this
section, and the virtual gate has been set too
wide, the split point could be registered by the
DriftBox as it passes by in the opposite direction.
Track proximity can be checked in Google
Earth
TM
using the measurement tool if you are in
doubt as to how wide the split points should be
created.
Split Names
Split points can be named from the option in the
„Start, Finish & Splits‟ menu. When the Lap
Timing – Split Line option is chosen to display lap times (assuming that split points have been
created) an extra column will display the split names.
Displaying Lap Times
Load the DriftBox .dbn file into the software, then define a start / finish line (along
with split points and a separate finish line if required) in the manner described
above, or by loading a .dsf or .spl file.
Press the Lap Timing button on the Toolbar.
The software scans the currently loaded file,
extracts lap times and Vmax for each logged
lap, and displays the data in a results window.
Note: The fastest lap in the results table will be
highlighted for quick and easy recognition (see
example left.)
Including Split times
If you have set up split points in addition to the
start / finish and wish to see the split times displayed, click on the right hand arrow on the Lap
timing button, then from the drop down menu select „Lap Timing – Split Line‟. The results table will
show the split times as well as the Lap times in the file.
