v4 how it works / Re: Incorrect Lap times for small tracks

« Last post by widders on March 02, 2018, 02:06:47 PM »

Hi thanks for your reply. The firmware is updated to 1.09. The S/F is just before the pit lane entrance.
I will reset the min lap time to 2 seconds as you suggest. Thanks for the advice on the smart sensors.
Love this system!

Hi, is your firmware of the powerbase upgraded to 1.09 ?

RCS should perfectly well count you lap, I suggest to put your minimum lap time to 2 seconds to start with.
Yes, you need sensors for pacers to stop in pits.
How is your pitlane placed ? Parallel or before/after Start/Finish?

RCS64 need to know when it is in pitlane. Someone need to tell it to RCS64 and its easier to ask some sensors than asking you I gues:)..

Please look at the smartsensors they are the most reliable ones for this..

Thanks for the reply.
My lap times for one lap is 4.3 seconds and for the double lap 8.5 seconds.

just another little item I have not solved. That is getting a pace car to pit and stop. I have worked out how to get it to enter the pit lane but it goes straight through. Are pit sensors essential for this operation. I am using cross overs.

Thank you for your help.

You know that the Min lap time should be below the lap time right.
How long time is your lap?

Hi, I have tried putting in minimum lap times for one lap @ 3 seconds and also 7 seconds for the double lap time. But it still only records a lap of two circuits. Any other ideas? Thanks for your reply.

I think its related to your min lap time..

I have a small track, only 8 mtrs in length. Does anyone have the answer to why the Rcs64 records two laps of this track as one. Even the pace cars record two laps as one. The lap time is only four seconds, is this too small a figure for the Rcs64 to register. It still works well but, it means a pit stop in lane is difficult to achieve.
Has any one had this problem.
The system is excellent and I am expanding the track, but, would still like to solve this.

Issues with version 4 / Re: APB disconnect

« Last post by martin on February 26, 2018, 12:01:07 PM »

RCS64 send a car speed to APB then the APB send a throttle values from the controller back. That is how its looping. And if the connection somehow is lost the car just continue driving same speed as the lasp package RCS64 have sent to the CAR. We have heard that others have had this problem and this was Hardware related. My guees its a defect cable.
