Opening a Lap and Graphing Data: Road Racing/Circle Track/ Boats
At this time, we have downloaded our first run, made a quick check of data and created and
saved a track map. We would now like to review the basic procedures for viewing and graphing
data. Before opening a lap for review, double click the Clear All Graphs icon, located in the
vertical list of icons on the left side of the DataLink II screen. This will clear all currently
graphed data.
The initial Runfile should still be open. The DataLink II
software saves individual lap data, with corresponding lap
times (called a Lapfile) within the Runfile. Simply worded, a
Runfile is a folder with all the laps placed inside.
Open a Lap
1. Place the mouse cursor over the Runfile tab and
right
click. To open the fastest lap, select the
Open Fastest button, as shown below.
2. The fastest lap will now be displayed, as shown in the example below.
All of the data channels that were active during this test run are now in view in the Channel
Button area. However, no graphed data will appear, until the user selects any of the Channel
Buttons, as discussed in the next section.
Referring back to the above Select Lap dialog window, laps can be opened by three different
methods:
1. Open All: This will automatically open all laps contained within the Runfile
2. Open Fastest: This will open only the fastest lap.
3. Open Selected: This will open one lap, by placing cursor over the desired lap and left
clicking.
A Runfile is indicated by the blue disk icon and a Lapfile is indicated by the blue track
map icon, along with the corresponding lap number.
