4 Introduction

However most wheel speed sensors generate a variable frequency signal
which must be connected to either a Digital input or a Speed input.

Expanders

E888
The SDL3 supports an E888 Expander, 8 x 10 bit thermocouples only.

Accessories

BR2
A BR2 Beacon Receiver may be connected to the Dash Logger, which
allows the Dash Logger to calculate lap times for display and to provide lap
information for the data analysis software.

SLM
The SLM Shift Light Module can be used for shift lights, warning lights and
other driver alerts.
The SLM includes 8 LEDs that can be programmed to display any colour.

GPS
The Dash Logger supports many GPS (Global Positioning System)
devices allowing the Dash Logger to record speed and position information
as well as providing lap timing.
This information can be used in the i2 data analysis software to create
track maps, and plot and compare driven lines.

Video

MoTeC’s Video Capture System (VCS) is an integrated in-car camera system,
recording video and audio using the MPEG-2 video compression format at
broadcast quality. It includes a built in real-time graphics processor that allows
sensor data to be overlaid onto the video in real-time without the need for
additional hardware. The CAN interface enables communication with other
devices, for example to set Auto Start/Stop Recording conditions.
Multiple video streams, from in-car cameras for example, can be linked with
logged data for synchronised playback of footage alongside other analysis
components. Synchronised video requires a standard video capture device
and the Pro Analysis upgrade to provide access to i2 Pro data analysis
software.
Note: Synchronisation can be completed manually or automated by recording
regular sync points onto the audio track of the video camera. This requires the
