11. GPS and Track Management

The GPS Module, included in the MXL2 kit,
provides the following information,
updated ten times per second:

n Position (latitude, longitude, altitude)
n Speed
n Longitudinal acceleration
n Lateral acceleration

If MXL2 knows the finish line of the track
and the split coordinates, it can
calculate and show:

n Lap Times
n Split times

To transmit track information to MXL2, use
the Track Manager feature, as explained in
the following section.

With Tracks you can update, modify,
transmit and receive to and from MXL2 the
coordinates of the finish line and split
points of all the tracks you are going to run.

When opening the software, if there is no
system connected to your PC via USB cable,
you will see the screen shown here on the
right.

As you can see, the screen is divided into
two parts.
On the left you see the track list.
If available, you will see the track layout and
the type of vehicle that usually races on the
track: car, motorcycle or kart.
On the right side of the screen, you will find
a big picture of the track.
