What is MXL2?
Which data does it
manage?
MXL2 is a color, high-contrast brilliant
traditional LCD dash logger developed
for race car installations.
It is fully customer configurable. You can configure alarm LEDs
choosing color, blinking frequency and
defining the logic for turning them on
or off.
You can use a WiFi connection for
transmitting the data of your test,
sending data online and for
configuring the system.
Yes, MXL used to produce data in DRK
format. MXL2 offers an improved data
management and produces XRK
format that only RaceStudio3 can read.
Nevertheless, the last releases of
RaceStudio2 can detect XRK files and
transform them into old DRK format
files that are compatible with MXL1
and EVO4 files.
Data come from a wide range of sources,
including your vehicle ECU, the internal
accelerometers and gyro, the GPS
module included in the kit, the
analog/digital inputs, the external
expansions as well as predefined math
channels.
You can choose among a wide library
of page styles, defining the data to be
shown. End of scales and units of
measure can be easily configured,
using the RaceStudio3 software
included in the kit.
Is it possible to configure
the pages?
You can define up to eight different
fully customizable pages.
How many pages does
it show?
XRK, taking advantage of GPS
technology, associates absolute time
and GPS position to each data with the
precision of 1 millisecond.
In this way, it is possible to better
compare different laps and tests.
RaceStudio3 is the new software for
managing configuration, data
download and data analysis for all the
future AiM systems.
It is going to substitute RaceStudio2,
which has accompanied us for almost
15 years.
Based on a totally new and much more
flexible architecture, it is a work in
progress; some features still have to be
developed, so they are actually shared
with RaceStudio2.
What is the difference
between the old DRK
format and new XRK?
