Telemetry Monitor Software
The Telemetry Monitor software is used to monitor the optional telemetry link
and allows viewing of live data in various graphical formats such as charts,
bar graphs and dial gauges. It can also show the vehicle's current track
position on a track map and compare the current vehicle data to reference
data.
Telemetry Monitor software requires the optional Telemetry upgrade. See
ADL3 Upgrades.
Connecting the ADL3 to a PC
The ADL3 connects to the Ethernet port on the PC. This requires a connector
for the standard Ethernet cable in the loom.
The ADL3 loom #61213 incorporates this connector. Alternatively the
connector can be wired into an existing loom using the unterminated Ethernet
cable (#61131) or the Ethernet to Autosport pins cable (#61132).
All options are used in conjunction with a standard Ethernet cable.
Connection details are described in Wiring.
PC Communications Setup
To enable PC communications a connection must be setup in the ADL3 Dash
Manager to match the ADL3 serial number.
• On
the
Tools menu click Connection Settings and then click Add
• Click
OK to choose IP (Ethernet). This is the only available connection
type
• Enter the ADL3 serial number
If the PC needs to communicate with more than one ADL3, repeat the steps.
Only one connection can be active at a time. To switch to a different ADL3
select the appropriate connection and click Make Active.
Network Connection
Optionally, the ADL3 can be connected to a network. This allows for any
PC on the network to communicate with the ADL3.
