Race modes, Circuits and point to point races – AiM SoloDL User Manual
Page 11
Please, use AIM Race Studio 2 software to
configure the track beacon positions and to
define the ECU of your car
(for SoloDL only).
Any other parameter will need to be
configured by the onboard keyboard.
To enter configuration press MENU.
Race Modes
Solo can manage different race modes:
Speed, Regularity and Performance.
In all situations, it gives the proper time
information.
To set the type of race, follow this path:
MENU>>Race Mode SetUp.
Speed
This is the usual race or test: you have to
drive at the maximum possible speed.
The lap time is rolling until the vehicle
passes in front of the finish line, where it
stops for some seconds.
SOLO CONFIGURATION
Regularity
The rule of regularity races is as follows
• the lap time stored after the second
passage from starting/finish line
becomes the reference lap;
• the following laps have to be driven in the
same lap time or as close as the reference
lap.
Solo will continuously show the predictive
lap time, or the difference (+ or -) between
the predictive and the target lap time.
Performance tests in detail
In case of Performance tests, the Start Line
is triggered at the increment of Speed,
while the Finish line depends upon the se-
lected length of test: Available length de-
pends on the selected measure units.
If Imperial units are selected it is possible to
choose among:
• 1/4 miles;
• 1/8 miles;
• 0/60 mph;
If the metric units are selected it is possible
to choose among:
• 0-100 km/h
• 0-160 km/h
• 100m
• 400m
• 1000m
Data recording and time computation starts
when Speed passes from “ZERO” to more than
10 km/h. When the set length or speed is rea-
ched the display will freeze and then shows
the performance time and max speed.
Circuits and Point to
Point Races
Circuit
Select this Mode when the lap begins and
finishes is at the same point.
Point to Point Race
If you configure Solo in order to manage
Point to Point Race, it starts the time (and
data recording) as soon as it passes in front
of the Starting Point and stops the timer
and shows the Lap Time when your vehicle
passes from the Finish Line.
Configuration pages
We have already seen that there is a large
amount of information that you can see on
your display, while your vehicle is on the
track:
• Lap time;
• Predictive lap time
• Speed
• Lap number
• Acceleration
• GPS signal information
• Data coming from the engine via
the ECU. (for SoloDL only).
For showing all these data, Solo has some
pre-defined pages, showing pre-organised
fields.
