VBOX II SX

VBOX II DGPS 20Hz Datalogger

The VBOX IISX uses GPS to allow you to perform detailed analysis of Braking, Acclerating, Handling and Circuit testing. The VBOX will fit to a car in 30s, and requires no setting up or calibration.

The system uses a survey grade 20Hz GPS engine, and utilises removable SD cards for storage. For more detailed information about the technology behind the VBOX, please go to About the VBOX.

Outputs

Rear view of the VBOX II

  • Digital
    Velocity 90 pulses per metre.
  • CAN
    All parameters - 1Mbit default.
  • RS232
    All parameters - 115200 baud.
  • Analogue
