VBOX Configuration - 1 Target Vehicle (Moving Base Solution)
To configure VBOXs within a Subject Vehicle and 1 Target Vehicle using a Moving Base solution for ACC, AEB, BSD or FCW tests, please follow the steps below:
Place one VBOX into each vehicle - one will be the subject vehicle and one will be the target vehicle. Racelogic recommend that the target vehicle is used as the moving base. This means that the subject vehicle is only receiving the separation and correction data, not both sending and receiving it. This improves the reliability of the data.
