VBOX Configuration - 2 Target Vehicles (Static Base Station)
To configure VBOXs within a Subject Vehicle and 2 Target Vehicles using a Static Base Station 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 two will be the target vehicles.
Target Vehicle 1
- Connect VBOX Manager to the VBOX in Target Vehicle 1.
- Enter the 'SETUP' menu of VBOX Manager.
- Select the 'VBOX' option and scroll to 'Log Rate'. Ensure that '100 Hz' is selected, if it is not, select the menu and choose the option.
- Scroll to 'Dynamic Mode', select and then choose one of the following options:
- If you are not using IMU integration, set the dynamic mode to 'Medium' and press to confirm, this Dynamics mode is best for ADAS tests.
- If you are using IMU integration, set the dynamic mode to 'High' and press to confirm.
- If you are not using IMU integration, set the dynamic mode to 'Medium' and press to confirm, this Dynamics mode is best for ADAS tests.
- Scroll to 'DGPS Rate' and select the appropriate settings for your radios.
Note: To ensure that the VBOX receives the DGPS correction signal, the correct RS232 rate must be set. All Racelogic blue boxed radios use 115200 kbit/s, Satel grey boxed radios use either 19200 kbit/s or 38400 kbit/s.
- Scroll to 'DGPS Mode', select and then set to the same 2 cm mode that the Base Station is set to. For further info on RTK modes see RTK Configuration.
