MFD Touch - Numerical Screens

Parameter

You can change a parameter by pressing the Select button to open the Data Source menu, where you can choose from Standard, VBOX CAN, Decel Test, Accel Test and Lap Timing parameters. You can assign any data parameter that is available from the connected VBOX along with any MFD Touch calculated test results to the selected numerical element.

Note: The selected data source is highlighted in blue and the currently selected parameter is displayed in grey on the options list.

Data Source Menu

Standard Parameter Menu

Use the scroll bar on the right-hand side of the selection screen to navigate through the options and press the desired parameter to confirm your selection.

Return to the settings screen by pressing the Exit button in the bottom left corner.
 

You can find a list of available parameters here.

Note: If a previously selected CAN channel parameter is no longer available, the values for that parameter will display as zero or nil. The parameter reference name will be greyed out and 'MISSING PARAMETER' will flash in the header of the screen.

Smoothing

You can smooth the displayed live speed values if required. The input value determines the number of previous data samples used to smooth the displayed data. It does not affect any of the performance results or the logged data of the connected unit.

To enable smoothing, press the current value (off by default) and use the presented keypad to enter the number of previous data samples you would like to use in the display smoothing.
 

Smoothing Value Keypad Example
 

Save the selected value by pressing the Confirm button in the bottom right corner. Press the Cancel button in the bottom left corner to return to the Settings screen without saving.
 

Notes:

• The maximum input value is 99.
• Smoothing can introduce a slight delay to the displayed value.
• The setting will be greyed out and disabled if the numerical parameter being configured is UTC Time, Longitude, or Latitude.

Decimal Places

You can select how many decimal places are used to represent the nominated data for the selected numerical element. 
 

Available options include 0, 1, 2 and 3. The default setting is 2. The exception is integer-only channels, including Satellites, Trigger Test Number, Decel Test Number, and UTC Time, which do not have any decimal points. Tap the buttons to change the decimal places used.

Text Colour

You can define the text colour of the numerical element data. Press the current colour (black by default) and use the presented RGB sliders to define your new colour. The area to the left of the sliders provides a colour preview.
