VBOX Test Suite Update - V1.10

This is not the current software version!

This version of the VBOX Test Suite Software includes some significant updates, a new test plugin and bug fixes.
 

  • VBOX Test Suite Software can be downloaded here, if 'Automatically check for updates' is selected within the software, it will automatically detect the update when a valid internet link is detected and prompt you to download.
  • Instructions on how to install the software can be found here.
     

Many of the changes have been made as a direct result of customer feedback requesting new features. Some changes have been made to fix bugs and other issues found during testing.

Racelogic strongly recommend that all users update to the latest software release to take advantage of the new features and benefit from the improved stability.

Requirements

  • Microsoft Windows 7 SP1 or newer (must be compatible with .Net Framework 4.7.1)

New Test Plugin

  • R139 Brake Assist, Category B (beta) - The test allows the user to carry out a brake assist test in accordance with the R139 regulation. Test guide available here.

Key New Features 

  • Run Graph now displays an interpolated point for the start and the end of the run for a given channel. This helps to make it clear when viewing the graph what the start of run and end of run values were for that channel. More information is available here.
  • Measure Tool now interpolates the start and end of the range. Previously, the measure tool provided measurements from the first sample to the last sample within the range only. More information is available here.
  • End of Session condition now available in Custom Test plugin. This allows a test to be configured, for example, to start immediately and then stop at the end of the file. More information is available here.
  • New ‘Reset on start condition’ option within a Brake 'Trigger' test. This allows the test reset condition to be disabled, so the test will always start on the first trigger. More information is available here.
