Compatible media

The VBOX Mini LapTimer can record to MMC, SD, SDHC and SDXC media cards formatted in a FAT or FAT32 format.

SDXC cards will be formatted as exFAT by default, a format type not supported by VBOX LapTimer. You can still use them, as long as you reformat them to FAT32 first. There are various free third-party applications available online to format SDXC cards.

Memory Usage

If the SD card you use has less than 10 MB of space available you will see a warning symbol flashing periodically indicating the amount of memory available.

The function of the OK Button

Depending on which mode is currently active on the screen, the function of the OK button will change. The splash screen shown when scrolling through the menu describes the function of the OK button in each mode.

No Media
