VBOX Micro
• Logs data at up to 10Hz directly to compact flash card
• User adjustable log rate from 100ms/sample to 60s/sample
• VCI CAN input for connection to third-party CAN modules and Vehicle CAN
• Files are stored into folders by date
• Low power consumption means VBOX Micro can run for days on a compact battery pack
• IP66 rated enclosure
• Logging of up to 13 GPS channels, plus module dependent CAN channels
• A persistent odometer channel helps track long distance tests over multiple days or weeks
• LED operational status indication
• Supplied with VBOX tools data analysis software
Log rates can be configured from 10Hz down to 1 sample per minute. A versatile CAN interface allows data to be logged from a vehicle's CAN bus or from any of the VBOX interface modules.
VBOX Micro is ideal for durability testing, motorcycles, boats, mining trucks and race cars.
Applications
Due to its small size and ruggedness, VBOX Micro is ideal for:
• Fuel economy testing
• Durability testing
• Tyre testing
• Real world verification
Parameters
The VBOX Micro records the following parameters as standard:
• Time
• Position
• Speed
• Vertical velocity
• Longitudinal acceleration
• Lateral acceleration
• Distance since reset
• Height
• Accumulated distance
• Heading
You can also record other parameters, either by connecting to:
• your vehicle's CAN bus, or
• a suitable external input module
