When you have one or more
Measuring Blocks or
Advanced Measuring Values
with speed (km/h) in it, clicking on
[Acceleration] will bring up
the Acceleration Measurement window, which allows you to enter start and
stop speeds and distances. After entering the values you want to
measure, click [Start].
Next, do your acceleration runs in a safe and legal location. The
"clock" will start counting when the car starts to accelerate. When complete, click
on [Save] to save a copy of your results to your C:\Ross-Tech\VCDS\Logs directory.
Use
[Done, Go Back] to return to
the Measuring
Blocks
or
or
Advanced Measuring Values screen.
Note:
The +/- tolerance shown is based on the sample rate of the
data selected. Use a single measuring group and use
these tips to get the fastest possible sample rate. Our
testing at a dragstrip yielded results within the tolerance.
Obviously, changes like overall tire diameter can greatly
affect the results.
Warning!
If you wish to observe real-time data while driving the car, please use
a second person! Let one drive while the other observes the data,
making sure the person holding the PC is not in front of an active
airbag!
