Automatic OBDII shuts off, then sync is off?

Help on issues you run into with LapTimer; in case you have a question on how to use LapTimer, use the forum "Using LapTimer" instead

Automatic OBDII shuts off, then sync is off?

Post by carramrod »

I'm posting this here and linking to it form the Automatic Alpha group. Normal day at Harris Hill, I heard the Automatic beep on connection, went on track and started my practice runs. Right at the top of turn 4, the OBD widget goes haywire and shuts off, then a few seconds later comes to life. I don't feel like it's in sync, but I'll need to watch it a couple more times and think about my run ;)

Anyway, I don't know if it's the connection between Harry's and the Automatic adapter that crashed out, or the Automatic adapter had an issue. I can send logs to whoever needs them (Automatic or Harry).

In case the connection drops, you need to send a log for further analysis. Please check viewtopic.php?f=39&t=1500 for the details.

For sync problems (data and video), you probably need to adjust the Overlay Synchronisation / Video setting in LapTimer ‣ Administration ‣ Settings ‣ Expert Settings. In case video is ahead, reduce the standard 1s delay. In case video is behind, increase the 1s default. Use small steps - like 0.5s for the changes and rerun the overlay to test the result. For more details on this, please try the forum search ("sensor delay").
