We designed the Data Module to be able to use any 0-5v sensor in the 'SENS' input. Because of that, we couldn't hard-code DashWare to mate that signal to a specific gauge spot (Throttle, Temp, Boost, etc.). In order to setup the sensor to be used you should do the following.

NOTE: This only needs to be done once. From then on you will have this sensor automatically mapped.

Youtube video showing this process here: http://www.youtube.com/chasecam#p/a/u/0/S52TRAWR_-A


1. Open up the Data Profile Editor (File / Edit Data Profiles)

2. Select the "ChaseCam (Read Only)" data profile at the top and click the Clone button to make a copy of it. Save the copy with a new filename.

3. In the lower left, add a new Calculator by clicking on the '+' sign. Choose "Linear Interpolator" and click Add.

4. Make the Input Value "mV" and choose a name for the sensor you have hooked up (ex: Throttle Position).

5. In the lower right, add a new Column Mapping by clicking on the '+' sign. Name the Input Data Column the same name you used in step 4. Then choose the Data Category and Type to associate the sensor with.

This should do it. Now you can use your new data profile when you open your data/video files and everything will be connected.

Thanks.
