Serial Output #

The VBOX Touch Serial Output is on the top CAN/Serial port.

Output Mode

Choose the output mode of the serial port by tapping the button to cycle through the options:

  • VBOX Stream
  • Lap Timing
  • Disabled (default)

VBOX Stream

When using VBOX Stream, you can connect VBOX Touch to a computer (using an RLCAB001) to do online (live) testing in VBOX Test Suite.

Refer to the Operational Information page to learn more about this.

Lap Timing

When using Lap Timing, VBOX Touch will output lap timing parameters on the CAN/Serial port.

Baud Rate

This field provides the set serial output baud rate on the port (115200 kbit/s).

RTK Input #

The VBOX Touch RTK Input is on the bottom CAN/Serial port.

NTRIP Mode

Tap the button to Enable/Disable NTRIP Mode.

When NTRIP Mode is Enabled, VBOX Touch will output a GGA NMEA message and receive RTK corrections from an NTRIP modem connected to the bottom CAN/Serial port.

Refer to the Configuration page for more information about setting up the RTK input on VBOX Touch RTK.

DGPS Baud Rate

Change the DGNSS serial baud rate by tapping the button to cycle through the available options:

  • 9600 kbit/s
  • 19200 kbit/s
  • 38400 kbit/s
  • 57600 kbit/s
  • 115200 kbit/s (default)

The setting will be retained after power cycles, coldstarts and firmware upgrades.

If you are using a VBOX NTRIP Modem, the Baud Rate must be set to 115200 kbit/s.

If you are using a Telemetry Radio Module with a Static Base Station, this setting should be either 115200 kbit/s for a Racelogic radio (blue) or 38400 kbit/s for a Satel radio (grey).

RTK Correction Status

The unit's RTK correction status is indicated in the GPS Status section of the Diagnostics screen. The colour of the Satellite Status icon will change based on the RTK correction status (as specified on the User Interface page).
