Product CodeDescription
RLCAB010LEIn-Car Power Supply
RLACS286Roll Cage Camera Mount with Thumb Nut for RLVBLAP-S
RLCAB122VBOX LapTimer Connection Cablefor connecting VBOX LapTimer to a Video VBOX Pro or VBOX Video HD2

Any suitable 12 V supply powers the  LapTimer. You must wire the unterminated end of the RLCAB014LE cable directly to a compatible power supply or to a connector that you can use with a compatible power supply. 

The power port is the top Lemo port on the unit. 

When you power up the LapTimer unit, the LEDs will light white and sweep through the LED array to indicate that the unit is powered and initialising.

The LapTimers can record to MMC, SD, SDHC and SDXC media cards formatted in a FAT or FAT32 format.

SDXC cards will be formatted as exFAT by default, a format type not supported by LapTimers.  You can still use them, as long as you reformat them to FAT32 first. There are various free third-party applications available online to format SDXC cards.

If you do not have an SD card inserted in your VBOX LapTimer, it will show a No Media message while the vehicle is moving at speeds of 5 mph or less. This makes it easier for you to make sure that you have an SD card inserted before you start your logging.
