Hill Climb track mapping start/finish
Posted: Thu May 16, 2019 2:57 pm
Hello:
I am trying to set up lap timing for a hill climb event and have trouble with RaceCapturePro mk 3 triggering on the return trip down the hill. For this event the drivers have to recross the start line (in the opposite direction) to re-enter the pit area after each run.
I can't figure out how to prevent the unit from considering the return to pits as a new lap. Any suggestions?
I did see the lua script example using an external switch to trigger the camera and logging which is fine -- how do I do something similar to trigger the lap timers?
As a related question -- is there anyway on a track with different start and finish lines to abort a lap? While testing the above I could not figure out how to stop the lap timer and start over without either shutting off the unit or going all the way to the top of the hill to trigger the finish. The latter would not be allowed at an event of course!
Thanks!
