Just an update. I've learned some additional information about the G2X unit and I have a G2X unit in hand for testing next week.
Additional info from Racepak:
"Our G2X utilizes our Vnet canbus technology, so in reality you can add many
sensors to the system..utilizing a single cable
to route the data back to the G2X. Our Vnet technology allows the user to simply install our sensors, connect the sensor to the Vnet module, connect all the modules together in a daisy chain arrangement, then route a single cable from the modules back to the G2X. This allows us to create "smart sensors" that know their scaling and calibration values. The user simply instructs the G2X to "read" via the DatalinkII software...all new sensors are automatically added to the software, with appropriate channel name, calibration values, scaling values, logging rates etc.. automatically added.
While it appears we only have two available inputs, one is just an auxiliary wheel rpm input, while the other is the EFI interface...In all reality, the G2X is a full blown data logger. We just wanted to take our time going into this market, before rolling out all the bells and whistles.
The Vnet is something we created a few years back, which allows customers to easily add sensors, without the necessity of hiring an engineer to route a wire for each sensor, pick the type of sensor, calibrate the sensor, scale the sensor, etc. We just have not really highlight this aspect of the G2X, as we wanted our users to first become familiar with how to use the system, before adding additional items."
