-- New! RaceLog Pro 3 - Auto Air Input and Paging Functions --
This latest version of RaceLog Pro will install on all Windows platforms including XP Professional. We have added the Dew Point Temperature calculation, automatic weather import, and paging system functions to the ET Predictor form. With our New # FS-1100 PC Weather Station, the new weather conditions are automatically entered into the program for you every minute. The ET Predictor will keep a time log of the weather conditions for any interval that you select. This way, you can return to the pits at any time and retrieve the exact weather conditions that existed when you made your run.

With our optional, inexpensive New # FS-1200 Paging System, the Predicted ET, Predicted Throttle Stop setting, all current weather conditions including Dew Point Temperature, HP Correction, Air Density, Density Altitude, Wind Speed, Wind Direction, are sent directly to you in the staging lanes. Here is an example of an actual Page from RaceLog Pro 3:

RaceLog Pro 3 also supports our # FS-2100 Wireless Weather Station by adding our New # 1150 PC Interface and our New # 20035 PageAire Pro Software to your PC. We are adding support for Davis Weather Stations, and others, very soon.

-- New! PageAire Pro Software --
PageAire Pro is packaged with the FS-1100 PC Weather Station and is a 32-bit Windows program that is designed as an interface module that sits between a paging transmitter and/or a weather station. It's purpose is to display and automatically transfer the weather data from temperature, humidity, barometric pressure, and wind sensors to RaceLog Pro 3 (or other Windows program.) Then, if desired, to send data that it receives to a paging transmitter. All done without any user intervention! The weather data is transferred to a Windows directory or folder of your choice. Information to be paged is received in the PageAire Pro directory from RaceLog Pro 3 or other Windows program. It manages up to five (5) pagers and as many as three (3) instances of RaceLog Pro 3. In this manner, 1 to 3 different users can use the same PC to receive weather data and transmit to their own pager! As a stand alone program, PageAire Pro turns your PC into a complete weather station. This version of PageAire Pro is designed to be used with the # 1150 PC Interface and weather sensors from Family Software and Lacrosse Technology.
