Description:
RaceLog
Pro 6 Plusä
is the Weather and Paging System enabled version of our RaceLog
Pro 6 Liteä
software.
You don't need a trailer station or paging system to use RaceLog
Pro Plus, but if you do, it supports Davis Vantage Pro, Altronics
PAPC, and Lacrosse weather stations plus our unique Xlite Paging
System. So, you can add a weather station or paging system at any
time. RaceLog Pro Plus is the software we package with every
Weather Station/Paging Package that we offer. With a supported Weather
Station, the new weather can be automatically entered into the program
for you every 10 seconds! We currently support:
Davis
Weather Monitor II
Davis Vantage Pro (all models)
Davis Vantage Pro 2 (all models)
LaCrosse Professional Weather Center (Model WS-2010, WS-2210, WS-2510,
WS-7015 only)
Altronics (PAPC) Performaire PC - Our Paging System also works with
the Performaire PC
RaceLog
Pro Plus is the ultimate Drag Racing Logbook, and ET Prediction
system for your personal computer. It supports an unlimited number
of databases each having an unlimited number of records. RaceLog
Pro automatically tracks weather conditions, run information, weather
corrected run segments, vehicle settings, component runs, track
conditions, expenses, points, winnings, and more. Weather correction
calculations support both gasoline and methanol fuel. Any
run can be located immediately by Run #, Track, Event, or Date.
A Form-view allows the user to see and edit all the data on just
one screen. An exclusive dual Table-view allows comparison of multiple
runs within a database, or between databases. Records and reports
can be printed instantly. RaceLog Pro Plus interfaces with
many trailer stations and weather stations to automatically input
the air conditions and do it’s computations without any help from
the user. It will also interface with Family Software’s Weather
Paging system to send your predicted ET, throttle stop prediction
and all weather conditions directly to the racer in the staging
lanes.
RaceLog
Pro Plus will install on all Windows platforms 9x, XP, and
Vista and requires at least an 800x600 VGA or higher display. It
comes completely setup to page up to three (3) different cars and/or
Right Lane/Left Lane ET Predictions simultaneously. The installation
program gives the user an option to place shortcuts on the desktop
during installation and this is recommended.
If
you are using a supported weather station with RaceLog Pro Plus,
it isn't necessary to enter the weather data to a new record manually.
Racelog Pro Plus maintains a separate Date/Time indexed weather
database while it is running. When adding, editing, or inserting
a new run, if weather data is available, a Data Control appears
allowing you to select the weather according to the Date and Time
on your time slip and is entered automatically into the database
record.
RaceLog
Pro Plus uses TrueWindä
ET Prediction, another innovation from Family Software. TrueWind
is the actual amount of wind force that is capable of affecting
your car's performance. TrueWind values are used in accurately predicting
variations in elapsed time due to changes occurring in wind speed
and wind direction. Regardless of the wind direction and total wind
speed, using TrueWind, a trailer-mounted weather station can also
be used to measure the actual head or tail wind occurring on the
race track! The built-in ET Predictor Pro uses the TrueWind values
from your Base Run, the current TrueWind values, and a Wind Factor
specific to your car, to produce a TrueWind adjusted ET, and sends
it directly to your pager in the staging lanes. If you are manually
entering your weather data, you can still use a hand held wind meter
with TrueWind ET Prediction.
RaceLog
Pro Plus has a special ET Predictor screen for eighth mile
racers. If you enter a zero (0) in the fields for 1000 foot ET and
1320 foot ET of the logbook run record, the ET Predictor knows this
is an eighth mile run. When you open the ET Predictor, it will automatically
display the 1/8-Mile Mode.
Pager
messages received have a Pager Identity P1, P2, P3, P4, or P5. By
adding the Pager ID to each message, it is easy to match a paging
message with the instance of RaceLog Pro Plus that sent it.
Therefore, if you only have one pager, you can now send simultaneous
messages for different cars, or right lane and left lane ET predictions
to the same pager. Here is an example Page:
P1-
ET:8.862 TS:1.379 B:30.03 T:67 RH:49 G:47 V.326 HC:1.0166 AD:97.96
DA:701 DP:47 W:3.0
Our
pager units are the best in the industry, are brand new, (not refurbished
like our competitors), and use the latest technology. Our pager
has the only LCD display in the industry that will show up to 8
lines of text. This means that you can see all your data on just
one (1) screen and not have to scroll back and forth. Our competitors
use pagers that cannot compare in features, quality, or value, yet
they charge you more for each pager!
RaceLog
Pro Plus uses Family Software's proprietary Horsepower Correction
formulas for ET Prediction, the only completely scientific formulas
in the industry. Our ET Prediction is based on the amount of horsepower
being produced based on the RELATIVE OXYGEN in the
air and a COMPUTER MODEL of your particular cars performance.
We DO NOT average weather data, run data, or use outdated
(and inaccurate!) Density Altitude calculations for ET Prediction.
Our original formulas are perfectly accurate and have never needed
changing.
RaceLog
Pro has always used Vapor Pressure and is the only ET Prediction
software to handle humidity calculations correctly. You won't find
any "fudge factors" in our software. Here are some of the calculations
provided:
Horsepower
Correction Factor
Air Density Index
Density Altitude
Vapor Pressure
Water Grains per Pound
Dew Point Temperature
Horsepower Corrected Weight
Standard
Pressure ET Correction
Predicted 60' ET
Predicted 330' ET
Predicted 660' ET
Predicted 1000' ET
Predicted 1320' ET
Throttle Stop Prediction
Run Completion ET
TrueWind 660' Prediction
TrueWind 1000' Prediction
TrueWind 1320' Prediction
And
our exclusive Run Segment Analysisä
feature to compare and graph runs to see as little as .001
of a second difference at different points on the race track. Differences
that are not due to weather change. This is a feature that
Family Software developed and copyrighted, no one else. We are the
original ET Prediction software developer and an innovator in this
industry!
Remember,
often imitated, but never duplicated, we have been "The
ET Prediction Experts" since 1986.
