Brake Bias and Anti-Roll Bar Info for Simscreen?
« on: August 04, 2012, 07:18:41 pm »
Hi,

I recently purchased a Simscreen and what a game changer that little beauty is!! I can visualise my fuel load now and as I drive endurance races in iRacing mainly, it has been invaluable.

Anyway, in last weeks new build, telemetry is now being output for brake bias and front and rear anti-roll bar settings. I drive the Ford Falcon V8 and these are adjustable in-car during the race. Is it possible to have this info available for Simscreen to display at some point in the future.

Thanks in advance and keep making us smile with these toys :)

Andrew

Hello.
I have added your request to the list of new features to add to SimDash.
If IRacing is outputing these values I think it won't be a problem to add them to the SImScreen.

Regards
Cristiano

Any chance of seeing these features anytime soon?

I think it is possible because next version is due in a couple of weeks and I have a couple of days available so I can investigate if I can do that.

If the data is really available in the telemetry, I am not expecing any problem

Awesome, this is my #1 wanted feature (and fuel estimation etc). Thanks Cristiano!

I have check the new telemetry but I can't find anything about brake bias and anti-roll bar info.

Does anybody have a link or anything I can check?

thank you

Christiano,

Thanks for looking into this. In Motec i2 (using Mu Exporter to extract the telemetry from iRacing) the data read is titled;

dcAntiRollFront
dcAntiRollRear
dcBrakeBias

The values are definitely being output as I have solid data from the last few races. I can see where I have changed these settings in the race.

Thanks again :)

Andrew

Iracing has two set of APIs: one is available in realtime and that's what SimDash and other similar softwares use.

Other data is saved on the disk during the race and can be analysed later on, using a telemetry software.
I thing the data you are looking for belongs to the second type: is saved on the disk and is available for analysis, but not in real time.

iRDDU pushes it out live, and David Tucker from iR said its also available live (apparently).

I am logging that information to telemetry, both in real time and into the .ibt files so you can analyze it later in ATLAS.

The variables are named: dcBrakeBias, dcAntiRollFront, and dcAntiRollRear.

Hey Cristiano,

That was from a PM from David Tucker, did you need some more specific info about it?

It's because I can't find that data in the live telemetry.

I have found this page:

http://www.iracing.com/inracingnews/iracing-news/release-notes-for-2012-season-3

where they say:

Quote
Telemetry
- Log pit stop and in car adjustments to telemetry (dcBrakeBias, etc).
- Turn on shock deflection to live telemetry (LFshockVel, etc).

from that page it looks like LFshockVel is in the live telemetry (and I can see it) but dcBrakeBias is not.

Are you in contact with David Tucker? maybe you could ask him to clarify. Otherwise I can try to PM him.

Thanks
Cristiano
