If you are doing trackdays timing is not allowed (usually) so any beacon(s) they have will be turned off.
For the beacons to work you also need to program in the track length otherwise the sector timing beacons might be detected as the start/end of
lap.
Mine was enabled by default and so triggered on a recent trackday at Cadwell Park without the lap length set so was a bit intermittent but worked for
some laps.
I've decided to put a button on my steering wheel and use the manual method - just need to make sure I don't get caught.
I hope this is some help

hello woodstaock thanks for the reply,
i think there is an option to use gps on the digidash which im now looking into, just going through the manual now its its a tad complicated to say
the least. Didnt know timing wasnt allowed but commense sense really for safety and increasing the rish of people running out of talent lol
Kind regards

Yep, GPS was available as an upgrade and I looked into adding it to mine but unfortunately I have an older one and it can't be done.
You'll find a serial number on the back of the dash and underneath the logger unit. If you call etb instruments they are really helpful and will
be able to look up your dash and tell you if it's possible.
