CAN Output/RACELOGIC Module Port
The top LEMO port on the MFD Touch provides CAN output.
This can be used to include the MFD Touch in a daisy chain with additional Racelogic modules connected to the VBOX system.
CAN Input Port
The bottom LEMO port on the MFD Touch is used to connect to the VBOX using the supplied RLCAB005-C cable.
CAN output is also available from this port when used with an RLVBACS024 CAN splitter.
The Left Side of the Unit
SD Card Slot
The SD card slot on the left side panel on the unit is used to insert the SD card MFD Touch uses to save and load settings, save test results and update the firmware.
LEDs
MFD Touch has 4 LEDs above the display. These LEDs are contextual feedback indicators tied to system state, user actions, and test behaviour, and they can flash in different colours and different patterns depending on the process the unit is performing.
Refer to the User Interface page for more details about the different LED behaviours.
