Product Description
The C127 is a new model in MoTeC's range of Displays and Display Loggers, featuring an impressively generous, high resolution, full color screen. Stylishly designed with powerful functionality, the C127 provides a sophisticated display plus data logging, auxiliary control and programmable LEDs all in one streamlined device.
Measuring 178 mm (approx. 7 inches), the ultra-bright screen is vibrant and anti-reflective, making it easy to view in direct sunlight. Numerous selectable layouts are supplied with configurable channels, labels and color schemes. Or, for the flexibility to treat your screen as a blank canvas and design your own layout with unique graphics, sponsor logos, custom icons and gauges, opt for the new Display Creator upgrade.
The C127 features a total of 16 full color LEDs integrated into the unit for use as shift lights, warning lights or other driver alerts. The color, function and intensity of each LED is programmable, allowing users to develop their own unique strategies and sequences.
WHY DIGITAL?
When you are out on track, monitoring the performance of your vehicle can be vital in maintaining durability and improving your speed. But traditional, fixed-scale gauges are limiting, and trying to keep an eye on a large cluster of instruments while racing is almost impossible.
Customization
There are many advantages of using a single digital display, not least of which is the ability to customise screen layouts. MoTeC displays are designed for flexibility, allowing drivers to configure multiple 'pages' with the information they most want to see at any given time, for example during practice, qualifying and race. This might include RPM, lap time details, gear, fuel and engine vitals. During qualifying, drivers will usually want a running lap time comparison showing gain/loss against a reference lap, and during a race they might want to see the lap number and fuel remaining.
User-defined preferences
Unit preferences are selectable—Fahrenheit or Celsius, psi or kPa, kilometers or miles—and unlike analogue gauges, scales can be defined and redefined. This allows users to hone in on particular RPM ranges, pressures or temperatures as desired. And if another sensor is added, instead of requiring a separate gauge, it is simply configured as a new selectable channel.
Warnings
Each numerical item is programmable and can be overridden by user-defined conditions or warning messages. Warnings are one of the key benefits of a digital display, and many a racer will attest that for this reason alone MoTeC displays are well worth the investment. Warnings can be programmed for dangers such as low oil pressure, high engine temperature or wheel lock up, alerting drivers to take action that could prevent costly damage.
