Do’s & Don’ts
• Install the T DASH with the connection on either the left or the right side, at
start-up the T DASH will detect the right orientation for the display and buttons
• Install the T DASH in the cockpit at a position where the driver will have a good
view on it in all racing conditions
• Make sure the T DASH is securely mounted with help of the M3 mounting option
to avoid detachment during racing conditions
• Do not install the T DASH in a place where it is in direct sunlight
• Do not install the T DASH in a place where it is in a spray of water in rainy racing
conditions

RACELINK DIAGNOSTICS
After power-up the T DASH will show diagnostics on the connected Racelink.
No Racelink connected
In case the T DASH shows ‘NO DATA’ at start up;
switch off the power, check all connections and power
up again.
Racelink connected
GPS
Make sure the connected Racelink has good GPS reception by placing its GPS antenna
with a clear view to the sky.
A green number of GPS satellites (GPS Lock) is necessary before you go on
track.
RF
Make sure the connected Racelink has good RF reception by placing its antenna with a
clear view around, i.e. to the sides of the track. A white received signal RF number
means that there is a MYLAPS X2 Link available. From Racelink FW version 2.6:
When this number turns green, the track personnel has made a connection to
your Racelink enabling on-board marshalling.
BAT
The Racelink battery status is shown here. Above 30% this number will turn green.
PWR
The connected power voltage of the Racelink is shown here. Above 10V this number will
turn green.
When the Bluetooth icon appears, a T DASH app is connected to the T DASH
White = X2 Link Idle
Green = X2 Link Active

SPEEDOMETER
When the speed is higher than 5kph for 3 seconds and as long as not in GPS Lap timer
mode (i.e. not passed a laptrigger yet) the T DASH will show the current speed and the
maximum speed.
Set Lap Timer Mode
To enable lap timing, a lap trigger needs to be set. When no lap trigger is set yet
T DASH will ask to set it. Push the down button once while passing the finish line.
Best performance is achieved when passing the finish line in a straight line in the middle
of the track at relative low speed. Do not stand still when setting the laptrigger!
When the ‘Press to set laptrigger’ text shows in red font, GPS accuracy is too low to
set a lap trigger. Make sure your Racelink (GPS antenna) has a clear view to the sky.

As long as the lap trigger is set and it is located close to your current location T DASH
will not ask to set the laptrigger anymore. Passing the laptrigger location will start the
lap timer mode.
Clear Laptrigger
From the diagnostic screen push the down button. T DASH will ask to clear the
laptrigger.
When in lap timer mode, stand still and start a new session to go to the diagnostic
screen first.
After acknowledging the clear trigger. T DASH will ask to set the laptrigger again when
you start driving and the T DASH is in Speedometer mode.

GPS LAP TIMER
To generate lap times the T DASH needs to know the location of the Finish Line on the
track. See the Speedometer section of this document to learn how to set a so called
‘laptrigger’ manually when crossing the finish line.
As lap times will be based on enhanced GNSS positioning information lap times will be
shown at a resolution of 1 digit i.e. 0.1 seconds in case of a connected Racelink Club and
2 digits i.e. 0.01 seconds in case of a connected Racelink Pro.
Like in high end race series, color coding is used to classify lap times:
Best lap time (green) after 3 laps Faster lap than previous (white)
Slower lap than previous (yellow)
Best lap
Gap to best

Start a new free practice session
While in lap timer mode push the down button once.
This starts a new stint and will reset the number of laps and best lap time. It will also
insert a ‘STOP’ in the lap times list.
Recall last lap times
While in lap timer mode and as long as the up button is pushed the T-DASH will show
the last lap times set. After power down the lap times list will be cleared.

ON BOARD MARSHALLING
When to expect flags?
It is important to know when to expect flags on the T DASH.
Flags can only be sent by Race Control when full track coverage with the MYLAPS X2
Link system is available and Race Control is on active duty.
See the RACELINK DIAGNOSTICS chapter of this document to know how to check if flags
are available. Check with the track personnel if you are not sure.
When no flag is received since start-up of your MYLAPS Racelink device the T DASH will
show a ‘no flags’ icons in the bottom right corner.
Example ‘no flags’ situation in laptimer mode:
No flags!
In the situation that a flag is out but the link with Race Control is lost, the flag situation
is unknown and therefor the T DASH will show a ‘Link lost’ warning.
Please be aware that as long as the link is lost the flag situation on your
T DASH cannot be guaranteed!
Important:
Always keep observing the marshal posts and personnel around the track.
Pay extra attention to the marshal posts in above situations or when the T
DASH doesn’t show any information!

HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
1. Since the display window is made of glass, avoid mechanical impacts such as
dropping from a high position
2. If pressure is applied to the display window surface it may be damaged
3. When the surface of the display window is dirty use a dry cloth, never use a
solvent as the display window will get damaged
4. When dirt like soil is in the display window it is recommended to use tape (e.g.
Scotch mending tape 810) to remove the dirt before cleaning the display window
with a dry cloth. This is important to avoid scratches on the surface of the display
window.
Failure to observe the above precautions may void the warranty.
