This is only a beta version of the new PC Analyser V2! It means it is not finished and not fully functional. At the moment, it is primary a viewer. When you have installed it, please check often for updates from the Help menu. Do not uninstall and install using the setup program. The "Check for Update" will check for a new version right away and update it while running.

Please report back any issues and suggestions to us!

This new PC Analyser is build from scratch to make it more flexible with the new sensors coming in the future. One of these sensors are the new G-force sensor used for track mapping.
Some of the new features are mentioned below.

PC Analyser V2 now uses the Office 2007 look and feel. The new menu system uses what is called a Ribbon, known from the Microsoft Office 2007 products. It gives a great number of new features on the user interface and it is way better looking than the old PC Analyser.

PC Analyser now use an advanced remapping of all data. To be able to fit data on track mapping and other functions, it is necessary to remap all the logged data to have the same fixed resolution and same track length. PC Analyser V2 handles this by the so called Reference Lap. This reference lap is the reference for all other laps and it is marked with the small golden icon shown on Lap 12 to the left. All other laps and all other drivers opened will be mapped to the same length as Lap 12. The resolution of all data are recalculated to 0.5 meter.

Because of the remapping, all data are now available at the same point for all drivers and all laps. This makes it possible to make the new Data Information window as shown to the left. If this window is visible, it will show all data for all drivers opened when the cursor is moved in the graph. No more need to try to measure the values from the graphs!

The Delta Time graph is able to show the time difference between to laps or two drivers for the selected laps. The graph is clearly marked with green and red background areas and the conclusion at the cursor position is shown in the Statusbar. This graph is very good to analyse where on the track the driver is gaining or loosing time.

One of the most important new features are the support for track mapping. The track is measure with the optional G-force sensor and is then refined in the Track Manager shown to the left. From the track manager, you can fine tune the track, add labels and icons, or even change the background. We you are finished with the track it is saved as a Reference Track and can now be used for the current data, data from the past or future data!
 

Previous saved Reference Tracks can be selected with from the new track select window. You can see all the available tracks and even see more information about the track like original filename, lap number, track length and more.
When the reference track is selected, it is automatic remapped to have the same length as the reference lap.

A new magnify window have been added to PC Analyser V2. It is a separate window that can be placed anywhere, even on another monitor, that shows a zoomed in view of the data near the cursor. It is all automatic, and it will zoom on all the graphs, including the track map like shown on the left. It is possible to adjust the alphablend to make it transparent if it need to be placed in front of other windows.

All setup are now combined in a tabbed window. No more slide out tabs from the left side!
All the settings can now be saved in setup files. Then different sessions can be prepare the setup before the data are needed and only load them when the driver finished the session.
With the use of a database, settings can be stored per run, and not only for the whole race.

When more than one driver is opened, the new setup compare window will give the quick overview of the settings. Here all the parameters from the setup window shown above, will be listed for each driver. You can collapse and expand the different sections to make it even more easy to read.

A new graphic view of the lap and split times have been added to this new version. The same kind of chart will be used for several other graphic presentations of different data. That could be min/max or distribution charts.

PC Analyser now supports three different colour schemes. The Blue is default, but Black and Silver is also available like in Office 2007. The examples above shows the three different schemes.
Layouts is another new feature. It is now possible to store and load different layouts. You could have one layout for comparing two drivers. One for engine analysis and perhaps one for temperature analysis.
Loading a layout will change PC Analyser's color, window placements and more like when you made the layout.

It is possible to choose colors per data channel, per color scheme. In the example above, a dark blue is selected for the start color and a light blue is selected for the end color. When more laps are selected, the laps are colorcoded between the start and end color and it is then possivle to see the different laps. Here the black color scheme is used.

Eventhough the laps are toned in color, you might sometime want to look at a single lap. With the "Highlight" function you can highlight a single lap. It is then drawn in another color on top of all the other laps and it is very clearly to see it.
The example to the left is showing the speed graph with a single lap highlighted.

With the "smooth" function nearly all graphs can be smoothed. On some graphs it makes sense, and on others not. The example above is showing a temperature graph without and with smooting.
You can turn the smooting on and off for every graph and it is possible to adjust how much the graph is smoothed. All is stored in the layout so you do only need to do it once.

Min/max. charts can be shown in different ways. The example above shows the minimum and maximum  for each lap and the average RPM value. The example below shows another graphic chart with the same data, but this time the average RPM is disabled. This and many other options can be set by right clicking on the chart.

The classic distribution chart is now available in new smarter edition. It can be shown in different ways and more options can be set by right clicking on the chart. The example above is showing the distribution of the engine RPM with a resolution of 500 RPM. The option to only use the RPM values when the kart is accelerating is selected.
The example below is showing another type of chart with speed instead of RPM.
