It still works, but only when you disable the "mini-GUI". For maybe over a year now, Analysis versions have installed with this new feature as default. It gives you a poofteenth more screen real estate with each R-T graphic. PS The Corvette still works too, but it is almost impossible to i...

Those Peterson ports look just the ticket; I daresay for a big ticket!
How long have they been on the market?
I made mine in 1988. Maybe I should have gone into production :cry:

You'd think an Al rad tank would have good enough conductivity :?:
Is it a standard BMW part?

Ah! Cotton Buds The ear-cleaners we shouldn't stick in our ears - I find it quite addictive - ah that's better. I'm mech eng too. Worked for GM and Ford but that doesn't exactly fill one with inspiration and knowledge. My serious attempts at measurement of water temps have been on engine dynos and i...

Well done . I am not familiar with the component you have chosen but will research it in due course. Q-tip is also a description I have not come across in my travels. What is it It seems rude to ask, but are you sure you have the radiator one on the inlet, or do you mean the inlet to the engine? We ...

I can't remember which way it works, but the Beacon Input needs to be either switched down to ground, or up to 5V. I recall that Tim Hoverd played with this function with hardware that should have worked... What I was optimistacally trying to achieve was to place lap markers in the log data file tha...

Have you tried anything yet yourself The Beacon Input is what you would use, but it does not seem to be "well supported". I've been engineering cars, not driving around circuits myself lately, so I have not had the opportunity to test a simple switch. I have, however, been able to hook up ...

Yaw from affordable rate gyros is not very accurate. Perhaps you have seen, as I have, surprisingly good raw data that only has very slow drift of the DC offset, which on the face of it integrates quite well. Unfortunately, taking the next step, comparing this to the change of heading or path curvat...

I have just installed 7.3.20 and the feature still works on my old data, so I doubt that there is a bug in the new version that will be easy to trace and fix. It is not impossible that there is something peculiar to your laptop that is not in harmony with the Cosmos... Install 7.3.20 on the work des...

On this one, the only way you could "disable" something is by not installing the new version properly...
Failing to run the Uninstall before installing 7.3.20 (or any version) could cause this.

Do parts of the background map load before the process is halted? This is what often happens fore me. It is a moderate pain ITA, but repeated requests used to get me there in the end. If not evident in the picture itself, the progress dialogue would report that a greater proportion of the task was a...

Have you installed a new version of Analysis recently?

If so, did you use the RT uninstall utility first?
This must be done always :roll:

Otherwise, there are no settings (unless new ones have been introduced in the latest release, which I'm yet to install) that you can change.

Sneak up on it with "low quality" and full size first. Sometimes it can take more than half a dozen attempts. I have not been using the feature recently. Maxx may know something wrt the 30-60 mins, but in the past I have been able to build a complete "high quality" (when Google M...
