Missing laps

Weave got a small big problem, it seems that we once in a wile are missing some laps ! After a race there will be a difference in laps but we are sure that they haven the same amount off laps. If we analyse the data off the laps then they are registered but not in the total count. We only see some funny times and they are marks in red( in the data) And when there are funny times that as nothing to do with somebody is off track ore something like that.

What can we do?

Can you give more information on your track system , is it analogue or digital ?

We have an analogue system, if you want to see the track? Just watch the last page off the new scaleauto catalog! We even tested a different counter system and then this problem doesn’t appear anymore, but we don’t like the graphics off this system.

ok you have a analogue track but what kind of interface you use ? (DS300, phidget interface , parallel port, etc...?)

I think Pc Lap counter reject some laps because of the minimum lap time.
Check the minimum lap time settings in pclc, i suggest you to read also this topic
https://pclapcounter.forumotion.com/t549-difference-between-reject-laps-less-than-minimum-lap-time

I also suggest you to check the message part of pclapcounter , normally you should see the reason of reject laps....

Sounds logic, but can you suggest a minimal time? Our track is 63 meters an the fastest laps we drive are around 9.800 seconds for the klasse 1 and up to 11.000 seconds general for the scaleauto ! And in case off the pictures i send you there was no deslotting invalved.

What do you mean by message part of pclapcounter, where can I find that? But why are some laps mark in red?, doesn't say that anything and why only at one driver?

A possible value for the minimum lap time in PCLC can the best lap time minus 1 second.

Here you can see the Pc Lap Counter message part:
Missing laps Pclc5_gui_update_75

A possible reason for a red lap time is a big difference between the DS lap time and PCLC lap time.
You can also have red lap time when the lap time is bigger than the Alert lap time (Alert lap time in track setting).
