which to use PB or PClap ?

Hi
Ive finally gotten my hands on a 1.08 PB and
have installed PCLAP ver 5.18
The question is does the PClap work with or seperatly from the ninco PB ?
ie: can I start race on Ninco PB and have the PCLap start up opon crossing start finish line or
is it two seperate things? Do I just use Pclap for every thing and just set the nico pb to like 999 laps ?
Also is the fuel management tied to the ninco PB or just to PClap ?
If I set up the Ninco PB to a "PS"race it doesnt seem to signal out to the Pclap counter
thanks

hello,

Pc Lap Counter consider your ND powerbase just as a "sensor" , ND race setting signal is not process by PCLC but PCLC process the PB buttons:

In the ND digital interface of Pc Lap Counter when you tick the option “Process the powerbase buttons” then Pc Lap Counter will process the powerbase buttons like this:
- START on the powerbase start the race in PCLC with countdown , if you don't want the countdown just set the race option "Start Countdown" to 0.
- PAUSE on the powerbase pause the race in PCLC.
- RESUME on the powerbase resume the race in PCLC.

Fuel management with Ninco Digital, you have two possibilities:
1) In the race setting set “Fuel management” to OFF :
If you setup the interface to get the fuel level from the powerbase then Pc Lap Counter will display fuel tank information comming from the powerbase and will alert you when the tank fuel reach the low level , when the fuel tank is empty Pc Lap Counter will also alert you (please look at your Ninco digital manual for more information about fuel management).
2) In the race setting set “Fuel management” to ON:
in that case Pc Lap Counter will ignore fuel tank information comming from the powerbase and will use the analoguec fuel management of Pc Lap Counter (base on lap time)

Thanks
I was turning those
settings on and off but couldnt
figure what each one was doing
to the settings .
I think Ive got it now

thanks
