The information that can be displayed:
- Trip distance (from corner to corner)
- Trip 2 distance (the total stage distance)
- Stopwatch
- Current speed
- Avarage speed
- Deviation from ideal position
- Stopwatch that is stopped every 100 meters for readability (for driving on tables)
- Counting down stopwatch to pre-programmed (roadbook) points
- Finish line counting down stopwatch
- Finish line counting down distance
Every Alma 1 (XL) tripmeter has the possibility to connect external display. Therefore, a external display can always be added in a later stage to the tripmeter.
A possible setup is an external display with the trip distance in front of the co-pilote for extra emphasis together with an external display at the driver with the deviation from the ideal position so that he can stay where he needs to be on the stage. In this setup, the co-pilote can do the necessary adjustments but does not have to communicate to the driver himself while the driver sees his own ideal position. For cars with a bad speedometer, you can even add an extra external display in front of the co-driver with the speed displayed.. (or 1 double external display)
LED Indicator:
The External display has an 3-color Led indicator at the front. This indicator led can be set to 2 modes
- Maximum Speed indication
- Deviation from ideal position
In the Maximum speed mode, the LED will turn blue at 90% of the set maximum speed. At the maximum speed, the led will turn red and an internal potential free relais is activated to which you can connect any other devices like a indicator lamp etc.
In the Deviation from the ideal position mode, you can set a distance in meters in which the led will turn green. If you are below the lower boundary, the led will be blue as in indicaiton that you should go faster. Over the maximum boundary, the led will turn red as an indication that you should slow down.
External Display Off-Road:
The External display Off-Road is exactly the same as the normal external display but in a splash-proof housing. The Off-Road version is specially made for Off-Road driving or open cars where the tripmaster is open to the weather circumstances.
