Product Information

Full details

The Terratrip 202 Classic GeoTrip GPS Car Rally/Racing/Race Trip Computer is designed for rally and racing enthusiasts seeking accurate distance tracking without complex calibration. Its primary benefit is ease of use and installation thanks to GPS technology, eliminating the need for speed sensors and manual calibration. A potential caveat is that performance may be affected in areas with very dense forestry where satellite signals are consistently weak, though the device offers a fallback to traditional speed probes.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Do I need to install speed sensors on my wheels?

No, the Terratrip 202 Classic GeoTrip primarily uses GPS for distance calculation, eliminating the need for traditional speed sensors and calibration.

How accurate is the GPS distance tracking?

The inbuilt GPS unit is proven accurate to 0.2% of the total distance driven, offering high precision for rally and racing conditions.

What happens if I drive through an area with no GPS signal?

If you have traditional speed probes connected, the computer will automatically switch to them. If not, it will estimate the distance traveled during the signal loss.

Can I use different sized tires with this unit?

Yes, because the unit relies on GPS for distance measurement, it is unaffected by changes in wheel or tire sizes, so no recalibration is needed.

How do I switch between miles and kilometers?

You can calibrate the unit for miles or kilometers using the dedicated calibration functions and buttons on the keypad.

Does it have a feature to manually adjust the total distance display?

Yes, the Terratrip 202 Classic GeoTrip allows for manual adjustment of the total distance display, including a 'Distance Fly' feature for fast adjustment.

Can I display the distance on a separate screen?

Yes, there is an option for a remote display that shows the interval distance, allowing for clearer viewing during fast-paced driving.

Troubleshooting

Device not powering on

Check the 12V power connection. Ensure the fuse in the power lead is intact. Try a different power source if possible.

Inaccurate distance readings

Ensure the GPS antenna has a clear view of the sky. If using speed probes, verify their connection and condition. Perform a manual calibration if necessary.

GPS signal lost frequently

Reposition the GPS antenna for better sky view. Consider using the optional speed probe inputs for continuous tracking in areas with poor reception.

Interval distance not updating

Check if the 'Split' or 'Freeze' function is activated. Reset the interval distance if needed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly easier installation and setup due to GPS technology.
  • Consistent accuracy unaffected by wheel/tire size changes.
  • Reliable distance tracking even with wheelspin.
  • Automatic fallback to speed probes in low-signal areas.
  • User-friendly interface with numerical keypad and LED backlighting.

Cons

  • May experience intermittent signal loss in extremely dense forests or tunnels.
  • Accuracy is dependent on a clear satellite signal.
  • Reliance on GPS may not suit all types of racing or specific event regulations.
  • Requires an optional external antenna for optimal GPS reception in challenging environments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Mounting: Securely mount the Terratrip unit in a visible and accessible location within the vehicle's cockpit.
  2. Power Connection: Connect the device to your vehicle's 12V power supply.
  3. GPS Antenna: For optimal performance, attach the external GPS antenna to a location with a clear view of the sky (e.g., the dashboard or roof).
  4. Optional Speed Probes: If using speed probes, connect them to the designated inputs on the unit.
  5. Calibration: The unit can be calibrated to miles or kilometers using the `CAL` button. For initial setup, you may need to perform a manual distance calibration once to ensure precise readings.

Compatibility:

  • The Terratrip 202 Classic GeoTrip is designed for use in cars participating in rallies, races, or other timed events.
  • It is compatible with standard vehicle 12V electrical systems.
  • It supports the connection of up to two traditional speed probes (sold separately) for backup.

Care:

  • Clean the unit with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Ensure all connections are secure to prevent issues with power or signal reception.
  • Protect the unit from excessive moisture and extreme temperatures.
