EVENT CAPTAIN: Danny Bocci
ON-SITE LOCATION: EV Tech Area
The energy meter will be installed during accumulator scrutineering. The proper function of the energy meter will be evaluated during the EV active scrutineering. EV teams must have an energy meter installed in the vehicle to compete in dynamic events.
Teams must provide energy meter data for each dynamic event. To download the energy meter the teams must bring their vehicle to the energy meter download location in the EV Tech Area. The energy meter download connector must be readily available to allow the data to be downloaded. Once downloaded the data will be made available to the team if desired. Teams may choose to have their energy meter downloaded at any time and are encouraged to do so after each dynamic event.
The energy meter logs data anytime it has GLV power, and the TS voltage is greater than 50V. It will hold ~3.5 hours of data after which it will stop logging. It is the team’s responsibility to manage the recording capacity of their energy meter by having it downloaded and cleared. Lack of data due to a full datalogger or failure to provide the required inputs to the energy meter will be treated as a violation.
