Background

Scalextric have not designed any digital sensors that can be used for Pit lane car detection. When the original C7030 6 car Powerbase was plentiful it was possible to modify and use them, but it was still difficult, expensive and not that satisfactory. So on the launch of the C7041 Scalextric Pit Lane Game we decided that it was a good basis for becoming the solution for providing in and out ID information to support the Race Management Programs available. It offered an easier lower cost solution, requiring us to reprogram the processor from scratch and adding an additional sensor plus an external interface for connection to a PC or laptop.

Introduction

Pit-Pro is created by re-programming the Pit Lane Game’s 16F716 PIC microcontroller. It provides Pit IN detection and communicates this information via an Aux style connection to a PC. SSDC from Andy Wallace has options for Pit-Pro and will recognise this data, as will PCLapcounter and RCS64.
Pit-Pro also uses its lights to display the fuel level for each car, and the Large Red and Green Lights to indicate the Race Condition. In SSDC the lights are even used for a race start count down, and in PCLapcounter they are used to indicate that a car has incurred a penalty drive through. All features are at the control of the software package, hence will change as the programs develop.

The Super De-Luxe version has two straights with sensors. When you connect BOTH straights it disables the tower sensor which means the tower can be placed anywhere in the pit lane or circuit.
