Connecting SimHub
Feed the dashboard with live telemetry over the SimHub Custom Serial plugin.
Pitrig reads newline-delimited telemetry over the serial link the board selects. SimHub sends it through the Custom Serial Devices plugin, and the configurator generates the profile that plugin imports.
Setting it up
- 1In the configurator, open the SimHub profile panel and export a profile. Dashboard only sends the fields your dashboard reads; all telemetry sends the complete catalogue.
- 2In SimHub, open Custom Serial Devices and use Import settings to load the exported file.
- 3Select the Pitrig serial port in SimHub and start the game.
- 4Close the configurator first. One serial port admits one process.
What travels over the link
Each line is a field identifier, a semicolon and a value. The catalogue holds 227 fields, and each one carries an update rate the profile applies.
| Rate | Frequency | Typical fields |
|---|---|---|
| fast | 60 Hz | RPM, speed, gear, throttle, brake |
| normal | 20 Hz | Fuel, temperatures, lap delta |
| slow | 5 Hz | Session state, position, weather |
| changes | On change | Lap count, best lap, flags |
Checking the link
- The status lamp reports telemetry silence: if it says the feed is quiet, SimHub is not sending on that port.
- A wrong baud rate looks like a dead link rather than garbled text, because the framing never matches.
- A field the profile does not map sends an empty value, which marks only that field unavailable.
