Description
DynoDrive KESS3
With an OBD diagnostic port and data acquisition from the built-in GPS module, DynoDrive provides the car’s power and torque values, which can be exported and compared indefinitely in a reserved area.
The DynoDrive application allows you to revolutionize vehicle testing on the road, without incurring additional costs for dedicated hardware. The experience of testing a car is transformed into a unique opportunity to verify vehicle performance and evaluate the effectiveness of any modifications.
Thanks to DynoDrive, each road test will provide real and reliable values, which are a tangible parameter that certifies the work with state-of-the-art technology and the system’s ease of use.
Once activated, a new feature appears in the Alientech Suit panel as pictured below
Activation through Alientech Suite
With a guided and intuitive process, you can activate DynoDrive and use the function immediately: simply select the vehicle on which the test will be performed, set the necessary data for the calculation, and launch the test.
The accuracy and repeatability of performance calculation are guaranteed by the pairing of the technology that KESS3 uses for communication with the vehicle (via OBD) and GPS acquisition.Thanks to this system, DynoDrive allows for precise calculation of the vehicle’s position throughout the test, recording both the acceleration and deceleration phases for precise calculation of the dissipated power as well.
Quick and Customized Parameter Selection
DynoDrive allows for customizing parameters to achieve calculation precision as close to reality as possible. You can input vehicle data such as: vehicle and passengers’ mass (including any tools and luggage) and fuel level. Additionally, you can choose how to conduct the test by setting the starting engine RPM (1500/2000 rpm) and the gear in which you wish to perform the test (3rd/4th), to make the best use of available space and work in complete safety. All power test operations must be carried out only on a closed circuit or on a road not open to the public.
With DynoDrive, you can repeat the test countless times, comparing the data from each individual test. Despite atmospheric factors, such as external temperature, potentially influencing the test result, you can repeat the test under the same conditions, one after another. This ensures the neutrality of the environmental factor: the data depend exclusively on the vehicle.
Data Comparison and Sharing
DynoDrive provides a downloadable and shareable report of torque and power data. At the end of the test, the Dashboard automatically stores the torque and power values. In addition to numerical data, DynoDrive provides Cartesian graphs that can be compared by overlaying them to easily discern and compare curve differences at a glance. The software allows for comparing up to 3 tests simultaneously. To facilitate consultation, different colors and styles have been assigned to the curves of individual tests. But that’s not all: the values along with the graphs recorded in Dashboard can be easily exported in a .PDF sheet, that can be shared with the customer to verify the effectiveness of the intervention or to meet their desires.
