TestLogger products are splitted in to multiple parts, so first you may ask "How to get started?". This arcticle gives you guidance where to start.

Concept

Before going to into details actions, it's good to understand different applications what those are used for.

TestLogger Manager

Manager is the original tool developed by TestLogger and designed for recording run data like lap times, comments, setups etc. This tool will work as the long term data storage and central point for TestLogger services.

TestLogger Collector

All data logging hardware goes under name Collector. This includes the main units for logging, sensors, cables, etc.

TestLogger Analyzer

Analyzer is the analytics software mainly designed for Collector users, but nothing prevents to use for sim racing or full scale motorsports. 

TestLogger Connector

Connector is the link between Collector hardware to TestLogger Manager and TestLogger Analyzer. Connector allows to configure the Collector hardware and it also handles data file transfer from Collector. Connector generates data files which are compatible with Analyzer, but it also create runs and store the data file in Manager.

No matter what is your use case, we recommend to setup TestLogger Manager before doing anything else. Check your user settings, create cars, tracks etc, so your base is in place before doing anything else. Even you are not planning to use Manager in it's full potential, it's worth to set up the basics in Manager.
