C185 5" Color Display Logger with USB

A 5" display and a 250 MB professional data logger standard on every unit, with 4 CAN buses and a 79-pin Autosport connector built for teams that log from day one.

Overview

What Is It

MoTeC's professional-level display and logger combined, logging standard, not an add-on.

Where the C125 is a display first with logging as an upgrade, the C185 is a logger from the moment it ships. Every unit includes 250 MB of internal logging memory (expandable to 500 MB) at up to 1,000 samples per second, along with MoTeC's i2 Standard analysis software. The vivid 125 mm (5") screen is the same anti-reflective, high resolution panel as the C125, and it carries the same ten programmable full-color LEDs for shift lights and warning alerts.

The C185 also steps up the electronics underneath: 4 configurable CAN buses instead of 2, a much larger standard input/output count, and a rugged 79-pin Autosport connector in place of the C125's 34-pin connector. That makes it the right call for programs that know they need serious logging and I/O from day one, rather than adding it later. If your program is happy to start smaller and add logging when needed, see the C125 instead.

FAQ

Common Questions

Does the C185 need an enable code to start logging?

No. The C185 ships with 250 MB of logging memory active out of the box. That's the key difference from the C125, which needs a Logging Enable Code before it logs anything.

Why does the C185 use a different connector than the C125?

The C185 carries a much larger standard I/O count and 4 CAN buses, so it uses a 79-pin Autosport connector rather than the C125's 34-pin connector to support the extra pins.

What does the Advanced Functions upgrade actually add?

Advanced Maths and Channel Maths functions, plus it expands your available 2D and 3D tables from 4 each to 16 each, and your user conditions from 20 to 50.

Are the enable codes tied to the specific unit?

Yes, MoTeC enable codes are issued against your unit's serial number. Have that on hand when purchasing an upgrade.
