Introducing AEM DashDesign
The AEM Color Dash Display and CAN Logger includes the AEM CD-7 / CD-7L color display and AEM
DashDesign editing software. Screen pages are designed graphically. The screen layout displayed in AEM
DashDesign is identical to the layout displayed on the AEM CD-7 / CD-7L.
In addition to the graphical display editor, AEM DashDesign also provides a comprehensive setup editor to
program the input, output and mathematical functionality of the AEM CD-7 / CD-7L.
Once created, setups are uploaded to the AEM CD-7 / CD-7L via a USB link.

Installing AEM DashDesign
AEM DashDesign is distributed as a single install executable. To install, run AEM DashDesign Setup.exe and
follow the on-screen instructions.
Installing USB Drivers
The installation program will automatically install the USB drivers required by AEM CD-7 / CD-7L. However, on
rare occasions, it may be necessary to install the USB drivers manually. To do this:
·Connect the AEM CD-7 / CD-7L to the PC.
·When the add new hardware wizard appears, select "Install from a list or specific location" and click Next.
·Choose "Search for the best driver in these locations" and check "Include this location in the search"
·Click the Browse button and navigate to the Drivers folder sub folder in the AEM DashDesign installation
directory.
·Click the Next button and the driver installation will proceed automatically.
VDM for GPS speed and lap timing
The AEM Vehicle Dynamics Module, PN 30-2203 can be used in conjunction with the AEM CD-7L dash for lap
timing and track mapping features.
VDM Features:
·GPS latitude & longitude delivers AEMdata track map functionality via AEMnet CANbus
·Easily Add GPS, lateral G, altitude, pitch and roll data to engine data logs!
·Simply install it in the correct position, connect to AEMnet and the data streams through AEMnet CANbus!

·Continuous time data can be used for Infinity USB log file naming
·Accelerometers supply all 3-axis acceleration data for chassis tuning
·Ideal for road racers who want to use the gyrometer data for suspension adjustments
·Perfect for drag racers who want G-loads and wheel stand data
·GPS vehicle speed, heading and altitude logged for data analysis, lap comparisons
·Status LED indicates power & GPS signal
·Weather resistant enclosure with IP67 rated GPS/GLONASS antenna
Go to Setup | Lap Timing... Select the GPS button to configure for GPS lap timing. A virtual start/finish line
creation feature allows you to use the beacon input (violet wire in flying lead harness) to set a virtual start/finish
line. While driving the course, press the momentary beacon switch when you cross the start/finish line. Hold
for a few seconds until the left and right LEDs flash. The system captures the location information when you
first press the button. Holding for a few seconds eliminates the likelihood of false triggering the input. You can
define your virtual track width in the dialog window. Set to the approximate width of the track surface plus
some extra. The dash creates a start finish line the width of the Track Width/m setting perpendicular to the
heading when the start finish is set. It then checks whether the previous two points cross this line; the only
caveat being that the heading is +/- 90 degrees of the original heading.

Installation
The VDM is equipped with an AEMnet connector (power, ground, and CAN)
so that it is a true plug and play experience when used with other AEMnet
products such as the Infinity ECU.
Ideally, the VDM module should be installed near the center (both fore/aft
and side-to-side) of the vehicle and as low as possible. For example, the
module may be mounted to the floor of the vehicle between the two front
seats. The module should be mounted using the provided "hook-and-loop"
material or may be more rigidly mounted using fasteners through the
module's mounting ears. Take care to avoid over-torquing mounting
fasteners, if used.
The external markings on the module indicate the orientation of the
accelerometer and gyro axes. Typically, the module is mounted so that
"+x Accel" is pointed towards the front of the vehicle in the direction of
travel. Please make note of this orientation for use when analyzing the
data later on.
The antenna should be mounted in a location where the top is pointed
towards, and has a clear view of, the sky. The bottom of the antenna is
magnetic or additional hook-and-loop material is provided for mounting; the
dashboard or rear package shelf are not acceptable locations. The
antenna should be mounted as high as possible in the center of a metal
roof away from other antennas or structures. If the roof of the vehicle is
non-metallic then a flat piece of metal at least five inches in diameter, to
function as a ground plane, should be fabricated upon which the antenna
should be placed.

Status LED
There is a status LED located on the top of the VDM module that gives an indication of its operating status,
specifically the quality of the current GPS signal:

Channels / Data
GPS
The VDM utilizes an internal 5Hz GPS/GLONASS receiver with a matching external active antenna. Faster
time to fix, and better global coverage is afforded by the support of both the GPS and GLONASS
constellations. The module is designed with an internal super capacitor that will retain the last known satellite
position (ephemeris) while power is disconnected from the VDM for up to 2.5 hours. This will allow for a very
fast time to fix (<1 sec typ) once the device is turned on again; if power is removed for greater than the 2.5
hours then the time to fix will increase. The capacitor is automatically recharged and never needs to be
replaced such as is the case with a more traditional battery.
The following GPS channels are output on AEMnet for logging on your Infinity ECU or other device:
