Live Capture Of "Orbits" Race Data

Oct 5, 2006

I have a program running on my computer called Orbits.

What Orbits does is monitor a race track, and via a transponder in each race car, when a race car crosses the start/finish line Orbits will record that infomation.

The orbits program continually feeds data out the port 50000.

I can start hyper-terminal (yes the free one that comes with windows) and create a link the the computer running orbits. I use IP and port (Ex. 10.0.0.1 and port 50000).

As the race is going on I can see the data in hyperterminal: Below is a sample.

$F,9999,"00:00:00","19:52:40","02:09:14","Green "
$F,9999,"00:00:00","19:52:41","02:09:15","Green "
$F,9999,"00:00:00","19:52:42","02:09:16","Green "
$F,9999,"00:00:00","19:52:43","02:09:17","Green "

What I would like to do Is to get this data LIVE into excel, as the race is going on.

I have no idea of to get this data into Excel since It is not saving it as a file.

How To Capture The Value From A Running Live Value

Jun 9, 2008

I have a cell (for example, "A1") which is inserted with a WINROS formula to retrieve some data into my spreadsheet. And it is running live at all time.

Actually, I can't think of any formulas to capture the value from cell "A1" to "B1". Because I do not want the value that I captured into cell "B1" running live. I just want the value "B1" fixed after captured.

Logging Live Data

Nov 30, 2008

I'd like to log live update data continuously,i.e. as the data in the cell changes. The problem I'm facing is that the data comes in at uneven intervals-- ranging from 30 to 50 ticks per second. So I can't really use a timer function. I need to use some function which saves the data as the cell value changes. So, for example, if cell A1 gets updated continuously, cell B1 could save the first value of A1 and then cell B2 could save the second value of cell A1-- and so forth.

Multiple Live Feed / Data

Aug 28, 2009

I have set an excel spreadsheet set up to update live data from a URL every 5 minutes. However I am wanting to do try and save a bit of time if possible.

Basically I am monitoring horses bought on a game website. Each horse has the same URL except for the number at the end which goes up in 1 increments. The URL is already set up and when the horse is bought it changes from being blank to having the horses details etc.

At the minute I am able to autofill cells with each uinique URL using fill, then series menu. This is so I dont have to manually enter each URL, as hundreds may be bought each day so it would take too long to do this.

My question is this, am i able to have a automatic series linked to the 'data from web' function in data tab, instead of having to manually adjusting each URL for each individual horse.

Adding Submit Buttons To Transfer Data To Live Spreadsheet

Mar 18, 2014

I would like to set up a maintenance register where I would have:

worksheet 1 - a page where staff can choose a location and choose a maintenance issue and hit submit
worksheet 2 - after they have hit submit the detail will appear in designated cells in worksheet 2 (a ledger of maintenance issues). so each submit should send the info to a new line in worksheet 2.

I have a basic knowledge of Excel and have used formulas and functions before but not VBA/Macros. Any step by step through setting up the submit button and macro correctly?

I've tried to do Worksheet("Register").Range("A2").Value = Worksheet("Request").Range("A1") after installing a push button but all I get is errors.

Race Car Driver Comparision Tool

3. I am trying to create something that will do the following.

determine the lap distance at which the driver is braking (the point where speed decreases). I would like to do this for each corner and each driver. I am struggling to find a way of determining how to read the "lap distance" value when the corresponding "speed" value stops increasing and actually starts to decrease. This is the point at which the driver is braking

Find And Capture Data

Jan 24, 2007

I need to find a term "aa" and upon finding this term, the term on the right must be "bb" before we capture the number. Output will be 15 for this case.

Note that we do not know which cell "aa" will occur in, but the term "bb" will always be on the right of "aa". Can anybody help me with this? I have attached an example for your reference. Hopfully by modifying the below code, i can get the value i desired.

Sub test2()

Dim xx As Variant

Set rng = Cells.Find(What:="aa" , After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt _
:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _
True)
If Not rng Is Nothing Then xx = rng.Offset(0, 3).Value
MsgBox xx
If rng Is Nothing Then xx = 0
MsgBox xx

Sum Of Lap Times In Order To Give Race Time At Any Lap

Apr 13, 2009


=C4+(0.3*(C5-((C2-1)*C3)))

Where C4 is 'Qualifying time', C5 is 'Starting fuel', C2 is 'Lap number' and C3 is 'Fuel consumption'. I also plan to make the 0.3 a changeable variable.

I'm not fussed as to whether or not this is a realistic function that would work in a real race, it's only hypothetical. However I would like to have a function that would give me the over all race time at any given lap, not just the lap time for it.

Formula To Capture Data In Cells That Are After It

Aug 12, 2009

I have a moving average spreadsheet that I am having trouble with. In column F of 'Data for Pivot' Tab, I have a set of data that doesn't begin populating until 101 data points (cell C8 in 'Mov_Avg_Chart' is the input; in this cell F138 of 'Data for Pivot' tab) after data begins populating in Column E of 'Data for Pivot' Tab (in this case data begins populating in Column E in row 38).

What I would like to do is have the data in cells F38 to F137 = the value in cell F138. From there on forward (cells F138 and onwards), I would like the formula to calculate data in the same way as it is currently calculating it. That is, I would like the values in cells F38 to F137 be 0.00110 (in the current example). However, the data will be constantly changing. Thus, sometimes the data in column F will begin at a different cell than cell F138. In essence, I want the formula: when column E begins populating data but column F has not, I want those column F values to equal the value of the first populated value in column F (which is usually numerous cells below this value).

I just can't seem to get this one right after spending considerable time on it. I would appreciate any help you can give on this.

Combobox Data Capture From Other Workbook

Nov 20, 2007

how data capturing works, using controls. I try to explain what I mean. I have a userform with a combobox that allows to select data from a worksheet in another workbook (database). Using VBA, I'm asked to define the "source" for the combobox. I don't understand the difference between controlsource and row source because when I close the userform, I find only the first field filled in (column "A"), while I would like the entire row to be copied.I also would like to have an "ok" button to allow me for multiple selection. In other words:

I select the desired data from the combobox
I click on the "ok" button ahd this event should copy the data (entire row) selected via the combobox on my worksheet without closing the userform in order to allow me to select other data on the same session. The row to copy data into is selected using the firstemptyrow method..

Consolidating Live Tables

Nov 26, 2008

I have two tables that pull data from two different SQL tables via an ODBC connection and refresh every 5 minutes. The table headers etc are all identical (it is support call information FYI) but what I want to do is display those tables as one as opposed to two seperate tables - can this be done relatively easily and hopefully without the use of VBA? (Unless anyone is willing to provide the code of course!!)
