The Stack MFD comes standard with 14 inputs (enough to handle most drivetrain and driver input data streams) and can be expanded to monitor up to 45 channels for more advanced users. System includes internal voltage channel, 3 +/- 6g internal accelerometers, and lap sensor channel standard as well as 4 Universal pulse (speed) / analog (0-5v) inputs and 6 standard analog (0-5v) inputs. Lap beacon receiver and wheel speed sensor standard, to enable engine RPM, wheelspeed, g-force data and track mapping out of the box.
Stack MFD’s have 32Mb of memory, and user selectable channel recording frequencies of up to 200Hz (200 samples per second) with 10 bit resolution (16 bit digital inputs optional), with a maximum system sample rate of 4000 samples per second for a total of 20 channels able to be recorded at maximum frequencies for extremely detailed data analysis.
Optional system upgrades include:
- Telemetry (via radio or GSM cellular modems)
- GPS Compatibility
- ECU CANbus compatibility for streamlined installation
- Synchronized video logging
- Additional Input Modules
- 5 stage sequential shift light

ST8999 Predictive Lap Timing Option
The Stack Predictive Lap Time System sets a new standard in real time driver display technology, providing information drivers have only ever previously dreamt of: constantly updated, highly accurate prediction of the next lap time!
This system continuously calculates how long it has taken to get to the current position on the lap and, based on the best previous lap, it already "knows" the driver's best time from this point to complete the lap. The combination of the two times provides the predicted lap time.
DataPro Analysis software
DataPro Designer Software (part of the system package) facilitates easy “Drag-and-drop” configuration of all elements of the data acquisition system. Simply select your Driver Display System and Engineering System from the drop down lists provided, and set-up each module to meet your project’s specific requirements.
Version 5 of Stack’s signature DataPro software is included with each MFD system and includes a host of easy to use data analysis features listed below:
- Track Mapping from recorded vehicle data (inertial or GPS)
- Pre-configured layouts to help novice users
- Logbook feature for organized digital record keeping about vehicle setup (tire pressures & compounds, damper settings, temperature and weather conditions, etc.)
- Fully customizable and user configurable Layouts
- Simple system configuration provided by DataPro Designer
- Layout Manager allows Layouts to be grouped together for different tasks and users
- Docking Panes feature means that a data analysis pane is never hidden
- Lap Normalization ensures all laps overlay accurately for data comparison
- Toggle between Distance and Time base Charting
- Overlay Chart data from different, or same, run
- Show data value at cursor position on the Chart
- Timeline and Corner Radius Charts

- Infinite zoom-in into any section of data
- Track Map shows the actual track position relating to the cursor position on the Charts
- Overlay different types of parameter on the same chart e.g. Steering and Lateral G
- When zoomed-in to section of a lap the area under analysis is highlighted on the Track Map
- Zoom level can be set through Chart or Track Map
- Simultaneous update of all panes when zoom level or highlighted area of chart or map is changed
- Beacon Alignment allows runs with different beacon locations to be accurately aligned
- Run Marker editor allows missing lap times to be entered into the data
- Run Notes record set up information for the run
