Aim XLog Compact Data Logger

The Aim XLog is a compact, lightweight, and waterproof data logger that records everything you need from your vehicle. With direct ECU connection, advanced GPS, built-in inertial platform, and wide expansion options, the XLog offers the same data-gathering capabilities as the Solo 2 DL, only in a smaller, screenless format that makes it perfect for motorcycles, single-seaters, or vehicles with limited cockpit space.

Why Choose the XLog Data Logger

The Aim XLog Data Logger is essentially a Solo 2 DL without the screen: offering the same logging power, precision, and expandability in a smaller, lighter package. For riders, racers, or anyone working with limited space but still demanding full-scale data analysis, the XLog is the perfect solution.

It provides a powerful solution for anyone who wants to capture and analyse their performance data without needing an on-board display. It integrates GPS lap timing, ECU data logging, acceleration and gyro measurements, and expansion support in a rugged unit that’s smaller than the palm of your hand.

XLog Features

The XLog calculates and records: 

  • Lap times
  • Sector times
  • Vehicle position and speed
  • 3D acceleration and gyro 
  • ECU data via CAN, K-Line or RS232 connections.
    (You can select the protocol of your car/bike among thousands of pre-defined protocols, or easily develop your own)
  • Digital RPM input from the primary of the coil (150-400V) or from a square wave (8-50V) when no ECU connection is available.

In addition, the XLog features a second CAN for connecting an external device or Aim Expansion, meaning you can add a Lambda Controller, analogue inputs, and a professional motorsport camera for enhanced functionalities.

XLog Connectivity

The XLog is designed to connect seamlessly to your vehicle and your data analysis workflow:

  • ECU Connection: Supports thousands of predefined CAN, RS232, or K-Line protocols, or you can build your own protocol via CAN builder.
  • Second CAN Option: Configure for Aim expansions, or connect additional sensors and third-party CAN devices.
  • Wireless: Integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for fast, cable-free data transfer.
  • USB-C & Memory Key: 4GB internal memory plus a removable 16GB USB-C key for quick access.

Compact, Durable Design

Measuring only 72.3 × 65.3 × 30.3mm, the XLog is compact to fit in even the tightest cockpits. Its rugged, waterproof housing ensures reliable operation in all conditions. With a built-in rechargeable lithium battery (up to 10 hours) and support for an external 8–16V supply, the XLog is built for trackside convenience.

Analyse with Race Studio 3

All data logged by the XLog can be downloaded wirelessly or via USB-C, then reviewed in Aim’s professional Race Studio 3 software.

Analyse lap times, sector times, GPS maps, accelerations, engine data, and video (when paired with a SmartyCam 3) to improve your performance and understand your vehicle in detail.

Histograms, XY view, diagrams, maps, and videos recorded with SmartyCam 3 are automatically synchronised for better comparison.

Expand your X Log's capabilities with the ACC Analogue CAN Converter, the LCU-One Lambda Controller, the SmartyCam 3, the Data Hub and more.

Expand Your System

The XLog Data Logger works seamlessly with Aim’s ecosystem of devices thanks to its second CAN connection.

The second CAN option can be used for Aim Expansions or to connect sensors and other devices that communicate via CAN and use existing protocols or create a dedicated protocol for the second CAN.

  • ACC3 Analogue to CAN Converter: Add up to four analogue channels for pressure, temperature, suspension, and other sensors.
  • LCU-One Lambda Controller: Capture air/fuel ratios and exhaust data for tuning and performance optimisation.
  • SmartyCam: Overlay logged data directly onto video for detailed driver analysis.
  • Data Hub: Split EXP ports to connect multiple expansions such as GS-Dash displays, Lambda controllers, or additional converters.

What are motorsport data loggers?

Motorsport data loggers are specialised devices used in the motorsport industry to record and analyse data from a vehicle. This data can help identify areas of improvement for both the driver and the vehicle, and can include metrics like speed, RPM, lap times, temperatures, Lambda value (air/fuel ratio), and so much more.

Data loggers come as small loggers that can be integrated into existing motorsport setups or as display loggers that have already been integrated into easy-to-read displays.

Why is it important to log ECU data?

Logging ECU data is essential for diagnosing engine issues, optimising performance tuning, and ensuring reliability by recording real time metrics like air-fuel ratios, boost pressures, and sensor data. It allows for precise adjustments without engine damage, aids in predictive maintenance, and helps analyse vehicle behaviour during racing or everyday driving.

What are the key features of the Aim XLog Data Logger?

The Aim XLog Data Logger is a high-performance piece of motorsport equipment that offers an advanced and upgraded data logging experience, whilst having a range of additional standout features.

It's compact and waterproof, making it ideal for a variety of motorsport setups. Despite its compact size, it has a 10-hour battery and supports USB-C, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for reliable data transfer and configuration.

Recording data from its 25Hz GPS, ECU and 6-axis IMU, the XLog can analyse lap times, sector times, GPS maps, accelerations, engine data, and video (when paired with a SmartyCam 3) to improve your performance and understand your vehicle in detail. Ultimately, data collection is upgraded massively with the XLog Data Logger, with multiple vehicle parameters being monitored and recorded for performance analysis.

Which products are compatible with the Aim XLog Data Logger?

The Aim XLog Data Logger can be used with other Aim products to enhance performance monitoring. It supports the integration of many Aim expansions via CAN bus, allowing it to pair with the SmartyCam range, GS-Dash, Data Hubs, ACC3 and more.
