Aim PDM32 Data Logging Kit

The Aim PDM32 system combines advanced power management, real time data display, and precision GPS tracking into a single integrated solution. Its 32-channel power distribution module replaces traditional fuse boxes and relays, while the fully configurable TFT display presents critical information through customisable layouts and intuitive race icons. Paired with the onboard GPS Module, the system also delivers accurate lap timing and track-mapping capabilities for a complete, race-ready electronics package.

Why Choose the PDM32 Race Dash Display Kit

The Aim PDM32 is a 32-channel advanced power distribution module designed to power a multitude of vehicle circuits, removing the need for traditional fuse boxes and relays. It allows for a simplified wiring harness with increased reliability and control functions. Paired with a TFT Display with Race Icons, a fully configurable display with a range of layouts to choose from, and a GPS Module that provides easy lap timing and lap position for track mapping, this kit is the ultimate setup for full vehicle control and performance improvement.

PDM32 Power Distribution Module

The PDM32 features 28 high-side outputs and 4 half-bridge outputs: 4x rated up to 20A (high power), 12x rated up to 15A (mid-power), 12x rated up to 10A (low power), and 4x rated up to 35A (half-bridge), with a total continuous max current of 120A. Each output provides feedback to the data logger to provide vital information such as open circuits, short circuits, high/low voltage, and the number of fault retires. The time between the retires is user-definable. All outputs can be configured as PWMs for a soft start/stop. All of the PDM circuits can be set up and monitored via the Race Studio 3 software.

The PDM also features 8 analogue/digital inputs, 4x digital-only inputs and 2x speed inputs, and can receive and record data from the following sources:

  • ECU: Over 1,000 protocols available
  • Digital/analogue inputs
  • Internal nine-axis EMU
  • GPS: For lap time and position

PDM Dash Display with Race Icons

Aim PDM Displays are suitable for use as replacement units for those supplied with the Aim PDM kits, or as an upgrade for PDM kits that do not include a dash display. The dashes range from 5", 6" or 10” (MXS, MXP or MXT) TFT high-contrast colour displays. The visual quality is optimised by the ambient light sensor, which keeps the backlight at the best brightness levels.

All versions have fully user-configurable displays and offer a range of layouts, and are available with "Road" or "Race" icons. Race icons with this particular kit allow you to apply conditions to the LED icons.

GPS Options

The GPS09 Module provides easy lap timing and lap position for track mapping. The PDM has over 4,000 racetracks in the database, so once you arrive at the track, the system already knows the timing points so that you can arrive and drive.

Note: The GPS09 Module is available with cable lengths of 0.5m, 1.3m, 2m or 4m to suit different applications. We also have an option for a roof-mounted version which is available with 2m or 4m length cables. Both versions come with a 5-pin 712 male binder connector.

Optional Wiring Solutions

A pre-assembled harness is available for a more straightforward wiring solution, colour-coded and tagged to provide the easiest installations.
