Live Race Dashboard
The Live tab is a real-time dashboard built for driving, not just glancing at. It updates continuously while your N-Link is streaming, and switches layout automatically between portrait and landscape.
Live data only:
Like the Home dashboard, every reading needs an active
connection to your N-Link with the vehicle running. Fields show -- instead
of a stale or zero value when there's no live data.
Portrait: Command Deck
Turn the phone upright for a scrollable "command deck" layout:
- Main card — boost pressure and drive mode on the left, a large gear readout in the center, RPM and speed on the right.
- Pedals — horizontal throttle (THR) and brake (BRK) bars with live percentages.
- Engine tiles — coolant temp, oil temp, intake temp, and oil pressure in a 2×2 grid.
- Tire pressure — a plain FL / FR / RL / RR grid, in psi.
- Footer — fuel level and 12V battery voltage.
On tablets, the engine tile grid and tire pressure card sit side by side instead of stacking.

Landscape: full-screen dashboard
Rotate to landscape and the Live tab goes full-screen (status bar hidden) for an immersive dashboard:
- Top strip — a segmented shift-light bar that fills up with RPM, a drive-mode badge, and a LIVE/OFFLINE status pill.
- Center — a large gear digit with a left/right steering-angle bar underneath.
- Side columns — swipeable card stacks. The left column has boost/coolant/oil-temp/oil-pressure tiles, a G-force card (lateral, longitudinal, and peak G with a live plot), and a second tile page with fuel, odometer, ambient temperature, and voltage. The right column has a speed/RPM card with throttle and brake bars, and a tire-pressure grid.
- Bottom strip — telltale lamps for turn signals, ABS, ESC, TPMS, oil pressure, coolant/oil temperature, battery, and fuel, each lighting up in its warning color when active.

Some telltales are always dark:
Turn-signal and ABS lamps exist in the layout but have no CAN decode on any supported vehicle yet, so they never light up. This isn't a bug — it's reserved for future vehicle support.
Drive mode
The mode box/badge shows your vehicle's active drive mode: Normal, Eco, Sport, N (shown with the N logo), or Custom.
G-force
The G-force card plots your current lateral and longitudinal acceleration as a dot inside a 2-ring gauge (rings at 1G and 2G), alongside live LAT/LON readings and the peak combined G recorded since you opened the tab.
