The Z1 Dashboard software can be run multiple times simultaneously. When you run the software you create what is known as an "instance." If the software is running and you attempt to run it again, you will create another instance of the software, and end up with two windows both running the software. You may create up to 6 separate instances.

The advantage of multiple instances of the software is that you can have different dashboards displayed on each instance and can position each one wherever you need it. For example you could have four instances all running simultaneously. One instance could display the main dashboard for the car; another the Track Map dashboard; another the Timing and Scoring dashboard; and another the Telemetry dashboard.

All settings are specific to each instance. The Settings Dialog will display the settings for its specific instance. And as each instance can have different settings, you will need to open the Settings Dialog for each instance if you wish to customize that instance.

Note that if you have a external USBD480 or Vocore Screen, then instance 1 will be displayed on that screen by default. Multiple USBD480 screens are supported, allowing each instance to display to a different USBD480 if you like.
