Asian le mans series

Live Data Connection​

In Asian Le Mans Series, Alkamel is the timing provider.

V2 Protocol​

Prior to get access to the timing data, make sure that you have purchased the V2 Protocol on the Alkamel store:

  • There is a per event fee or a full season pack fee.
  • Each license includes 4 connections to the V2 Protocol.
  • The license is filtered per championship: Asian Le Mans Series and Asian Le Mans Cup need one license each.
  • Alkamel will provide you with credentials and port by email.

The V2 Protocol is available on cloud or on-site (garage network), for the same price:

  • Cloud - you only need an internet connection. No specific router is needed, you can use your own. You get the same data as on-site.
  • On-site - available since 2026 for teams with the necessary infrastructure, through the garage network. Teams without it will be connected on cloud. You may have to use a router provided by Alkamel, they will inform you on how to proceed.

Asian Le Mans Cup is available on cloud only.

Track Limits Warning​

Track Limits Warning are sent in the feed in Asian Le Mans Series. It will be displayed in the main scoreboard, the car scoreboard, the driver scoreboard and the Track Limit Warning display. You can find specific help file here.

Troubleshooting​

If you can't connect, it may come from a network problem, from wrong credentials or because you reached the maximum number of connections.

Network problem​

To check that your network configuration is correct:

  • Open a command prompt and type "
    • If you get a response like :Reply from 192.168.74.12: bytes=32 time=3ms TTL=64, your network configuration is correct and you should contact Alkamel to see if they activated the feed for your team.
    • Otherwise type "
      • If you get a response like :Reply from 192.168.74.12: bytes=32 time=3ms TTL=64, you have a DNS issue. Please check your setup with your IT department.
      • Otherwise, please check your network setup with your IT department.

Wrong credentials (V2 Protocol)​

Please ask Alkamel to confirm that you are using the right credentials to connect to the feed.

Number of connections​

Alkamel limits the number of connections to their feed to 4 per license.

Additional sectors

On each track, there are more timing loops that you can use to create custom sectors.

For example at Sepang, there are 7 loops, FL, SCL2, IP1, IP2, PL1 and SCL1. You can create a sector from FL to SCL2 for example by adding it to the additional options of the championship configuration before connecting:

You can choose the name you want but the value should always be: Loop1;Loop2

You can only define additional sectors on a computer directly connected to Alkamel V2 Protocol (server). Client computers connected via the server mode will receive automatically the same sectors than the server.

Micro-Sectors​

Micro-Sectors are available in Asian Le Mans Series using Alkamel v2 feed.

Qualifying​

Adding the 2nd Best column during qualifying helps determine the starting grid for the second race. Creating a second scoreboard with this column and activating the 'Show Row Number' option completes the setup.
