Test report by CoMod JoergW on the Carrera DIGITAL 124/132 Driver Display
(Art. No. 30353)
First of all, every vehicle should have its own driver display, otherwise
you cannot use the functions sensibly.
Five green double LEDs and two red double LEDs not only add a showy touch, but also allow you to plan your refueling stop well in advance and execute it with precision. If you also keep track early, you might just need a splash-and-go to win. Jump in, briefly press the switch button, 1-2 green segments, and if you make it to the finish line, you've done everything right!
The driver display allows you to display up to 10 pit stops, which could certainly be incorporated into the race regulations. To do this, you need to test how many laps you can complete without refueling, convert that to the race distance, and specify one or two more refueling stops! And then you have to look and think, not just be fast.

Review by CoMod Carrera124 on the Carrera DIGITAL 124/132 Driver Display
(Art. No. 30353)
The Driver Display has the following displays:
the number of refueling stops made (up to 10)
the tank contents (in 7 segments)
the position of the vehicle in the race
Control elements, however, are hardly necessary; only a small push button allows you to set the address of the corresponding vehicle on each driver display. This assignment remains even when the control unit is turned off.
Important: If you don't set the vehicle's fuel level to the maximum via the control unit, all segments on the Driver Display will always light up at the start of the race. However, fuel consumption will be higher! This means the display will approach the "reserve" level correspondingly faster.
If the fuel function is not used, the fuel gauge acts as a kind of "tachometer", i.e. it shows the current position of the hand controller.
However, each vehicle requires its own display. The integration of the display into the verge is visually very successful.
It's also not absolutely necessary to install the driver displays near the control unit. The displays are sufficiently large and bright, so they can also be easily mounted on the back straight.
