Splits

Tools for splits & analysis are found in right side of tracking window.

Analysis is based on split lines and split points. To add split line/point click Add line/point (mouse-r) and either drag a line with mouse's right button on right-click a point with ALT -key down.

Split line

Split is "recorded" when track crosses a line. Laps mean crossing the same line several times, i.e. line 2 lap 3 means when line 2 is crossed third time.

Split point

Split is calculated as a time when track is nearest to the specified point. For each point there is also radius (must be defined before point is clicked), which means that if track is not near enough the split point, split is not "recorded" at all.

Laps are not relevant with split points, i.e. with split point there is always 0 or 1 laps.

Analysis

In Splits and Sectors -tabs it is possible to view times in single split line/point and between two lines/points.

More detailed analysis is available in Analysis -tab. In config-textarea a kind of "course" must be defined meaning which "legs" are taken to analysis.

Categories

It is possible to define categories for legs by adding rows before leg definitions:
CAT 1 uphill
where 1 is category's "id" (number) and uphills category's definition.

Leg is defined to category by adding C1 to leg definition

 

CAT 1 upphill
CAT 2 downhill
CAT 3 road

Notes

Competitors that are checked in competitor list are taken into analysis table.

Total times are calculated as sum of leg times so if someone misses a leg time (hasn't crossed a split line or been near enough of split point) he/she won't get proper total time even if had crossed first and last lines.
However sums are calculated with exact time values so no rounding errors there.
