Replaying Laps
If you have recorded laps loaded into the software you can replay them, by clicking
on the Replay button. By default the cursor will move through the Graph window and
round the path in the Graph:Map window at the same speed at which the file was
recorded. However by clicking on the arrow to the right of the button a faster replay speed can be
chosen.
When the Replay button is pressed the Drift Meter and Sector windows will also appear, but these
can be closed if not required.
Whilst the file is being replayed the cursor in the Graph:Map will move around the path taken. If
more than one lap is currently being viewed there will be a cursor for each run, and these will move
around the circuit in a manner according to how the graph window x axis has been set: if the Graph
window is displaying speed over distance,
the cursors will move around the circuit
together, as the distance covered during
each lap will be virtually identical.
However, if the Graph window is set to
speed over time then the cursors will
travel according to the actual lap times.
Note in this example (left) how the green
triangle is behind the red and blue
triangles – this is a snapshot of three
individual laps being replayed when the
Graph screen has been set to speed over
time. This feature allows for „live‟ analysis
of where a driver is gaining or losing time,
and on which part of the circuit.
Set Position Cursor Type
The cursors themselves are configurable: right click on any of
the main windows (Graph, Data or Map) to bring up the
context menu (or click on the Graph Setup button on the
Toolbar.) Select „Set
Position Cursor Type‟ and
choose the style and
colour required for each
cursor. Each run can now
display a different shape
and colour of position
cursor:
