Split Time Rowing

Activation Modes

The split timer can be activated in one of the following ways:

• Automatically - when rowing activity has been detected
• Semi-automatically - the rower needs to press the split-timer screen once before activation
• Manually - the rower needs to press the split-timer screen to immediately start the timer, and again to stop it
• Always on - the timer is always on

The default activation mode is semi-automatic. It is possible to change the activation mode via the application's settings menu.

Resetting values

Split rowing values can be reset by a long press on the split-timer screen. If the Reset on Start preference is selected in the application's settings, values will be automatically reset on each split timer start.

Straight Line Mode

Straight-line mode can be toggled on/off via the Straight Line preference. When doing split-time testing on a straight rowing course, average speed and distance measuring accuracy should improve if using this mode. This is because the distance calculation is done between first, last location only, so it eliminates the GPS inaccuracy of all the points in between. Doubling-back in the middle of a straight line measurement will give negative distance.

Stopping the split timer

When the split timer activation mode is either automatic or semi-automatic, the timer will stop itself after about 5 seconds of rowing inactivity. Once stopped, the elapsed time will be then adjusted to subtract that additional time.

When in manual mode, a press on the split-timer screen will force the timer to stop. When in continuous mode, the timer can not be stopped.

Toggling split-time expanded view

When reducing the number of graph slots to 1, the meters layout will expand to show split-time specific values, such as average speed, stroke rate and stroke count. How to change the graph slot count is described in the previous chapter
