GPX Pro Manual9

TRACK 2” and you can then change it to “MYTRACK CCW”. As far as GPX is concerned, these are

two different tracks. Each time you race from now on, it will determine which direction you are

racing, and pick the correct track accordingly.

If you create the start/finish point manually via the menu system before racing for the first time,

it works identically – the first time you race, after the session is over, name the track

appropriately (e.g., “CW” or “CCW”). Then, just like above, when you next race in the opposite

direction, you will be prompted at the end of that session for a new name, and there will be two

track layouts.

1.2.3 Manual Track Selection

For multiple track configurations at the same track, you may need to use manual track selection to

properly select the configuration.

We will use VIR as an example (http://www.virnow.com/). Let's say sometimes you run the

South course, and sometimes the Full course. They share the start/finish line, so the GPX is

unable to detect which one is which.

In this case, select menu item Track options, then Set start/finish line of a new track, go to the

start/finish line, and name it VIR SOUTH. While you are still there, Set start/finish line of a new

track, and name it VIR FULL. The GPX now has two tracks in its memory, both of which have the

same start/finish line.

Now, whenever you race at VIR, go to Track options, Track detection method, Manual selection.

Then select either VIR SOUTH or VIR FULL. Now, when you start racing, when you cross the start/

finish line, the GPX will select the correct track.

As long as you race the same course (for example, that race day), the track you selected will

remain selected -- until you change the track selection either manually or with one of the

automatic detection methods.

1.2.4 Endurance Racing and Pit Stops

For "normal" circuit racing, when you go below the stopping speed, the session in the GPX ends.

That is typically the way a race ends.

However, if you are doing endurance racing, or you are doing testing where you stop for a little

while and then keep right on going, you might not want to have the GPX keep creating new

sessions each time you stop.

In this case, you can set the GPX to allow you to come to a stop and still keep recording as part of

the same session when you resume. To do this, go to Set stopping speed/time, and Choose

stopping method as Stop based on time. Then enter the number of minutes (maximum) that you

would like the GPX to keep active until you restart. Only when you exceed that number of

minutes, or press any button, will the session end. Note that you still need to set the stopping

speed so the GPX knows when to start keeping track of the amount of time you are "stopped".
