I just purchased the latest version of GPRM and I was playing around with it last night to make sure it worked and all and running a mock race. Do I have to reset the finish line everytime before the race can start or is there a setting that it can just run through the race without having to reset it every time?
Also, does our manuel start gate affect the times at all? it seems if I left the start gate open longer that it seemed to scew the times but that could just be me but im wondering if the start gate silinoid being open is that what starts the times and it has no affect when it closes I guess is the more important question.
Thanks ahead!

You can always set the software to run in Hands-Free Mode. This also requires that you turn on the Auto Heat Advance feature. Both are documented in the software's help file.jf4ever2005 wrote:I just purchased the latest version of GPRM and I was playing around with it last night to make sure it worked and all and running a mock race.

You would need to contact New Directions if you think you are seeing timing issues related to your start gate, manual or solenoid operated. The software just reports what times the timer sends to the computer.jf4ever2005 wrote:Also, does our manuel start gate affect the times at all? it seems if I left the start gate open longer that it seemed to scew the times but that could just be me but im wondering if the start gate silinoid being open is that what starts the times and it has no affect when it closes I guess is the more important question.
