SPECIFYING RANGES

Use a comma separated string of values. You can also use "z" followed by a zone number to reference zone values:

  • z3 specifies a low target at the base of zone 3 and a high target at the top of zone 3.
  • z2,z4 sets a low target at the base of zone 2 and a high target at the top of zone 4.

You can also use "p" followed by a proportion to reference a position on your dial.

  • p0 refers to the minimum dial value.
  • p1 refers to the highest dial value.
  • p0.5 refers to the middle of the dial.
  • p0.5,p0.75 refers to the third quarter of the dial.

Step lengths are measured in metres so 1.07,1.15 sets a target zone from 1.07metres to 1.15metres.

DIAL RANGE

The lowest value is used for the dial minimum, the highest value is used for the dial maximum. If you supply only a single value, the dial will range from zero to that value.

GOAL RANGE

The lowest value is used for the goal minimum, the highest value is used for the goal maximum. If you supply only a single value, the dial will range up from that value with no maximum.

SETTING ZONES

Set up to 5 zones as a comma separated list. The list is sorted by size so that the smallest value is the base of the lowest zone and the biggest value is the top of the highest zone. You need 1 + n values to specify n zones.

NB: Please use explicit values for setting zones as using "z[zone]" may give unexpected results.

STATISTICS

Statistics options are specified in settings by choosing a statistic set from the "Zone stats to store" list. You can also entirely disable stats storage for this field by selecting "Stats disabled".

STATISTICS FOR TARGET RANGE

Where a target range has been set, you can track up to two values out of "below target range" (Lo), "inside target range" (Ok) and "above target range" (High). These values are stored on a per lap basis as well as an entire activity basis. In addition, the targets in use will be stored (device memory permitting) for later reference.

STATISTICS FOR ZONES

Zone statistics store %age time in each zone on a per lap basis as well as an entire activity basis.
