4) Saving files: 

When saving files to computer, default file name format will be suggested by the 
Lane timer, e.g. file name TRACK-0001, will be suggested for track race and 0001 
is the number of the record. The user can change the file name if needed. 

 

 

5) Deleting records: 

To delete records, first select an unwanted race record by clicking the down arrow 
button next to it in ‘ Record Cell ’. Click ‘ DELETE RECORD ’ then click ‘ OK ’ to 
accept the delete record dialog. 

 

               

 

 

6) Exporting files: 

The Multilane program allows the user to export files in the text format. Select 
‘ EXPORT ’ then click ‘ TEXT ’ from the ‘ FILE ’ pull down menu. ‘ SAVE AS 
WINDOWS ’ will be displayed; user can save the file to another file name and path 
in your computer. Because the exported file is in text format, it can be opened by 
Windows note pad, Microsoft WORD or EXCEL programs for further processing.
