SETTING THE USER SCALE
The User Scale is the amount of recording time that is displayed across the screen. Generally Racepak will set this to
display from .5 seconds before the start of the run (-0.500), to 1.0 or 2.0 seconds beyond the typical elapsed time recorded by a
car such as your car. Viewing the data that was recorded before or after that portion of the recording requires using the arrow
icons to scroll forward or backward on the run. If you would like your screen to display a larger or smaller portion of the run you
can reset your User Scale to whatever time frame you desire by following the steps below:
Step 1:
From the main menu bar at the top of the screen
click on SETTINGS
and then
PREFERENCES
. This will
bring up the Edit Preferences dialog box.
Step 2:
From the Edit Preferences dialog box locate the User Scale Begin Time[s]: window. You can
change the
starting time of the screen display by highlighting this window and typing in the new start time.
Step 3:
Directly below the User Scale Begin Time is the User Scale End Time[s]: window.
Highlight and type the
new end time
in this window to reset the length of time displayed on the screen.
Step 4: Click the OK button.
ADDING YOUR NAME TO THE SCREEN GRAPH
While you are working in the Edit Preferences dialog box you might want to add your own name to the screen graph if
it hasn’t been done for you already. This is done in the same manner as you used to set the User Scale above.
Step 1:
From the main menu bar at the top of the screen
click on SETTINGS
and then
PREFERENCES
. This will
bring up the Edit Preferences dialog box.
Step 2:
From the Edit Preferences dialog box locate the User Title: window. You can change the name that appears
on the graph screen by
highlighting the window and typing in the name you wish to appear
.
Step 3: Click the OK button.
