Specify which device is to be used at the start and which at the finish. To do this, please click on "Add device". All the devices you own will be displayed. The CHRONOS devices are identified by the serial number on the back and by their color. If you want to insert an intermediate time, simply add a third device.
Note: To the right of the added devices you can change their positioning (start/intermediate/finish) with the up or down arrows if the CHRONOS devices are not shown in the correct order.
To the left of the serial number of the added devices, you can see which operating state they are currently in by means of the status circles. Thus, the functionality can be checked at any time:
Green: Your device is online and ready for measurements
Blue: Your device is in "Setup" mode.
Gray: Your device is not connected to the app.
Red: Your device has detected a possible error. This can be, for example, a light barrier that has been moved.
Example: If the light barrier at the target loses contact with the reflector, the status symbol will change to red after approx. 15 seconds and your CHRONOS at the target will emit a beeping acoustic signal. When the light barrier is properly adjusted again, the status symbol will show green again and the device will stop beeping.
You can also define if the first run of your training should be a reference run. To use this feature, you need our premium subscription. This offers you many more advantages, such as the labeling of individual runs, the evaluation of your sector times and the Excel export of all results.
Click on the field to the left of "Reference run" to set that the next run should be a reference run - with the slider bar below you can set the deviation. Afterwards, please click on Save.
Example: The reference run lasted 30 seconds, the deviation is set to ±4 seconds - thus any run that lasts between 26 and 34 seconds is evaluated. This function is also possible when split times are in use.
Alternatively, you can also configure a reference time. Click on the plus sign between your CHRONOS devices.
Here you can use the slider to set the start and end of your reference time. Now confirm by clicking on "Set". All releases in the target that are not within the reference time will now be ignored. This is helpful to avoid false releases and thus falsified results (e.g. if someone drives through the light barrier shortly after an athlete has started). If the reference time is exceeded, i.e. the athlete does not finish in time, the time is set to "Did not finish". The reference time thus enables an automated evaluation without the coach having to intervene. The reference time is displayed in the overview of the course configuration between the respective devices. It is also possible to use the reference time in conjunction with split times (reference time for individual sections of the course). Afterwards, please click on "Save".
