4.3.7 – How to set the time slip info 

Once the time slip has been handed to the racer, he/she can manually input 

pieces of information from the time slip into the analysis software. QMAn has 

been designed to allow you to insert useful data (reaction time, 60’ – 330’ – 1/8

th

 – 

1000’ and 1/4

th

 time, 330’ – 660’ and 1320’ speed) inside the test file in order to 

recall them when needed. 

In case you selected a shorter run length in software preferences (already 

described) the higher distances settings such as 1320 time and speed will not be 

shown . 

 

These settings affect the gray scaled backgrounds of the time plot.
