3. Working With the Curves
A. Changing Oar Curve Colors
When entering
Display Mode
, the highest assigned Oar is

rowing, you can change the stroke Oar by pressing and holding the button
of the desired new stroke. The new stroke oar is indicated by a pair of
asterisks before the impulse number for that oar.
Users can change the appearance of a displayed curve and/or hide it
by pressing the button associated with that curve. In this way, users can

unique color, off, then black.. For the
