PHRF Time on Time

Imported from Yahoo
1

I am new to the users group, this will be a learning experience for
me. I have started using Sailwave as a replacement for an ancient
DOS system which is no longer functional. I am getting in trouble
however. I need the ability to score PHRF with time on time as
opposed to time on distance. I also need the ability to do high
point scoring. Both of these capabilities existed in V1.38b4. I got
into trouble in that I have 3 different computers with differing
versions, so I upgraded all to V1.41. Today I see that I have
neither of the above needed functionalities. I have a national
regatta, (Cosairs Nationals) to score next week. I have sent an
email to Colin asking for help. Any help would be most appreciated,
my wife has just spent the last 1 1/2 hours entering competitors into
the system only to find that we can't do TOT.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Refer to FAQ 31 in the help. I've copied it for you here:

31. How do I set up a series for Time on Time PHRF?
Select the Custom rating system and enter the formula required for corrected
time using the variables e for elapsed time, d for the race distance and r
for the rating. For example a typical PHRF TOT formula might be: e * (650 /
(550 + r)). The rating variable r will be appropriately wind indexed by the
time it gets to the formula if wind indexed ratings are used.

Good luck!
