have been using GT-11 for a short period of time
good device for my runs and windsurfing.

i race a little and wish to use GT-11 to improve my sailing (Formula)

if there are 4 races a day, do i have to off/on the GT-11 for each race, so that there will be 4 files in the SD card ?

is there a quick way to start a 'new file' before my next race without off/on the GT-11 which is quite tedious and primitive.

thank you

Depends what software you're using I guess, realspeed and gpsar, will clearly show each race, especially if you set the minimum speed of recording.

As far as I know there's no easier way of creating a new file, plus turning it off between races will conserve the battery.

There is a way to do it, mate and I shared one for most of first season (last year)
Will have a look tonight when I get home. From what I can remember, the GT-11 stays on, and the write to card is stopped and restarted. You then get multi files on down load of card. If nobody has solution by then, I will post it for you.
Turning it off and on generates a problem if you do it then jump on board quickly into next race. GT-11 will record but gets lost trying to lock onto satellites.

hi mineral1, thank you for taking the trouble to check it out.

i'm using a GPSAR pro, still very new on this program, if i were to edit out the segment (racing period only), it will be tedious.

if there's a way to launch new file before each race, my friends and i can save alot of time and effort, we can spend more time studying our racing matters.

is there any other program beside GPSAR that can show various boards on a single screen for analysis ?

Meng, After first race, to get a new file before next race, scroll down until you see "memory card" on front screen/display, depress toggle, and select "Log Switch" turn log "OFF" and before next race go back to same and turn "log switch back to ON-FIX.
This should give you a new file for each race.
Try it walking before you hit the water, just to make sure it actually does what I am saying it will.
Walk around block, do this on/off at each corner and you should have four (4) files at end.
