Analysis mode
We suggest using this feature in the case of a competition/interval where you need immediate
feedback about your overall performance in the time domain.
The instrument saves the average stroke rate and the number of strokes every 10 seconds to a
temporary memory, until the last 128th interval. This means 1280 seconds or 20 minutes. The
instrument always saves the last 128 interval. When the interval is longer than 20 minutes, the
last 20 minutes will be saved.
The analysis can be accessed from the „Mode" menu item. There are two types of analyis:
Normal mode
In normal mode, the Just row screen shows the stroke rate and stroke number according to the
given interval. The interval can be selected by the up and down button.

Graph mode
The stroke rate versus time is shown on a graph. Each column represents an interval, and the
height of the column is proportional to the stroke rate. With this mode, a quick stroke-rate
analysis of the training or competition can be carried out.

Coach mode
The coach mode is useful for coaches to measure the stroke rate, and split times by using
Waterstars Basic. The timer starts by touching the down button.
To measure the actual stroke rate, the down bottom must be touched at the beginning (or any
other certain part) of each stroke. The instrument calculates the stroke rate from the elapsed
time between two touches.
The up button pauses the time, the second touch resets the timer. The split times can be
measured by touching the enter button.

Back button: Back to menu

Enter button: Split time

Up Button: Pause/Reset Timer

Down button: Start time/Measure Stroke Rate
