Prior to start time, the app will countdown to start
time.
When Start time arrives, Mileage and Speed are displayed.
Mileage
At all times, the
current mileage is displayed.
Speed
At all times, the
current required speed is displayed.

key time is displayed.
The displayed value is identical to adjusting rider's
wrist watch backward based on rider row number.

on row 10, Key Time will display 8:50.
Special
Features
Mileage Adjustment
When using
either GPS or bluetooth input, it may be possible for
mileage to become incorrect.
- in the case of bluetooth, usually due to an off course
excursion
- in the case of GPS , probably due to inaccuracies
introduced by poor GPS coverage.
In either case mileage can be corrected in 0.1 mile
increments with a single swipe of the screen.
Each swipe to the right adds 0.1, each swipe to the left
subtracts 0.1.
Calculations
The app does
NOT make any time keeping calculations.
GPS
Standard
operating mode uses the phone's built-in GPS to track
rider mileage.
To use GPS, set Bluetooth to off on the app Setup page.
Bluetooth
For improved
mileage tracking accuracy Bluetooth is recommended.
Operation with Bluetooth requires the purchase of a
separate bicycle style Bluetooth sensor.
To use Bluetooth, set Bluetooth to ON on the Setup page.
Be sure to purchase a 'speed' type sensor (not cadence
type sensor).
Fun Enduro has been tested - successfully - with the
following sensors:
- wahoo (must be 'speed' model not 'cadence')
- xoss (Developer's favorite - good price, good
quality)
- cycplus (must be 'speed' model not 'cadence') very
inexpensive, but less robust than the other two
