Gain/Loss functionality
The gain/loss bar-graph uses the data from the ADL Top Numeric.
The bar-graph has 100 segments with 50 segment to the left of center and 50
segments to the right. Each segment represents one least significant digit of
the value displayed in the ADL top numeric.
For example if the Lap Gain Loss channel is displayed with two decimal places
on the ADL top numeric then each segment will represent 0.01 seconds giving
a maximum range of
±0.50 seconds.
To optimise the display the Lap Gain Loss channel may need to be rescaled.
For example if a range of
± 0.25 seconds is required than the Lap Gain Loss
channel will need to be multiplied by two. This can be done in the ADL by
feeding the Lap Gain Loss channel into Channel Maths which can then
generate a new channel that is multiplied by two.
Note that the ADL Top Numeric itself will not display a negative value, but
negative values will be displayed on the MDD bar graph.
