Data averages
The four averaged variables listed in Show data (AveCse, AveTWD,
AveTWS and AveNav% show the average of the respective data over
the time since you hit the Reset Averages option from the Data icon.
This is likely to be useful in longer races and also for testing purposes.
User variables
You are able to create your own data variables, taking data from your
existing variables and then filter/damp and calibrate them as you wish.
There are a number of different facilities for use here, including the
possibility of variables being calibrated with respect to another variable.
User variables are defined using Deckman's files (see User variables on
page 12.13), but once setup can then be controlled from within Deckman
as described below. The two 'moving average' variables specified at the
bottom of the 'Show Data' list operate in this way, and are included in
Deckman by default, so we will use these as an example.
