Continue Another Day

Measuring a rally usually takes several days. This is how you save your work at the end of the day and carry on from the same point the next day.

At the end of the day

  1. Tap the Save RBD file button (9 on the navigation screen).
  2. Choose a name (without accents or spaces) and confirm.

Every time you save, the Designer also keeps a backup. The last 5 are kept.

The next day

  1. Tap the Open RBD file button (10).
  2. Choose Open External RBD to open the file you saved, or Open one of last 5 backups to open a backup.
  3. Hold the Go to tulip button (14) for 1 second to go to the last reference.
  4. Stop the car at the exact point of that reference.
  5. Tap the arrow (⬅) of the reference and confirm. The odometer is set to the distance of that reference.
  6. Carry on adding references as usual.

IMPORTANT! Opening an RBD file deletes the roadbook you had open in the Designer. If it has changes you want to keep, save it first.

Opening an RBD received by email

If you receive an RBD file by email, WhatsApp or Drive, just tap it on the phone and choose to open it with the Roadbook Designer. The file opens straight on the navigation screen.

Importing references from Excel

With Open External RBD you can also open an Excel file (.xlsx) with one reference per row. The first row is the header and the columns are:

  1. Distance (km)
  2. Latitude
  3. Longitude
  4. CP type (optional): 0 = Regularity CP, 1 = Pass CP, 7 = CH, 99 = Radar Point. If left empty, the row is a normal reference.

To join one roadbook to another instead of opening it, see Merge Roadbooks.
