Default Help with calibrating OT2

I'm having trouble trying calibrating OT2 to the speeds I get from the chrono. I enter the speed in manually, but when I go to the spine screen it always shows the default (calculated) speed, which is about 40fps under[&:] Help.

Did you buy it or download the trial version? I know the trial version, will not work correctly.

I never put it in manually. I adjust IBO speed to get it to true speed.

I just tried it too, and also see what your seeing.

I also noticed it and mine was a download.Archers Advantage would let me calibrate but OT2 doesn't seem to work for some reason,looks like I will have to get my AA working again.

OK,I figured it out.

Go to the calibration tab at the top,then you will notice in the second box down it will ask for your chrony number and then make sure you click the box at the bottom where it ask to adjust your program to your chrony.

AA,is much more user friendly than this and I am starting to think more accurate.

OK,that didn't work when I went to the spine chart.

What is up with this program,too many functions that don't seem to work together.

I sent an e-mail to Pinwheel Software explaining my predicament with their program. I'll post their response when I get it. Until then, I do have TAP which seems to be fairly accurate.

Looks like you can just change the ibo setting in the equipment setup stage to get the program calibrated. BUT,that doesn't actually change what the correct sppine would be because it doesn't change,even though the speed does.


They have a bunch of bugs in this program that need to be fixed.


I have also sent them an email.

I received a response today from the owner. He said to simply adjust the IBO speed for 30". The IBO for the Equalizer is actually determined at 27.5". Apparently, the program has hard time dealing with that new wrinkle.
