Problem using laptimer data on Circuit Tools

Hi, I've exported some laps to VBO format and tried to open them with Circuit Tools. At first I couldn't get anything to display. Then I changed the number of satellites from 000 to 10 and was able to see the lap list, lap times, maximum speeds, g forces and a drawing of the circuit. However, I was unable to get a speed as function of time graph (the main graph in Circuit Tools). It just shows up empty. Does anyone know how to get around this?
Many thanks,
Rui

Hi,
The satellite topic is a known problem with CT. LapTimer v17 will utilize exactly the same workaround you used (adding 10 satellites). Can't comment on the other item.

In the standard screen of CT you should see a box bottom left, there you can choose the available data to be displayed on the graph.

Many thanks bulls23! I had somehow missed that screen. Now everything works as it should. I'm very happy with this product, thank you Harry.

Actually playing with it a bit more, data recorded in 2012, with an older version of Harry's LapTimer, shows up with roughly double the supposed time (e.g. a 1:30 laptime shows up as a 3:00 lap). Is there a way to fix this? Thanks again!

CT makes its own judgement on the data. As the time doubles, it sounds like it considers two laps as one? What is the (approximately) correct time? Is 1:30 or 3:00 realistic?
