What is a Line Graph Widget?
A line graph Console Widget displays instantaneous data for a Parameter in real time (live) and for the previous 5 seconds. By default, a line graph for Velocity or Acceleration can be selected from the OpenField Console but any parameter can be selected for a Line Graph. Selecting the box beside the athletes name in the line graph widget displays the banded zones for the selected parameter behind the line displaying the instantaneous data. See the Options tab for more information.
