ZO - Slalom "Altered"

[AKShortline]

This just showed up on our boat over the weekend? Any help on what it means? See upper left corner of the screen.

It means you need to buy a Mastercraft.

@akshortline did a system reset make it go away ?

[Erik4c]

Looks like it's not in tournament mode? Just switch to tournament mode. I don't know what altered means though.

[AKShortline]

@richarddoane if you mean shutting off the main power switch then yes, didn't change. If there is a "reset" for ZO, then no. @Erik4c it says "tournament" across the screen, and I'm pressing "tournament slalom" so yes it's not in recreational mode. It must have to do with mapping...?

You've changed a user's setting without saving it. Don't remap. There's nothing wrong.

[eleeski]

Actually the boat is too cold. It needs some time in California.

[AKShortline]

@eleeski that's pronounced Arizona, a guys gotta ski! @ShaneH that makes perfect sense thank you.

The “altered” glow is not a “bug” or “problem”. What you see in the upper left corner of the screen is the name of the ‘User” profile you have selected, not what event or mode you are pulling. Each of these User profiles has saved settings. These settings, including the Name, can be changed and saved. The “altered” glow appears when you have manually made a change to the “User” without saving. If this is a setting you would like to save, the system is telling you that you must save the settings for them to be associated with the User. If you open another User or even go to the same User in the User menu, the altered values with default back to the saved values for that user profile. The text you see in the User block in the upper left is purely a name, it has no effect on how the system controls. “Jump Tourn” for example is just a stock name of a User loaded from the factory as an example of how you might set up your jump user profile.

 

Because this is a Tournament/Event driven product, there was one User set up especially for pulling many different people with many different settings. This is called “Event Mode”. We chose not to call the User “Tournament Mode” as to not add confusion to Tournament vs. Recreation Modes. The “Event Mode” user automatically saves the latest changes. Therefore, if you go to another User through the User menu then come back to the Event Mode User, you will come back to the last settings you had used in Event Mode.

 

Basically, if you want to save your setting for a particular set-up, you can save them as a specific User (not unlike, but a bit more convenient than the traditional ZO). If you would like to change settings manually on the fly for each skier, much like you would do at a Tournament, you would be better served to use Event Mode.

Below is an easy way to get out of this mode. In fact, if you want to duplicate this scenario in order to practice getting out of it, here’s how to do it. Select the ‘USER’ hard button (4L) > select a mode other than ‘Event Mode’ (e.g. ‘Jump Tourn’) > select ‘set as current’ > select the ‘3 Event’ hard button (6L). From here, if you change events using the ‘change event’ soft button, the problem should duplicate.
