Description - Version 5.6

Monitor and record your referee activity

* Now support for Sin Bins and Sanctions recording
* Now supports Custom Period Duration
* Match Final Score saved to Garmin Connect

The Application is designed to monitor and record your activity during a refereeing session. The activity can be based on a discipline with a number of periods and breaks. For example Soccer (2 Halves) or American Football (4 Quarters).

The App records your activity during the period and allows you to the move into a rest break (e.g. Soccer Half-Time) then return for the remaining periods. At the end of the activity you are given a full summary of the entire session, including any personal metrics such as heart rate. If the activity is indoors, the App records Steps rather than Distance without GPS.

The App also allows the recording of a activity Score. During the session, you can press the Menu Key to view the current Score page. Tapping on the Team (left or right), or pressing Up or Down, can increase the Score. Pressing Back Twice on the Score page will undo the last Score. The Score is recorded against the time for later review. To assist, the team colours can also be modified before the session starts by pressing in the same manner.

Move Up and Down during the Activity to display the Time Elapsed or Remaining.

The App can be customised from the Menu Key on the Start Screen. The options are:
- Duration: The duration of a period in minutes, for example 45 minutes for soccer. If the Pause Mode (see below) is enabled, breaks (e.g. injury time) can be recorded; otherwise the period can be ended using the Enter Key. A custom duration can be defined using the Garmin Connect App.
- Periods: The number of periods in your activity, for example 2 for soccer.
- Extra-Time: If the activity requires extra-time. At the end of normal time (after the chosen periods), then an option is displayed to include more periods; otherwise the session ends.
- Pause: Allow the period to be paused (not available within breaks) to capture the time. This time is then counted down after the normal period time completes, so you know when to stop. Note the Enter Key will record pause time when enabled, and you cannot move to the next period until the chosen time has elapsed. The 'On Plus' option allows you to record additional injury time after normal time has elapsed. Note to exit the period, you will need to double-press the Enter key. Once paused, Sin Bins (Up Press) and Sanctions (Down Press) can be recorded.
- GPS: Determine if you would like to enable GPS to record movement during the session. This uses more battery, and is not recommended for indoor activities.
- Distance: Display distances in Metric (Kilometres) or Statute (Miles)
- Background: Background Colour of Black or White.

The Start the App, press the Enter key. This key also moves to the next break or period. The indicator at the bottom of the display represents which period or break you are currently on. At the end of the session, you can either Save or Discard the recording within Garmin Connect. You can review all the periods, breaks and summary by moving Left or Right. If you which to cancel the session (to avoid by accident) press Back three times to abort. You can force exit from a period (which may be required if Pause is enabled) by double-pressing the Enter key.

To start a Sin Bin timer, first pause the session and press the Up Button. This will start a countdown on the number of minutes set. This time will also pause, when the timer is paused. You can also record a Sanction (Yellow or Red Card) at the same time, by Pressing Down.

The Score is recorded into the Garmin Connect Activity File for Reference.
