Användarmanual för Tillägg

VR Dashboard allows automated transfer of your boat position(s) from a third-party online regatta game to the zezo.org virtual sailor weather router.

In addition, it
- logs your boat position and other boat and race parameters
- displays infos about your friends and opponent's boats
- outputs NMEA messages containing boat position, speed and heading, as well as wind speed and direction
- logs raw messages

USAGE
1) Install the extension
2) Go to the game home page
3) Click the Z extension icon in the toolbar
4) DO NOT close the debugger warning banner
5) Log in to VR Offshore and select a race.
If 'Auto router window' is enabled, the router will be called automatically.
6) Click the VR update button (Logbook) to update your boat position.
If you require a new routing, click 'Go' on the Dashboard tab.

ISSUES with Chrome
On recent Chrome versions, VR Dashboard will not start from the VR home page. You have the following options:
- Use Chromium or Edge.
- Go to VR Offshore, and start VR Dashboard immediately (while the game is still loading).
Check that VR Dashboard picked up your boat name after a few seconds.
Press F5 on the VR Offshore tab in case your boat name is not displayed in VR Dashboard.

No Z icon after installation
Click the 'plugin' icon in the top right corner. This opens a drop-down menu. Locate the VRDashboard entry and click the pin symbol next to it to pin the extension to the task bar.

The debugging banner
To disable the warning go to chrome://flags/#silent-debugger-extension-api
Disabling it may not be good idea from privacy/security standpoint. Not because we'll steal your data, but because some other extension you install could do it!
Ideally you should be running second Chrome instance (or Opera with "Download Chrome Extension" installed) and only disable the warning there.
