Common Issues and Solutions

  1. Webpage Crashing

Issue: The visualization or dashboard page may crash or freeze after being open for a while. Solution: Refresh the browser page. If problem persist, please contact us indicating URL and how to reproduce the crash.

  1. Boat Unable to Connect

Issue: A boat cannot connect or appear in the tracking session. Solution: Make sure the device has a stable internet connection and that tracking is activated. If the issue persists, please report it including the race name, boat name and time.

  1. Tracking Not Stopping Automatically

Issue: A boat keeps transmitting data after the race ends. Solution: The Termination Area only takes effect once the boat has crossed the start line. Make sure the session has a configured start time to activate this feature.

  1. Missing Data in Replays (Distance or Position)

Issue: Replays don’t show boat positions or distances between boats. Solution: For real-time classification and boat distance to work, the following must be set:

  • A valid course

  • A defined start time

  • At least one wind data entry

  1. Insights Not Working

Issue: The Insights section fails to load or shows incomplete data. Solution: Make sure all location data points are present. Gaps in recorded location or incorrect mark setups can break Insights. Review your course and mark configurations.

  1. SMS Notification Failures

Issue: SMS messages are not delivered. Solution: We might have to allow your country prefix. Contact us with the phone number and message details.

  1. App Compatibility on macOS

Issue: The mobile app doesn’t work on certain macOS versions. Solution: Ensure your system is running macOS 12.0 or later for full compatibility with the latest version of the eStela app.

  1. Transferring an Account to a New Email

Issue: A user wants to move their account to a different email. Solution: Contact support with the current email and the new email. We’ll handle the transfer, and you may be asked to reset your password afterwards.

  1. Problems Importing Boats

Issue: Some boats aren’t imported correctly or receive a new access code. Solution: Only boats that have participated in a tracking session will retain their original access key. Inactive boats may need to be manually imported—contact support for assistance.
