Online Coding
Start Coding
Once the session owner has started the session, the Code Mode screen will become clear and
you may begin coding� If the session is in progress when you join, the Code Mode screen will be
clear and immediately available for coding�
Session Timer and Synchronization
Once a session has been started, all the session participants, (including the Session Owner,)
become equal participants as far as the CODA server is concerned� At the bottom right of a
participants coding screen a timer displays the server time elapsed since the session was started�
All participants will display the time elapsed since the start of the session irrespective of when
they joined the session� This ensures that the coding from all participants is synchronized with a
common timeline�
Note: It is conceivable that an event could be coded live from devices located in varying time
zones� In such an instance, CODA uses UTC as a reference time� (UTC is Coordinated Universal
Time which replaced Grenwich Mean Time {GMT} as the world standard time� For CODA
purposes, UTC and GMT may be considered as being the same�) For synchronization purposes,
the CODA server is concerned only with time synchronization between itself and all the session
participants� If there is to be any third party application pulling the timeline data from the CODA
server they must ensure that these computers are also synchronized with their network time�
