I am confused with the "Set Finish Line" function on the PDR. Carolina Motorsport Park Start/Finish line is right in a heavy braking area and I couldn't be distracted with hitting a button.

My findings:
1. Setting the finish line on the adjacent pit road doesn't work. The lap never ends.
2. Setting the finish line in a place other than the real finish line makes the PDR lap times garbage for comparison to transponder timing systems.
3. Setting a inconsistent finish line makes comparisons difficult as well.
4. Lap 1 gets muddled up with the "out lap".

Am I doing something wrong? My best laps every time were the first lap of the session and it is combined with the pace lap. I was the #1 pole and ran into traffic by lap 2. I'm using a stop watch to compare the data.
