Are there any rules that prohibit your counter in the 500/1000/1650 from doing board movements to let you know where you are in your pace strategy?
No rule exists about moving the lap counting cards.
That said, I believe that using the lap counter for displaying splits is a clear violation of both the spirit and letter of the rules regarding use of a pacing device. The swimmer should be disqualified.
