I am saying this from recent experience and talking to two ALPA volunteers who look at ACE reports.
The timer is indexed to the DH leg, not the uncovered leg. Obviously if it's in a hub, they are the same time. But if the leg is at an outstation, the timer starts at the show time of a trip they would have to create in order to cover the leg. In other words, you'll never see a trip in OT with just BFE-ATL. It would have to be DH BFE, BFE-ATL. The timer starts at the beginning of that leg.
