Detailed Description

The program was developed for the sports clubs and all those who want even with simple sensors to measure the exact time down to 1/100 seconds.
Start single, round trip or route, gate and pylon errors as penalty seconds, point’s calculation formulas, automatic placement and total time for different age groups.
Participants enter data manually or load starter list (Notepad / Excel) from the
registered office. Sensors are connected to the serial COM port or the Universal Serial Bus (USB) via an adapter cable.
Also additional monitor, LCD TV or big Display for viewers can connect to the PC program.
The results can be seen, print and save for homepage.
Standard way to take on ADAC contest 5 age classes, which are stored in a single Excel file on different pages or in a text file. Load start list in the program or enter a participant manual (confirm with ENTER key). After loading the start-up protocol the participant can be select in the drop-down menu, or just start automatically in succession. Some columns can hide it when the competitions are conducted in a club.

But even in the same club, you should enter car registration number and driver’s name. Normally for START a visual (light / lamp) or auditory signal (starting pistol, starting flaps or "Start.wav" audio file) will be available, but you can also just run through the light barrier.
Connecting for electronic timing must take a ground contact or the infra-ray sensors.
Fault seconds (StS) for pylons and gate type before the "Enter in the protocol”. All cell contents in the log can be manually changed, except time, points and places which are automatically calculated.

You can load only one starter list. The new participants have to be added manually through the text area. A selected driver can be removed or disqualifies from the record with the right mouse button.

To select the athlete repeatedly, you should double-click in the record or find the number above or write.
The program requires little space on hard disc and requires no installation, so you can test it without administrator rights.

The starter list of participants and results

We recommend for all clubs to create an equal standard protocol for notification (number of columns) must be denied.
For example (5): start number, driver's name, sports club, city and license.
The program looks at each page, the word "StNr" - this is the beginning of the program protocol.
An example in Excel (Class title below on the sheet):

A B C
1 StNr driver Leader Club
2 777 name, first name MSC pipe Bach eV im ADAC
934: \ Class 1 /

If MS Excel is not installed on your computer, you can use Notepad, where the column data should be separated by tabs.

Because the boys and the girls race together, there is no separate breakdown. The name of the column names are taken from the start list.

Everyone can make several practice runs (pink columns), but it is saved only the last time. Time will always be overwritten until the option "1st scoring run” selects. There are only 2 runs and the race all the time now penalty seconds will be charged only for these races: time1 + Sts + time2 + Sts = total time.

To the times do not override the program checks whether the time courses for competition already exists.

Training times and errors in results are not required.

Championship Points

"Points calculated” under settings are calculated using the formula:
(Number of participants - place) / number of participants * 10 + 1 = X,xx (rounded to the second decimal place) or
(Number of drivers + 0.5 - Position) / driver’s number * 1000

For example, 22 participants and 5th Position:
(22-5) / 22 * 10 +1 = 8.73.

After hand correction StS in the log, you should click the button "trophy" for the new points and squares calculations.
