2 RACEMAP Forwarder - NEW

The forwarder is a program that runs locally to send reads from MyLaps and ChronoTrack timing systems to RACEMAP.

PreviousOther timing systemNextChronoTrack forwarder (deprecated)

Last updated 11 days ago

The Forwarder: Simple Now, Powerful Tomorrow The Forwarder features an intuitive, easy-to-use interface designed for seamless operation. And we’re just getting started — future updates will bring expanded functionality and support. RACEMAP is actively working to integrate more systems to ensure full compatibility with all major local timing solutions.

Want to see your system included in the Forwarder? We’d love to hear from you — reach out and let’s connect!

How does the forwarder work?

  • Opens a port, on your local machine: 3000 for ChronoTrack

  • Opens a second port, on your local machine: 3097 for MyLaps

  • Listens on localhost IP: 127.0.0.1

  • Waits for TCP/IP connections from ChronoTrack Simple Client software

  • Processes passings/reads send by the ChronoTrack Simple Client software

  • Waits for TCP/IP connections from MyLaps Timing software

  • Processes passings/reads send by the MyLaps Timing software

  • Uses RACEMAPs API token to forward data to RACEMAP

How to get a token?

How to use the forwarder?

  1. Download the forwarder to the computer on which the ChronoTrack timing software is running.

  2. Run the forwarder with the RACEMAP_API_TOKEN token as an environment variable.

  3. Configure your ChronoTrack timing software to send data to the forwarder.

  4. The forwarder will send your data to RACEMAP.

set RACEMAP_API_TOKEN=[APItoken]
.\chronotrack-to-racemap-forwarder.exe

How to operate the forwarder?

Basic

Download the latest binary for windows or for linux and run it with below commands.

  • Place it in a writable folder (your home folder)

  • Start by double click

  • Paste your API token into the corresponding input

set RACEMAP_API_TOKEN=[APItoken]
.\2-racemap-forwarder.exe
  • Start your MyLaps Timing or ChronoTrack Simple Client and configure a connection

  • For MyLaps Timing use Port 3097 as destination

  • For ChronoTrack SimpleClient use Port 3000 as destination.

In a shell use the following commands to configure and start the forwarder.

export RACEMAP_API_TOKEN=[APItoken]
./2-racemap-forwarder 

Replace [APItoken] with the unique API token of your RACEMAP account.

API token The API token serves as a secure key that authenticates and directs your data to RACEMAP. Without a valid token, your submitted data will be rejected. Generate your API token in the settings of your RACEMAP account .
