Settings in RACE RESULT

Create your event with the required contests in your RACE RESULT account.

Synchronize participants with Racemap:

Tracking channel

Active transponders have to use the same tracking channel as TrackBoxes. Set up with management box, default configuration: channel 1 should be different from channel for timing.

Track Box settings - Forwarding

Set up your Track Boxes for live tracking to directly forward all the Track Pings to RACEMAP: Timing » Systems » Track Box Configuration Rules

• Channel ID: using Track Boxes for live tracking requires a different channel than for timing system

• Tracking Partner: Racemap

Loop box settings

Loop box detections are forwarded with the device ID of the connected decoder. That means, Racemap has no information, if the detection is received from loop box or decoder.

• Repeat mode: Detections are forwarded directly and can be used for live visualization.

• Store mode: Detections are forwarded with delay and can not be used for live visualization, but for the replay of the contest.

Loop box detections are forwarded through the exporters with the coordinates of the

• decoder OR

• specific timing point

  Use the automatic timing point assignment rules for these detections (based on loop ID and channel ID), if loop and channel ID have been manually defined in Main Window » Timing Points

Exporter to forward timing points

The exporter forwards reads that are addressed to timing points. Forwarding through exporters is the only way to consider decoders for predictive live tracking.

Settings in Timing » Exporter + Tracking to send data from systems different from Track Boxes - decoder, loop box, USB timing box. Select all timing points. Set tracking partner "Racemap", enter your RACE RESULT customer ID.

To start forwarding click green play button (Timing » Systems » Exporters + Tracking) and each reader forwards a box ping every 4 min. That way your systems are visualized in Racemap Map » Hardware and Detections.
