Settings in RACE|RESULT
- Create your event with required contests in your RACE|RESULT account.
- Set simple API to synchronize participants with Racemap.
Tracking channel
Active transponders have to use the same tracking channel as track boxes. Set up with management box, default configuration: channel 1 should be different from channel for timing.
Track box settings
Set up your track boxes for live tracking in Racemap:
Timing » Systems » TrackBox Configuration Rules
New rule:
- 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.
- Store mode: Detections are forwarded with delay and can not be used for live visualization, but for the replay of the contest.
- Repeat mode: Detections are forwarded directly and can be used for live visualization.
Loop box detections are forwarded through the exporters with the coordinates of the
- decoder OR
- specific timing pointUse 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
Set coordinates for loop boxes, independent from location of connected decoder
Forward data
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 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.
Your readers are shown in Racemap.
