Can I put a House League Race on ACALive? Yes you can, you just need to use the MEC Codex. Under Admin, Click Request another race. For codex type “MEC” and fis port put 0. Then fill out all the rest of the information about your race. When you click submit you will be sent a generated codex which will be sent to the email you typed in. That codex then can be used for your house league race.
Note: MEC Timing provides result services as well. If you are looking for a custom results and scoring website please contact us! We would be happy to get started on making sure your inner club races run without a glitch.
I am getting pules on my S4 but they are not being registered on dTris: This can be many things, bad cable, wrong serial port. But if you are running your race and all of a sudden you start to lose pulses and you are running an ALGE S4 Timer you might want to check the memory usage. To validate this, check your S4 printout the first 4 digits on each of the pulses is a memory ID. It can only go up to around 8000 before causing issues.
So make sure that from the ID you have on the last pulse you have enough “budget” to run the rest of your race. If not then you will have to stop, clear the memory (Consult the S4 Manual Section 2.3), re-sync the timers.
We have been talking about questions on most of these but I wanted also to highlight a tip for some who are not having any issues.
Add a racer in race: Something new we have added in dTris 3 is the ability for a user to directly add a racer in while the race is running. Using Ctrl+F1 or the Add Racer Button you can type in the racers bib and name once added the new racer will be added and put in gate.
