To connect your CloudBox to RUFUS Race Manager (RRM) locally, you'll need to set up the local network connection between the CloudBox and the RRM software. This allows for direct communication, enabling seamless timing operations and device control during an event.

To understand how to effectively use the CloudBox as a Local Device in RRM, please refer to the following articles from the RRM documentation:

  • : Learn how to access and manage devices connected to your RRM account.

  • : Follow these instructions to connect your CloudBox as a Local Device within RRM.

  • : Understand how to view and manage devices during an event, ensuring they are properly configured and sending accurate timing data.

These articles cover everything from adding your CloudBox in RRM to managing devices during events.

Key Benefits of Using the CloudBox as a Local Device in RRM:

  1. Low Latency: A direct connection ensures minimal data transmission delays.

  2. Offline Operation: Timing can proceed even if there is no internet connection.

  3. Simplified Setup: Local connection reduces dependency on external factors, offering greater control.
