The Checkpoint-Race View in RUFUS Race Manager (RRM) provides detailed information about the passings for a specific checkpoint and race assignment. This view allows race organizers to closely monitor the timing data collected at each checkpoint during a race. In this article, we will cover the features and functionalities available in the Checkpoint-Race View.
The Checkpoint-Race View displays a grid containing all participant passings associated with a specific checkpoint and race. This is NOT a view where one can see the race classification; there are no rankings in this view. The information here is solely about passings. Only passings that have been assigned are shown here. ORPHAN passings will not appear in this grid because they have no participant assignment, and therefore, no associated race or checkpoint. This grid includes essential details such as BIB number, Chip, Name, Gender, Age Group, Racetime, Timestamp, Lap, Status, Type, and Device. This information helps race organizers monitor checkpoint activity and analyze participant progress during the event.
The Checkpoint-Race Grid has the same functionality as other grids in RRM, such as the Participants Grid. Users can filter, search, sort, and group the data within the grid, providing flexibility in managing checkpoint passings.
In the Checkpoint-Race View, users can add manual passings by typing the BIB number of the participant. This feature is useful in situations where a passing was missed or incorrectly recorded by the system. The timestamp for the added passing will be the precise time of the manual entry, making it useful for adding passings at the exact moment participants are seen crossing the checkpoint. Once a manual passing is added, it will be analyzed by the system and assigned the appropriate passing status automatically.
The Checkpoint-Race View also displays the Current Race Time for the specific race. This allows race organizers to keep track of the ongoing race time while reviewing the passings at a particular checkpoint. The Current Race Time is shown prominently at the top of the view, providing an easy reference for the overall race progress.
The Checkpoint-Race View in RUFUS Race Manager is an essential tool for monitoring participant passings at a specific checkpoint during a race. With features like manual passing addition, detailed passing information, and a real-time race clock, this view helps race organizers maintain accurate and comprehensive timing data throughout the event. By leveraging the features available in the Checkpoint-Race View, users can ensure the reliability and efficiency of their race timing.
