Pursuit/interval start with start numbers
Press the 'Jaktstart/intervall m/st.nr på ESD2' (pursuit/interval start with start
numbers) tab at the top of the window.
In most result programs, like the Norwegian software
eTiming,
it is possible to
export a start clock file, with all starts for the event sorted by start time. This file is
a comma-separated text file with three fields/values; start number, start time and
start gate. It is also possible to make such a file manually, using Excel or a
similar program.
Start gate numbers are only used on large events where several start gates are
used. The default value for start gates is 0, which means all starts are shown. If
the start gate is set to 1, only starts with this start gate number are shown on the
display. Set the start gate number by pressing the arrow-buttons and the 'Sett'
(set) button to transfer the setting to ESD2. The 'Nullstill' (reset) button resets the
start gate number.
Press the '...'-button to the right of 'Jaktstart' to open an Explorer window. Locate
the correct file and press 'Open'. Transfer the file to ESD2 by pressing the
'Overfør' (transfer) button. All starts are transferred to ESD2 – one by one – until
all lines are marked with green. It is possible to check that all starts transferred
correctly by pressing the 'Sjekk' (check) button. 'Jaktstartmodus' (pursuit start
mode) på/av (on/off) turns the pursuit start mode on (på) or off (av).
If more than one competitor start at the exact same time, ESD2 will show their
start numbers alternately.
