Getting the Race Results into your meet management software:
Hy-Tek’s Meet Manager
1. While on the Run screen in MEET MANAGER, click on Get Times (a button on the
bar two-thirds of the way down the screen).
2. A list of Dolphin result files for the current Data Set (see page 11 for information
about data sets) will be displayed with the most recent file at the top.
3. Select the result file and click OK. MM will read the data into the proper lanes,
putting the times into the backup columns for the heat. If the backup columns are not
showing in the Run menu, press
Ctrl-B
.
o If there is one watch per lane , that time will also be placed in the result column.
o If there are 3 watch times for a given lane , the middle time will be placed in the
result column.
o If there are two watches for a given lane , the average will be computed and
placed in the result column. The average is computed based on the rule choice
selected in Run / Preferences / Backup Times . Please note that if there is .3 or
more seconds difference between the two watch times, the average result time
will NOT be computed and a yellow line will show for this lane. Decide whether
to throw out one of the watch times if you determine one of them is way off. If
you are OK with the two times, then click
Ctrl-K
to display the watch averaging
menu and it will compute the average for you and place it in the result column. If
one of the times is no good, delete it and use Ctrl-K , or simply type in the time of
the one good watch.
If you are keeping track of races by Race Number (see discussion below), you can use
the Race # button instead of the Get Times button. This button increments itself by 1
automatically and searches the data set of results for a matching race number. This is the
quickest way to get results if you are keeping up with the race numbers. However, if you
get erroneous times, you will have to use Get Times to find your race.
Splash and other meet management software:
Follow the instructions in your specific meet management software.
Dolphin as Backup;
Sports Timer as Primary Timing System (System 6 or 5)
If you are using a sports timer (CTS System 6 or System 5, for example) in addition to
Dolphin, you need to be using a backup mode in your meet management software. Contact
your software provider for details and compatibility.
In this mode, the Dolphin wireless watches are the backup watches, while the touchpads and
buttons are the primary timing system.
Make sure your lane timers and starting official are trained
When using Dolphin for backup times, the result file is written after ALL lane timers press
Start/Stop and then Reset. Extra Reset presses could result in extra files; if a lane timer fails
to press Reset, the result file won’t be written unless you intervene with the Forced Reset
button (see Forced Reset, page 7, above).
