No live timing (Contributor Jeanette Smith, 26Jun20 J)
Issue: No live timing: checked the distribution tab in Orbits – all the lights that should have been green were – so we were transmitting. No, it's not the stratosphere
Cause: Mylaps Europe have changed ‘something’ – without testing the ramifications & this glitch hasn’t affected everyone – some of you may be OK.
Fix:
- Because the country field in race portal.speedhive is not set so the live timing is in ‘world’ not the country
- Here is the link to set your country -https://raceportal.speedhive.com/Account/Login
- For those of you with events this weekend, like me please give it a whirl. and let me know the outcomes. If you’re not racing this weekend maybe sit tight until this weekends crash test dummies do their bit – I will keep you all posted
Random Race Control:
Issue: Race started and wrong class set Next Race is out the gate & you’ve set the purple/warm-up flag. As the karts cross the loop all you’re getting is transponder numbers Whoops!
Cause: You’ve started the wrong class
Fix:
- Hit the stop flag.
- Find & start the correct race – you’ve got time before they rock around again.
- Get that race started – the system will take care of it while you take a breath
- Now, go back to the one you started by mistake & ‘clear’ it.
