A competition at the trackside

The Hollywood Cup: forty transponders (1 foot) on the “Anneau A” board, about twenty races. A volunteer runs MAPPING next to the board; the timekeeper is at the FINISH station.

1. Before the first race

   MAPPING is connected (green banner), write access is accepted. In Distribution, tap Put everything back on the board: the station forgets what it noted during a previous session.

2. Hand out the transponders

   The transponders of the athletes of the first race are already faded (out). For the next races, a transponder that comes back from a race and will be used again shows “Next: Marc R. · P05”: double-tap it when you hand it to that athlete.

3. Take the transponders back

   At the end of a race, the athletes return their transponders: double-tap each ghost that comes back. With automatic return, those that did not come back are circled in orange (“TO RETURN”).

4. An athlete took the wrong transponder

   Races tab, on the athlete's tile: Choose on the board, then tap the hook the athlete really wears. Or tap slot no. 1 and type the usual code (“87”).

   Green message “FINISH applied…”; the timekeeper sees the change in the banner.

5. The race has already started

   MAPPING warns that the timekeeper will have to confirm. FINISH shows the request; until it is applied, the message says “Waiting for the timekeeper”. A finished race can no longer be changed: MAPPING refuses on the spot.
