Updates of OE12, OS12 and OEScore

10.06.2024

A number of important improvements have been implemented in OE12.
The highlight is the new function Send online punches to the web result portal OResults.eu. It sends the punches from radio controls online in real time to OResults.eu. This is a great step to reduce the workload both on the local LAN and the OResults.eu server. This function can transfer the radio punches from the Online monitor – Server and the times from the Time taking function. This new feature will be used together with OResults.eu at the nextcoming IOF championships: EYOC in Poland, JWOC in Czechia and EOC in Hungary. They will also profit from the updated Speaker-Prewarning function, which distinguishes between official and inoffiicial times now, like this is the case with the Speaker support window. Also, the editing of additional chips (which must be used at IOF championships) has become safer to avoid unexpected consequences.
The OE12 Standard license allows courses up to 64 controls and chips with up to 64 punches only. Sometimes this lead to problems with SportIdent SIAC chips with low battery, which save multiple copies of each punch. The handling of this phenomen has been improved a lot especially when downloading such a chip. There will be clear hints issued for the competitor and the organiser.

OS12 and OEScore V.12.1 have been updated accordingly.

OE12, OS12 and OEScore will detect this update automatically. You can also use the Check for updates function in all applications to download the new setup. Of course you could also click on the Downloads button to get it.
As usual, the download works as trial version as long as you don’t have a valid V12 license. Updates or new licenses can be ordered through the Online shop or from the author directly.

OE12 and OS12 Updates

28.03.2024

For its IOF championships the IOF prescribes the use of two touchfree chips, this is SIAC with SportIdent and EmiTag with Emit. Every competitor must wear them at the same arm. When downloading in the finish, it is demanded that if the first chip is missing punches, the second chip must be examined. If a missing punch is found on the second chip, this has to be added to the first chip so that the competitor gets a valid result. All of this must happen very quickly in the finish, so that no wrong live results will appear anywhere.
Now OE12 and OS12 provide the perfect and automatic solution for this IOF rule. The additional chip numbers can be edited, imported or downloaded for the entries. Both chips can be included in entries and start list reports, so that every competitor will get the right chips.
When downloading the chip and the code checking finds a missing punch, then the operator is prompted to download the additional chip of this competitor. OE12/OS12 do a possible merging automatically. Both chips will be saved and assigned to the competitor. So this is documented in the event data. For radio punches the additional chips are also supported.
In Evaluate chips the visualization of missing butterfly punches has been improved. There is a new option for results available. Now nced competitors wo should not be ranked officially can be sorted into the list. In the SportIdent settings individual classes can be selected for using the start punch.
Also some bugs have been fixed.

OEScore Update

At a Rogaining competition, normally a team is punished by not earning the points if its members have punched outside the maximum punch time difference. Now you can define an optional additional penalty for this case which will be subtracted from the overall points. This covers a new rule of FEDO (Spanish orienteering federation) for Rogaining competitions.
There is a new report under Competition day: Team punches. This report lists all team punches which exceeded the maximum punch time difference. Also some bugs have been fixed.
OEScore will detect this update automatically. You can also use the Check for updates function in OEScore to download the new setup. Of course you could also click on the Downloads button to get it. As usual, the download works as trial version as long as you don’t have a valid OEScore V12 license. Updates or new licenses can be ordered through the Online shop or from the author directly.
