Improvements of the main applications

01.06.2023

OE12 and OS12 V.12.1 have got some important improvements.
The new Czechian live results service OResults.eu is supported now. This service is similar to the well-known LiveResultat. It has a very easy-to-use web UI and publishing results there is free. All upload functions can be run directly out of OE12 and OS12. Both programs also support the radio punches of the OResults Bluebox which can be downloaded with the speaker client web function. There are some important enhancements implemented with the handling of radio punches and radio controls. The automatic detection of SportIdent and Emit devices has been improved decisively. The speaker client monitor functions can now detect when the speaker server is available again after a communication break. They will resend unsent punches automatically then.
In OE12 the handling of the Chip system options at multidays had been simplified.

OEScore V.12.1 does not have web services and online functions implemented. So the only new feature here is the improved automatic detection of SportIdent and Emit devices.

The Online Punch Recorder has received all the improvements of the Speaker client functions of OE12/OS12. This allows a nearly operator-free operation of this application.

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.

Online Punch Recorder published

15.03.2023

Using the new SportSoftware Online Punch Recorder app for Windows, you can record radio punches from devices connected to a COM port. Actually it is a standalone Speaker Online Client Monitor which works in exactly the same way like the so named functions in OE12/OS12.

For more details, see the description of this free software.
You can download the Online Punch Recorder from the download page and install it.

Updates of OE12, OS12, OEScore, ChipReader and OEHeats

15.03.2023

OE12 V.12.1 has been improved by many new features.
The SportIdent Center result web service is supported now. This is the results web portal of the SportIdent manufacturer. You can upload the results there. This portal offers enhanced features for split times analysis. The map and the courses can be uploaded directly out of OCAD and be displayed there. OE12 also supports the radio punches of the SportIdent LTE modems which can be downloaded into OE12 via the SportIdent Center.
The new option Time taking only, no code checking in the Event settings is designed to improve the support of non-O competitions. It disables the (orienteering) code checking in the Read chips function. There are also new report layouts to support these competitions which have much fewer intermediate times than an orienteering competition. Since at such competitions the chips do not need to be downloaded in the finish, because the intermediate times had already been sent by the radio controls, there is a new result report available which displays these radio times. This report can also be used for orienteering events.
A special improvement for WREs are the new introduced extra fields for the IOF rankings. This allows to presort for the start list draw by IOF and national rankings for different classes in the same event. More, the start list draw offers both sort orders (ascending or descending) for the presorting now.
The uploads to the Eventor web service have been adapted to recent internal changes of this service. Especially the uploads of WRE results to IOF Eventor have been improved.
With the Emit chip system, the new eScan2 device is supported now.
The Http access functions have been re-engineered. These are the functions which communicate directly with web servers out of the application. Examples are the Web functions (Eventor, ORIS, ol-events.ch, SICenter) and the Speaker Client Web (ROC, Emit, SICenter). The reliablilty and the performance have been improved a lot by this re-engineering.

Some minor bug fixes and small but important improvements with the UI have been done also.

OS12 V.12.1, OEScore V.12.1, ChipReader V.12.1 and OEHeats V.12.1 have been updated accordingly.

OE12, OS12, OEScore and OEHeats 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.
