| 1. | Key in the information about each Athlete including name, gender, birth date, age, registration ID (if any), competitor #, citizen information, status and Class/YR.
|
| 2. | To choose the Athlete's Team, Double Click a Team name from the Team browser on the right side of the screen or type in the team abbreviation. If a team has not been added yet, click the Add Teams button at the bottom of the screen. An Unattached athlete is one that is assigned to an unattached Team. An unattached athlete's points will not be accumulated toward Team Scores. An Unattached Team is any Team that has the first 3 characters of the Team Abbreviation as UNA.
|
| 3. | You may declare an athlete as Exhibition or Foreign by clicking on the Status window on the Add/Edit Athlete screen. The status of an athlete defaults to "Normal".
|
| 4. | Competitor Numbers are optional and you can enter any number you wish from 1 to 99999. If you do not wish to bother adding the competitor number ahead of time, later you can click the Comp # button on the left panel of the Athlete Browser and use several methods to re-number, one of which is to select a starting number and re-assign every athlete alphabetically by team and alphabetically by name within each team. This competitor number can be used to Manually enter an athlete into an empty lane/position while entering results in the Run Menu. The competitor number can also be used to enter athletes into Relays from the Relay Menu or the Run Menu's Relay Names button.
|
| 5. | The eligible events (based on age or division and gender) are listed on the bottom half of the Add/Edit screen. To select an event for an entry, click an event name and the event number will be entered on the left side, or simply type in the event number in the Entries Event # column. Key in the entry time with or without a colon or period - "12345" or "1:23.45". If the event is a field event, you can enter a Metric mark or an English mark, but if the event is set for English, you must add an "m" to the end of the mark to indicate metric (6.72m); if set for Metric, you must include the foot mark (7'3). If you have set up Conversion Formulas, enter the letter of the formula in front of the mark. Note that if you put in some entries and then change the athlete's age or gender, the entries will disappear and they are not retrievable unless the entries had been previously saved.
|
| 6. | Along with the entry mark, you can also enter A) a seed place from a prior meet, B) a declaration status if in Declaration mode, or C) a note. To have any of these columns appear, click Set-up, then Entry / Scoring Preferences, then Entries / Results and refer to the Entry / Scoring Preferences Menu where you can check a box for each of these 3 items as to whether to use them or not. In the example below, the PL column is the seed place from a prior meet and it is blank in this example. One event has been declared a Scratch and one has been declared officially entered with the D. There is a note for each entry and the 60 meter entry used a Conversion Formula (note the B in front of the time) and the B formula added .04 to the time to account for altitude. Also note that to display the conversion formulas for a given event, hold the mouse over the event name and you can see the three formulas set-up for event 17. The converted time is shown in the "Conv" column.
