Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. I prefer routers because some phones limit the number of connections, say to 5 or 10 devices. We do use smartphone hot spots from time to time. The other downside is that if you want to synch to a non-club device, they need your hotspot access password, which isn't secure to do. Routers are cheap, longer range, are faster, and can handle hundreds of devices. My travel kit always has one, plus an inverter, to power it from any 12 volt DC source. Ken N.
  2. The link is the same, private just means it isn't listed in the practiscore match list. So you would have to publish it, either in an email or website of your own. I usually use private just to test, then open it up, because once you share it with somebody, you have to assume everybody has it. Ken N.
  3. We generate activity report and results webfile as well. But Post to PractiScore too (just one button and done!). (-:
  4. I run a very active club and haven't used ezWinScore in over 3 years, including for Area matches, and Nationals. The iOS version generates every report you can supply to the USPSA that ezWinScore does. We are working on having this generated from the PractiScore website too (after posting results). The engineer just started on it today. Both Android and iOS will grab classification updates and update either a match or your database of shooters (or both). I'm thinking of adding that to the website too so that you can have a little more accurate view of categories and classes for trophy buying earlier, as well as notify people their membership has expired before they arrive at a L2/3 match. In terms of using ezWinScore to register. clubs.practiscore.com has online registration, inluding online payments if desired, and online squadding. When I first got that going I found I liked it because I could do it anywhere I could hit a website, not requiring to bring a PC along. Since I only had a PC for ezWinScore (I'm a mac fellow), that was a big plus for me. Regards, Ken N.
  5. Slings not required for shotgun this year. They are optional, for instance, a trooper might find a use for it in a stage plan. But nothing required. We found it didn't help us speed staging and it probably slowed down stage times without good reason (thus impacting match schedule). So with no gain, and it being a hassle for competitors, decision was not require this year. Ken N.
  6. Recommended. It's what we think folks will shoot to get the match accomplished. Some will do more, some less. And the mix of shotgun / pistol will vary with shooter due to option choices.
  7. PractiScore never pushes changes to scoring tablets (for security and also to maximize control), so in the network connection scenario you would have to pull the additions in. At our Tuesday Night Steel match, we register on a master that is always on (and plugged in). If they don't see shooters on the stage device they pull. Usually it's already been done by a squad ahead of them. We are planning, in the near term, a registration push (not scores, but registration) to better support this. In practice, it would be a pull, in that we don't know when the stage devices will be up on the network. So the master will flag that it has new registrations, and the stage devices will check it periodically (and each time on awaking from sleep). For security, this will be a mode you enter, and reg changes will only come from the master at that point. Sound okay?
  8. and in the very near future, the match tablet will have a code (like the registration pin code) that will permit you to delete it yourself. Ken N.
  9. Ty.. I initially had a layout like this but it wasn't well received. Folks wanted to "do the math". What may be needed is a special match with scoring for the classifier, which has a lot more hits per paper than typical. And then a per target thing as you describe. Are you up for creating a Google doc and sharing it with me and then we can spec it out? Basically: - per target scoring, with each required hit accounted for (like USPSA and iCore) - describe hits, not do math. I'm driving today, this will likely be my last contribution til later in the afternoon. Ken N.
  10. The menu on the right hand side: Edit Club settings then same location menu "Access" CLick on "Invite user to Manage", you will need to know the email address associated with their club. Ken N.
  11. Peter, Send the details to support@practiscore.com and attention Russ. He will sort it out for you. Ken N.
  12. We just discovered this. It will be fixed ASAP. Sorry for the trouble! it is related to the web upgrade. Ken N.
  13. Send note to support@practiscore.com, we have a series module we can get you to do this automatically. It's sort of in beta but it did successfully do the Tennesse Multigun Series as our first big test (8 matches a few hundred competitors). Beyond that, you can scrape the results, and the new results going live this Tue (finally!) will have a CSV download per competitor. Ken N.
  14. Eugene is correct, in the forthcoming web 2.0 results there is a button to give you a spreadsheet result for a shooters data. Ken N.
  15. Yes - and sorry for slow response. Glad you sorted it out.
