Preparing an event

The order below matters — each step depends on the one before it.

1. The event itself

• Set the event name, date, town and venue — raceevent → Event configuration

• If you will take online sign-ups, also fill in the Registration tab: the registration window, the payee IBAN and the beneficiary name

2. The structure of the race

• Create the tracks — racetrack → Track list

• Create the checkpoints on each track — racetrack → Checkpoints

  • Code the start start and the finish finish. Everything about elapsed time depends on this.

  • Give each checkpoint a password — it protects the marshal's keypad

• Set the entry fees — racetrack → Price tiers

3. The people

• Create the categories — racers → Categories

• Add the competitors — racers → List, or let them sign up through racereg

• Assign bib numbers. They are strings — leading zeros matter.

4. Check before race day

• Open the start lists and read them — racers → Start lists

• Open one keypad link and confirm it loads: /kontrola/{code}/{password}/

• If you use RFID: run the connection test — racerfid → Test database access

• If you use terminovka.sk: run the configuration test and set each track's external ID — terminovka

5. On the morning

• Send each marshal the keypad link for their own checkpoint — nothing else

• Put the online results page on a screen in the finish area
