News:| 12/3/2018 | Digital Posting Board | |  | | The latest revision of the Nat/FIS software (6.82 rev 4) includes a new "Digital Scoreboard" option - the Digital Posting Board.
This shows 50 competitors at a time, always sorted by Bib, with all the information you would typically see on a posting board in the finish area of a race.
Recent results are hilighted in yellow. If more than 50 racers it will go through multiple pages every 30 seconds.
Note1: Currently the Digital Scoreboard options are only in the Nat/FIS software, but will be added to Club and NASTAR ASAP.
| | Note2: These options do not scale, they are designed for 1080P resolution only (1080x1920 pixels).
Special thanks to Fred at Phoenix Sports Technology for the idea and design for this screen. |
| 9/18/2018 | The Future of Scoreboards is Here! This season all software (Nat/FIS, Club, and NASTAR) will have the ability to output a Scoreboard image via TV output (HDMI). | | This means you can take advantage of off-the-shelf, low priced, readily available TV products in any way you see fit:- For temporary display around the finish area.
- For permanent mounting on your timing building.
- Any size TV you choose to purchase.
- Weather proof TVs are available (partial shade, or full sun).
- Off-the-shelf Video Wall technology to create a HUGE "scoreboard".
- Feed into the resort TV Network
- Wired or wireless.

| |  | Timing Display:- Directly controlled by the timing computer, so no delay.

The plan is to have multiple formats for you to use:- The display to the right could be used when not running a race. It displays the time-of-day and optional messages.
- Another similar screen is planned that will scroll through user provided graphics. To promote sponsors, upcoming events etc.
- A different layout for the timing screen is planned for use with Intermediates and Speed Trap data.

| |  | Timing Computer. This is the configuration used in these examples: - It's all done via a 2nd monitor attached to the Timing Computer.
- All layouts are based on the 1080p format (1080x1920 pixels). The computer and all displays must be capable of this resolution (most PCs, and virtually all displays will).
- From the computer a cable goes to an HDMI splitter.
- One output of the splitter goes to the monitor next to the computer. This is so you can see what's being displayed.
- In this example the other output from the splitter goes to an HDMI wireless transmitter.
- Behind the TV that's outside is an HDMI wireless receiver.

Outdoor TV
TV Tripod (seems really good but would need level ground)
Wireless HDMI Extender
HDMI splitter |
