Import Competitors from TT*Ware File Format

Competitors from TT*Ware can be imported in StageRace so they can be used as a time trial arrival.

In contrary to the other supported import/export formats, TT*Ware is specifically applicable to time trials.

Note that you can also export files for TT*Ware.

Introduction

Broder's Skunkware (U.S.A.) develops custom IP-enabled, client-server scoring and timing systems and broadcast graphics solutions for live and live-to-tape sporting events.

Their TT*Ware software allows for real-time support during time trials.

In cooperation with Phoenix Sports Technology from Pennsylvania, U.S.A., the StageRace program has been made capable to import files from TT*Ware.

Importing

Classifications from TT*Ware can be made available in comma separated text format.

This data can be found in the ttcomma2.txt file. This is an intermediate file from TT*Ware. In the future Skunkware is going to enable explicit text file export to which StageRace will be adjusted at the time. This all only influences the Skunkware TT*Ware presets; thus if the file type might change over time, you will still be able to import files from TT*Ware through generic text file import (Text files in the Import classification file dialog).

Within StageRace, the Arrival tab or Time trial Arrival tab provides file import. In the Import classification file dialog the text file that contains the classification data can be picked. Additionally, the file type in this dialog should be set to Skunkware TT*Ware Results so that StageRace bypasses the advanced Control import classification dialog and directly imports the TT*Ware data.

For TT*Ware operation, please refer to the appropriate documentation.
