Our Software Utilities are below;

We offer a set of software utilities/applications; Dll for .Net & COM, TCP Port Driver, Back Check, RAS ( Racer Alert System) and TECH CHECK. In addition we can also provide custom solutions. Below is additional information of our suite of products developed using .Net.

TCP Port Driver – The SportTAG TCP utility is an application that can be used to capture tags which are in turn sent to a TCP port with a time stamp for third party software to process within its own application. The utility will allow users to “FindReaders” and to “Start” Polling; “polling” is the reader actively looking for tags that cross the loop. Simply define the IP address of the RFID reader, and the IP and port address of the scoring PC.

 

We can customize the data format which is sent to the scoring port. For example, we can send the transponder (Tag) ID, and time stamp –
0.380.000.047|16:17:27:796

The utility keeps track of how many tags where read and gives a status of the link to the TCP port.

BackCheck Application – This is an application that is used for back checks in remote areas generally used in off road racing. The remote application will allow the promoter to define the IP address of the reader, define the check # and to enable/disable the buzzer for an audible tone once a tags crosses the check. Once this system is set to read, it can be left for the complete race.

When needed, the data file created can be used to run reports on the Reporting tool.

Several reports are available.

Below is a sample of the report “by Rider, Name Sort, Start Time”

RAS ( Racer Alert System) - This is an application that will track by racer how many laps have been completed, and how many laps are required for the riders class. This can be very helpful when multiple classes are on the track at the same time and it is difficult for the flagger to determine if the racer has completed the required laps in order to through the checkered flag or not. The RAS system uses a remote reader system that communicates over a wireless network to an application that notifies the scoring officials the status of the approaching racers. Once a racer is scanned with the remote reader it will dispay a green flag if more laps are needed and a checkered flag if it's the last lap.

Tech Check - This is an application that can be set up at tech to verify the transponder is in working condition.
