Your first event
A guided tutorial from creating the event to archiving it, step by step.
Work through these ten chapters in order. Together they run one two-day club event from the first click to the archive: the event and its races, the crew, the entries, the draw and bibs, race morning, the Timing Desk, the results and the FIS files, what the phones showed, and the seal at the end.
Each chapter is one step of the rail with the exact buttons to press, a short clip at the top and a screenshot beside the key steps. Read it once from start to finish, then use the reference sections (Set up, Entries, Timing Desk, Results…) when you need one screen in depth.
