Understanding the Scoring Screen

 

The score input screen is composed of a number of sections to help ensure the scores being input are for the correct athlete. Each section has a distinct purpose which is explained in the figure below.

 

 

 

This section displays the discipline, grade, round and the start group of the athletes being scored. Each of these values can be altered by selecting a value from the dropdown boxes which appear when clicking on the down arrow.

 

ScoreManager will automatically fill in these fields when this screen is opened from the Competition Dashboard.

 

The start group field will always appear blank if there is only one start group for the grade.

This is a list of entries for the discipline, grade, round and start group specified in . The list of entries is shown in the order in which the athletes will compete and for the Semi-Final and Final rounds it will only show those athletes who have progressed to each of these rounds. Where more than one start group has been created for a grade, the list of athletes can be reduced to show only the athletes in a particular start group by choosing the group in the Select Start Group field.

 

A small caret () next to an athlete's name will show that a score has already been entered for them in this round. The caret is only displayed when an execution score has been entered for the athlete. If no execution score is entered or the athlete's score is cleared then the caret will no longer be shown.

The information in this section gives the detail about the entry so that the recorder can makes sure the scores being entered are for the correct athlete.

These buttons allow the recorder to withdraw an athlete or mark them as DNS whilst the competition is in progress. If an athlete has been withdrawn or marked DNS then the text 'Withdrawn' or 'Did Not Show' will appear in section   and the text on these buttons will change.

 

If an athlete who has previously been withdrawn or marked DNS becomes available for compete again, the recorder can use these buttons to reinstate the athlete to the competition.

The marks for the athlete are entered into the boxes shown in this section. Each box is associated with a particular component of the athlete's score and are colour coded for easy reference
