Using Multiple Panels

 

ScoreManager has the power to manage more than one panel running simultaneously. However both panels should not be scoring the same grade and start group at the same time.

 

To use ScoreManager will multiple panels you will need to

install the full ScoreManager programme on one central computer

install the PanelRecorder component on a different computer for each panel

network the computers so the PanelRecorder component can link to ScoreManager on the central computer

 

It is strongly recommended the computers being used are linked together using an ethernet (wired) network and not a wireless network.

 

A wireless network can be subject to interference from other wireless networks nearby, from mobile phone networks and from people in the hall creating a mobile hotspot with their mobile phones. Interference to the wireless network can cause information being transferred between computers to be lost or corrupted. This problem affects all software using a wireless network and is not a weakness of the ScoreManager system.
