Features
Geco currently supports the SPORTident timing system.
The four following formats are currently available:
- Classic (inline course): controls must be taken in order
- Free Order: runner chooses in which order to take the controls
- Orient’Show: time penalties and MP limit, knockout qualifications,…
- Multi Sections: mixing inline and free order sections, time penalties, section neutralization…
Free Order and Orient’Show support the following options when checking e-cards:
- time penalties on missing punches
- MP limit, from 0 MP allowed to any number of MP
Geco also supports Mass Start events and One Man Relay with an easy setup.
Geco offers powerful capabilities for ecard reading:
- three reading modes: racing, training, registration
- an automatic handler which provides:
- automatically insert new entries when reading ecards
- detect the course from the punch trace in ecard
- look up ecard number in archive to retrieve name, club, category…
