More About Classes

Updated: 2014-03-10

Section Adding Classes gives an overview of classes in MeOS. More settings are available if you check show advanced settings on the page Classes.

• In the field type, you can define different types of classes, for example elite, youth, open, or any arbitrary tag. You can use the class type to manually assign different fees to competitors in different classes. MeOS statistical report, the competition report, is also based on the type (you can change the interpretation of the type by modifying baseclass.xml in MeOS data folder).
• Start name is a name of the start, for example Start 1 and Start 2, but any name, for example the name of a sponsor, can be used. The name of the start is printed in the start list.
• Start blocks are used to generate minute start lists. If Start 1 has two entrances, the classes that use the first entrance should use start block 1 and the classes that use the second entrance should be assigned start block 2. You get one minute start list for each block.
• Status can be changed if you need to cancel an entire class. Fee refunded or No refund determines if the entry fee is included in the invoices. If you select fee refunded, there will be no fee for the class on the invoice.
• Free start time only means that MeOS will not automatically draw start times for the class. The runner&[Unknown function 039;s]start punch, if present, will be used irregardless of this setting. Only provide start punch units when you want to use start punches.
• Result on finish punch means that no card readout is necessary. MeOS will calculate the final result when the runner punches (the attached) finish control. If there is no coarse, the runner will automatically be given status OK. If there is a course, registeres radio punches will be used as controls. If any punch is missing, the status is MP. If you read out the card, the registered punches will be replaced with actual card data.

Quick Settings

The command quick settings brings you to a table like form where certain settings can be changed for all classes at once. You can change the sort order for classes by chancing the number in the field index; MeOS sorts classes increasingly on this number.

Fee and Late fee refers to the entry fee and the fee for late entries, normal fees for adults. Reduced fee and Late reduced fee or the corresponding fee for young and elderly people running the class (age limits can be changed in Competition Settings on the page Competition). If you don&[Unknown function 039;t]enter anything in the field for reduced fee, no reduction applies. When you save the form, you may be asked if you want to update the fees for existing runners.
