Relays and Classes with Several Races

Updated: 2012-11-30

MeOS support relays of different kinds as well as other special forms of competitions, such as patrol, individuals forking, an integrated prologue + pursuit. Any class with more than one course or leg are referred to as a multi class. You create a multi class by selecting Several Courses / Relay on the page Classes. This starts the guide Changing Legs, which is used to define a multi class. You can select from a number of predefined forms of competition. For some of the forms, you need to provide data for Start time and/or Number of Legs. The following options exist.

• Only one course removes all legs and courses. The class is no longer a multi class.
• No settings create a multi class with the number of legs you provide, but makes no other settings.
• Course pool, simultaneous start sets up an individual class with a course pool and a simultaneous start. Click Confirm. You should provide a number of courses, but competitors and course are tied at readout. You need not decide in advance who runs which course. If you wish to assign courses in advance, deselect Use Course Pool. Then courses are instead by start number, see Course Assignment.
• Course Pool, drawn start list is as above, but with a drawn start list.
• Prologue + Pursuit. Settings for one competitor, but with two legs. You need to draw start times for the first leg. The start list on the second leg is decided automatically from the result of the first leg.
• Patrol, 2 SI-cards is a patrol class with two competitors in each patrol. Each patrol member is supposed to have a SI-card.
• Patrol, 1 SI-card is a patrol class as above, but with one SI-card for each patrol.
• Pair- or single class allows patrols with one or two competitors, that is, you may run individually or in a pair.
• Relay is a normal relay with number of legs you specify.
• Two Runner Relay is a relay were each team has two runners, taking turns to run. If you specify four legs, team member A will run leg 1 and 3, and member B will run leg 2 and 4.
• Co-runner relay is a type of relay where up to three runners are allowed on the mid leg. The first runner to finish of the three will send out leg 3. For the team to have status OK, the runner sending out must have status OK. The other runners on the mid leg need not take all controls or finish. This is typically used on youth classes, so that beginners can try running a relay without feeling any pressure.

Click Confirm to apply the changed settings. You will now see a table with settings for each leg, preset according to the selected type of class, see Manual Leg Settings for more information.
