Defining Courses
Register courses on the page Courses. A course is defined by a name and a comma separated list of controls (control numbers). Normally, the control number is the same as the punching code, however, it is possible to change to punching code of a control later (for example in case of erroneous control programming), see Controls.You can provide the course Length, Climb and the Number of maps. The latter information is used in the quick entry form to show how many maps are available. But all these fields are optional.
Use first control as start means that the first control punch on the course defines the start time. This makes it possible to use an ordinary control as a start unit.
Use last control as finish means that the last control punch defines the finish time. A punch in a finish unit is ignored. This option can be used to excuse some classes from a tough finish.
You can also control settings for Rogaining on this page.
Importing courses
You can import courses from a course setting program like OCAD or Condes. MeOS will also try to tie courses and classes automatically and setup relay forkings (but please verify the result!). If the course file does not contain class information, you may instead check Create a class for each course to created classes anyway.If the file you import contains distances between controls, MeOS will store this information and use it to calculate running speed between controls. You can edit these distances manually by clicking Edit Leg Lengths.
Hint
MeOS can also import courses from a simple course format: One course per row, separate controls using a comma. You may (but it is not required) that a row starts with the course name.
