The O-Store has developed a Windows 10/11 program to allow clubs and organizations with SPORTident timing equipment to run a simple event in youth programs, schools, summer camps, etc. where completion is recorded but running time is not. A course file is loaded at the start, and if a runner completed one of the courses correctly, a short celebratory video clip is displayed, otherwise a "oh no" video is shown.
A (normally hidden) results list shows completion times of runners for each course.
A unique (patent pending) feature is that you do not have to use the control numbers specified on the map. After you've set out your controls, a simple walkthrough of the course with a timing stick allows you to modify the control numbers in the software to match what you have in the field.
This feature was specially designed for the Go4Orienteering Games product but would be usefully in many other cases.
The program can be downloaded here: https://powersoft.ca/files/O-Fun (PowerSoft.ca is my day job - writing software). Once you've installed O-Fun, it has a 15 day evaluation period, after which it requires a license. Upon purchasing this item here you will receive an email from us with the license file.
Please contact us (info@o-store.ca) if you have any questions about this software.
