13.6. Timing loop failure during a race event
Preamble
It is possible that timing loops will fail during an event for one reason or another. Ideally the issue would be rectified before racing continues however, it may not be possible to do this and / or it is not possible to stop the racing.
Timing loop / gate signal failure
The table below shows possible issues, symptoms and remediation. In all cases it is possible to continue scoring using the timing loops unless the Finish loop is not working.
Issue | Symptoms | Remediation |
---|---|---|
Gate signal failure | The fastest rider’s Hill time will be 00.000, subsequent riders Hill times will be timed from this point i.e. 00.032, 00.145, 00.371 etc | When there is no gate signal Sqorz will automatically start timing from the first timing loop signal. No manual intervention is required. |
Hill loop Failure | Riders are not scored automatically because there is no Hill loop passing. |
