Summary

Explore various options for displaying cross country individual and team scores on physical scoreboards with AthleticLIVE.

AthleticSB

Individual Results and Team Scores

Our AthleticSB XC Summary board allows you to display individual results and team scores on your physical boards. Display results at each split and the finish.

There are two ways to retrieve result data.

Online Data

This is recommended if you are already sending data from FinishLynx to AthleticLIVE and have a reliable internet connection at the meet. Start your board(s), and select the event/split you wish to show. As data is uploaded to AthleticLIVE, the scoreboard will show results.

Local Data
Local Data was the original way we built this functionality, but it is much more complex than Online Data. We highly recommend you move to Online Data. It's easier and respects your online scoring settings.

Send results and team scores over your local network. AthleticLIVE Local reads your LIF files, generates results and team scores, and sends over a TCP IP/Port to AthleticSB.

ResultTV/Daktronics

Through AthleticLIVE Local, it is possible to send data via LSS scripts to the scoreboard software of your choice. It works with the FinishLynx LSS format, so you can configure your messages as needed.

Team Scores
