Configuring HyTek FTP Uploads
FTP Settings
This article explains how to upload results from HyTek's Meet Manager to AthleticLIVE.
Step 1: Enter Credentials
Open HyTek's Meet Manager, and then open the Run screen from the menu bar.

Once you're on the Run the Meet screen, choose Web from the menu bar.

Choose the Log-in tab, and then copy the FTP upload credentials from your Meet Details into the dialog box. Ensure that Do not Upload... is unchecked. Ensure that Enable F10, F11, and F12 from Run is checked. If your meet director prefers to publish performance lists, rather than heat sheets, check the Upload Performance Lists only box.

If you're using AthleticLIVE Local, then you should copy these settings directly from the main page on AthleticLIVE Local, rather than from your Meet Details page. See Introduction to AthleticLIVE Local and Install and Operate AthleticLIVE Local for more information.
Once all credentials have been entered, click Test Web Site Connection to ensure the connection is working properly. If the connection is functioning, you'll get a successful connection message.
Step 2: Configure Settings
Navigate to the Settings tab, and ensure your settings match the screen below. You can ignore the color settings.

Step 3: Preferences
We need to ensure that Meet Manager includes all the data AthleticLIVE needs in the reports uploaded to AthleticLIVE.
On the Run the Meet screen, select Preferences Web Real-Time from the menu bar.

Configure your settings to match the screen below. All items should be checked except for:
- Prior Round Results under Include in Heat Sheets / Performance Lists (this duplicates data that has already been uploaded and can slow the upload)
- Team Scores under Team Scores (AthleticLIVE auto-calculates team scores based on each result's point value)
- All Prior Round Results under Include in Results (this duplicates data that has already been uploaded and can slow the upload)
- Results by Heat/Flight and Compiled (AthleticLIVE will only display compiled results unless you upload heat-by-heat results using the
F11
key in Meet Manager or you enable heat-by-heat results from FinishLynx)

That's it! You're ready to upload your results and entries to AthleticLIVE!
Uploading Event Schedule
Open HyTek's Meet Manager, and then open the Run screen from the menu bar.

Once you're on the Run the Meet screen, choose Web from the menu bar.

Make sure Include Session Title if Sort by Session is checked.

Choose the Log-in tab, and then click Upload Event Schedule.

Within a minute, your session schedule will be available on AthleticLIVE. Viewers will be able to view the order of events and see which events have entries and/or results.
Upload Event Entries
Open HyTek's Meet Manager, and then open the Run screen from the menu bar.

Once you're on the Run the Meet screen, choose Web from the menu bar.

Select the Log-in tab.
When uploading event entries, you can choose to either upload heat sheets or performance lists, depending on what your meet host prefers. To upload performance lists, check the Upload Performance Lists only box.

Click Upload Heat Sheets or Performance Lists for Rounds Not Done, then select a session or All Events from the popup and click OK.

Choose whether you want to include scratches in the performance lists or heat sheets.

Performance Lists/Heat Sheets will begin uploading. After the upload is complete, a pop-up will say how many performance lists were uploaded.
Upload Team File
Uploading a team file will allow you to publish heat-by-heat results and avoid truncated team names.
In Hytek's Meet Manager
From the home screen, select Schools or Teams from the menu bar.

Review the team list for accuracy, then click Export to HTML from the menu bar.

Choose where you'd like to save the file, and then click OK.

In AthleticLIVE
Access your Meet Details page and choose Upload Teams.

Click Choose File and select the file you just exported from Meet Manager.

Click Upload File.
Your teams will be added to AthleticLIVE within a minute.
Upload Rosters
Using competitor numbers and uploading rosters ensures that you don't get any truncated names from HyTek's Meet Manager result uploads.
Additionally, you'll need to assign competitor numbers in Meet Manager. No changes from the default competitor numbering settings are necessary.
In HyTek's Meet Manager
Open the Run screen from the menu bar.

Select Preferences Web Real-Time from the menu bar.

Ensure that Include Competitor Number is checked.

From the home screen or the Run the Meet screen, select Athletes from the menu bar.

From the Athletes screen, select Export to HTML from the menu bar.

Choose where you'd like to save the file, and then click OK.


In AthleticLIVE
Access your Meet Details page and choose Upload Rosters.

Click Choose File and select the file you just exported from Meet Manager.

Click Upload File.
For small roster files, the athletes will be added to AthleticLIVE within a minute. For larger roster files, processing may take a bit. You will receive an email once the file has been processed.
