Manual Start

Manually eet a start time and optional title from the AthleticSB homepage. To operate the board from the homepage:

  1. Click "Start" on the appropriate board
  2. Click "Set Data"
  3. Enter a title if applicable (Show Title Bar if there is a title? must be checked)
  4. Enter an offset. Can be seconds (30), minutes (1:30), or hours (1:45:00)
  5. Click Save.
  6. The board should now be counting up.

This board only works up to 23 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds.

Local Network

Send running time and an optional title data to AthleticSB from FinishLynx

Identify an open port(s) on the computer running AthleticSB. Usually, any port between 10000 and 60000 will be open. We recommend these two:

  • Runtime Port: 45006
  • Results Port: 45007 (only needed if you plan to send the event title from FinishLynx)

Create one scoreboard in FinishLynx for running time.
