# Race Result

Race Result is a German brand of RFID timing equipment. Official website: <https://www.raceresult.com/fr/home/index> Documentation: <https://www.raceresult.com/fr/support/index>

The Race Result brand offers various devices capable of communicating with Wiclax.

## The 5000s Decoder

The 5000s decoder can be connected directly to a PC via TCP/IP. The connection can be wired (using an RJ45 cable) or wireless (Wi-Fi).

On the home screen, you can see the IP address of the 5000s decoder. Here, it is 192.168.202.

You must ensure that the IP address of the PC hosting Wiclax is on the same subnet. In this case, the IP address of your PC (or more precisely, your PC's network card) must start with 192.168.1. and have an address different from that of the 5000s decoder. For example, **192.168.1**.5.

## The Ubidium decoder

The Ubidium model can be connected directly to a PC via TCP/IP. The connection can be wired (using an RJ45 cable) or wireless (Wi-Fi).

On the home screen, the IP address of the Ubidium decoder is visible in the bottom left corner. Here, it is 192.168.1.111.

You must ensure that the IP address of the PC hosting Wiclax is on the same subnet. In this case, the IP address of your PC (or more precisely, your PC's network card) must start with 192.168.1. and have an address different from that of the Ubidium decoder. For example, **192.168.1**.5

## Cloud connexion

In cases where the equipment cannot be connected directly to the PC within a wired or Wi-Fi local network, data must be routed through a cloud server. This is typically the case for an intermediate timing point located along the course.

Two options are available for the 5000 and Ubidium decoders:

* The first option consists of sending the readings to the cloud operated by Race Result. To do this, please refer to the Race Result documentation.

## The loop box

## The active track box and the passive track box

The Track box does not allow a direct connexion to a workstation. Data transmission requires an intermediate cloud server.

By default, the Track Box sends data to the Race Result server, where it can be retrieved by logging in.

## THE USB TIMING BOX

## LOOPS

If multiple loops are connected to the same reader, Wiclax acquisition routing is configured by setting the specific loop number for each destination (in the *@ source* column).

## Store mode

## Photocell and marker

Wiclax implements *marker* processing, which refers to a timestamp generated by activating a cell connected to the reader. This timestamp is used as the most precise time for the associated chip read, subject to the following restrictions:

* The marker value is 99999. This is the default value; while it can be configured on the reader, it cannot be changed within Wiclax.
* Only the configuration with the cell placed upstream (before) the antenna is currently operational.

The maximum validity period for a marker is set to 3 seconds. This means the chip read must occur within 3 seconds of receiving the marker.

## Start signal

The reception of a start signal is based on detecting a passage where the transponder ID equals 999999. This value must be configured on the reader ([see link for more information](https://www.raceresult.com/en-us/support/kb.php?id=3397-Trigger-Impulse--Marker)).\ <br>

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.wiclax.com/en/use-wiclax/acquisition-of-timing-data/the-different-systems/race-result.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
