Kiosk Live screens

A Kiosk Live screen is a custom Live Screen used to display data for an athlete, independently from result acquisition.

It can be useful before the race as a data checking screen, or post race as a photo background for finishers.

Plugging the acquisition

The configuration works this way:

  • there is an RFID reader for the purpose, connected to the main Wiclax

  • the live screen is displayed from the local network, with the ability to reach the main PC address

Once this is in place, you simply need to route the acquisition, i.e. to tell it will process incoming chip reads as data requests for the screen. This is available here on top of the acquisitions settings:

Those methods are also convenient for testing the screen.

Screen design

A Kiosk screen is designed the same way than a regular Live screen.

Simple adaptation to do is to work with Result list kind of widgets, setting their List kind property as Kiosk display. The table can be made of a single row and a single column in the simplest configuration.
