COLOUR

Introduction

Results software for UK colour coded events (or any non age-class based events). Handles Emit, SportIdent or conventional control cards. For a quick guide to installation and running Colour see Installation Guide

Colour can output splits, on-the-day results and start check reports onto any 8cm wide till receipt printer that is supported by a Windows printer driver (e.g. Epson TM-T88V).

Licencing

A single licence covers the use of both MERCS and Colour (and ancilliary programmes such as Link, View, Live0, LiveFTP). The annual licence is £50 to £100 plus VAT depending on the Club's BOF membership numbers. The licence includes telephone and e-mail support and you may request specific enhancements.

A licence for a one off event is also available.

Time Synchronisation

I strongly recommend NetTime as a simple and suitable SNTP client to ensure that networked PCs are synchronised to GMT/BST (as appropriate for time of year) and to each other. See NetTime.doc for further details.
