Ex. Lap event

A typical lab event is:

Complete as many laps as possible within a certain time frame
Complete a set number of laps as fast as possible
Complete a set minimum number of laps to complete the race and at the same time do not exceed a set maximum number of laps

To set up a lap race please activate 'Loops & Laps' in 'Event setup' → 'Event settings' → 'Features'.

For each lap race choose 'Advanced' → 'Loop setup'.

Note that a minimum lap time must be input. If a participant crosses the timing point faster than the set minimum lap time the time stamp will be ignored by the timing system.

The BBT timing software supports five different ways to complete a lap event:

Never (the race never ends)
After exact lap count (the race finishes once a set minimum number of laps have been completed)
After interval lap count (the race finishes once a set minimum number of laps have been completed)
After time limit (the race finishes after a set time)
After time limit + finish current lap (the race finishes when the participant reaches the Finish line the first time after the race clock has passed a set time)

Some events such as MTB races contain a start loop. Normally, a start loop is completed faster than the remaining laps of the race. In this case you must set up a 'First lap' som er en forkortet del af ruten, for at få spredt deltagerne ud inden man kører ud på den fulde omgang. Et start loop vil typisk altid gennemføres hurtigere end en fuld omgang. I det tilfælde skal man under “First lap” sætte at der er et Start loop (lap 0) og sætte en særskilt minimum tid for denne.

Hvis man har et lap setup med en start split og en finish split, hvor man efter finish linjen kan køre i pit eller lave transition/udskiftning på sit hold, skal man afkrydse Options: Lap transition time counts as deadzone in the chip finish time. På den måde vil tiden imellem finish og til man starter igen, ikke tælle med i deltageren/holdets chip finish time. Ens overall finish time vil stadig tælle tiden i hele perioden.

Note: A race made up of a number of laps we recommend setting up as a normal race with a number of split times equal to the number of laps which must be completed to complete the race.
