Missed first finishers

[Graham Hall]

We had an issue a couple of weeks ago...

We had two races, 3km and 5km with different start locations about 200m apart and a fixed finish for both races which was a further 50m away.

Having fired up the finish readers with all the antennas showing green on the settings screen, I went to the 3km start, and recorded chip start times and copied them to a flash drive and took the drive to the finish laptop. In the Time Race screen, started the 3km clock, adjusted the race time as using edit time, and then imported the start times. 

It was then I realised that there was now no green lights showing for the antennas*. Pressing F8 I checked the settings and it was greenlights for all of the antennas. Back on the timing screen there was still nothing. I repeated this without any success.

*Had already disabled the windows setting that shuts down an idle ethernet connection.

I was about to close down ART when I spotted some very small print at the top of the screen

This may have been here for a few updates but I had not noticed - when I clicked refresh everthing fired up but only after the first two finishers had crossed the line. I have since looked into this more closely and this almost makes the F8 function redundant as far as readers are concerned. 

So I am pointing it out for anyone else that may have missed it and also to ask Brian if the circled text can be larger or otherwise highlighted in the next update.

Having the Refresh option here is so useful - saves having to leave the clock screen. Only recently spotted it, too.
