IANSEO ScoreKeeper NG Quick Start Guide
Revision 1
This guide will help you get started using the ScoreKeeper NG app. To be fully functional, theapp requires access to the Ianseo Archery software to send and retrieve competition
information.
To use the app, you will need the following:•
One or more mobile devices using the Android or iOS operating system•A computer with the latest version of Ianseo installed•
Local WiFi connection accessible by the device and the Ianseo computer

Lite, Pro, or Live?
With the release of the NG app, there is continued support for Lite and Pro competitions andnow a new option, Live. All three types allow you to score arrows at the target but Pro is focusedon professional competitions and allows you to con gure the devices directly from Ianseo andsee real-time status of each device and archer when scoring. Any competition can be Lite, but
Pro competitions require a license key that can be obtained from ianseo.net.
The Live option is similar to Pro and is also used for professional competitions, but is for very
advanced users that require more precise control of the scoring devices. Live requires the useof an extra module to provide fast two-way communication with the devices as well as special
licensing requirements.

Important Information
Ianseo and the Ianseo ScoreKeeper NG App are provided “as-is” without any form of liability,implicit or explicit. Any use at your own risk.
Ianseo is a exible, highly-con gurable system so we strongly recommend that you test the app
with your competition after you have nished the con guration, and before you start yourcompetition.

Con guring the network
To function properly, this app requires access to the Ianseo archery software. The easiest way
to accomplish this is to use a local WiFi connection (wireless router) to which the Ianseo
computer and the mobile devices connect. The diagram below shows a possible con guration
for connecting the devices to the scoring computer. For information regarding the proper
installation and con guration of wireless connections, refer to the owner’s manual for yourspeci c computer/router.

Obtaining the software
Ianseo Archery software can be downloaded here: https://www.ianseo.net/Releases.php
Ianseo ScoreKeeper NG can be downloaded from Google Play (Android) or AppStore (iPhone).

Begin by starting the Ianseo software on your computer and creating a competition as you
normally would. To activate the settings for ScoreKeeper NG, edit the competition information bychoosing the menu item Competition, Edit Competition, Competition Info. In the lower partof the screen you will see the area to enter the information for the app.

To activate Lite, choose Ianseo Scorekeeper NG from the list. Note that you must choose theNG option, as NG is not compatible with the previous Scorekeeper app. The Server Url is the ipaddress that was assigned by the wireless router to the Ianseo computer. Enter “http://“ togetherwith the ip-address to enable the app settings. Note: if this value of the ip-address changes forany reason, the value here must be updated accordingly.
The PIN code (4 numeric digits), while not mandatory, is a security feature to prevent nonauthorized users, who have gained access to the scoring network and know the competitioncode (public on the printout), from entering random points and compromising the hard work of
the organizing committee.
For Pro competitions, you will need to choose Ianseo Scorekeeper NG - Pro and enter yourlicense key as well. The con guration screen looks similar to the one below:

License keys are speci c to a single competition and can be obtained from Ianseo by sending
an email to codes@ianseo.net at least a week before the competition. In the very near future
Pro codes need to be purchased by clicking on the link that will be present in the activation
email when you request your competitions be published on ianseo.net.
For Live competitions, this requires special knowledge on how to install the extra module(s),routines for running the competition, as well as a special license key speci cally for Live. Pleasecontact us at scorekeeper@ianseo.net to discuss the possibility of using LiveDistances
The distance information is very important to the app, so you must check that this is con gured
correctly. Choose the menu item Competition, Edit Competition, Manage Distances. Verify
that all distances for the competition are de ned and contain correct values for Ends andArrows/End.

Target Types
The target types information is also very important. Choose the the menu item Competition,
Edit Competition, Manage Targets and verify that all the divisions/classes used in thecompetition have a valid target type de ned.
Scorecard QR-code
For Pro competitions, you can setup all devices with a single QR code. Choose the menu item
ISK, Print QR Con guration Codes and the QR will be generated; the QR code is the samefor all devices. The session and target number will be con gured directly in Ianseo.
For Lite competitions, Ianseo provides an easy way to setup the app before a competition bycreating a QR-code that contains the competition information. To generate this code, choose themenu item Quali cation, Scorecard Printout and verify that the Print QR Code for Ianseo
ScoreKeeper NG option is chosen.

Choose the session, target numbers, and optionally a distance to be used when creating thescorecards. Clicking on the Print Scores button will generate the scorecards and a QR code
unique for that target (and optionally distance). Similar options are available when creatingscorecards for individual and team matches.

Page 4Target Grouping
The app supports scoring multiple targets with the same device. This reduces the number ofdevices needed for a competition. To con gure this function, choose the menu item ISK, Device
Grouping and select the desired session. Enter a name for the group, click to choose thedesired target numbers, and then the Save icon to save the row. Repeat until all the target
groups have been de ned. If a single target will be scored by one device, it does not need to bede ned.
It is also possible to have Ianseo create the groups for you using the Bulk Groups Creation.
Simply enter the number of devices for each group along with the starting and ending target
numbers. When you press the Bulk Groups Creation, Ianseo will automatically create all thegroups.

Manage Locked Session
Ianseo has a system to lock and manage the sessions/phases to prevent the unauthorizedchange of data when running a Lite competition. Under the ISK menu for Lite competitions,
there is a new item, Manage Locked Sessions, that gives the possibility to select in whichsession the archers can input their scores. You can see from the image below, it is possible tolock or unlock the different phases simply by clicking on the icon for the desired phase. This will
toggle the status between unlocked (green) or locked (red). In this way the results manager cancontrol in which session and phase the archers can score.

Con guring the Ianseo ScoreKeeper NG App
Pro Setup
From the ISK menu, choose Device Management. You should see a screen which looks similar
the one below. Initially, there should be no devices in the list.

Start the Scorekeeper NG app on the device and the screen
to the right should be displayed. Press the Setup app using
QR code button and scan the previously generated QRcode. The app will contact the Ianseo computer and, if all
the information is correct, the app should display a page withthe message “Give to Results Crew”. The app willcontinuously request the con guration from Ianseo until thedevice is approved in Device Management screen in Ianseo.
Return to the device management screen and the device
should now be displayed on a row of its own. The device
can be veri ed by comparing the Device ID on the app
screen with the value in the Device ID column. The device
should have a red circle icon in the Tournament column. Inthe target column, set the desired target # (click on it andchange) and then press the red icon in the Tournamentcolumn to authorize this device. The icon will change to agreen circle.
Perform the above steps for each device to be used. Once
done, the devices are ready to receive the con guration.
Each device will get a short device id (e.g. 0001, 0002)
which is shown in the header bar of the device and in thedevice management screen. This allows for easieridenti cation of individual devices.
To send the con guration to all the devices, choose the correct Scheduled Competition Phaseand distance(s) if needed. Press the Send button. The Enabled column for the devices shouldchange from a red circle to a green circle. The devices will soon retrieve the updated
con guration; after that, they check every 30 seconds for updated con guration. The column
Last Seen shows the number of seconds since Ianseo had contact with the device. Once thecon guration has been set on the device, the scoring information with a list of archers should
then be displayed. The device is now ready for scoring.

Page 6Lite Setup
There are two ways to con gure the app for a Lite competition — automatically, by scanning aQR code, or manually. Scanning a QR code is by far the easiest. Once the app is started, click
the Setup app using QR code button and scan the QR code on the scorecard. If all theinformation in the QR code is correct, a screen similar to the one below will be shown. If thedistance has also been included in the QR code you will only need to press the Save button tocontinue. If the QR code only contains the basic competition information, then you will have tochoose the Event Selection options manually.
The exact contents of the setup screen will vary slightly depending on the type of competition
and what the current stage of the competition is.

It is possible to con gure the app manually by pressing the Manual set up button on the startscreen instead of scanning the QR code. This will allow manual entry of the url and thecompetition code in the Settings screen above. Note that manual entry of the url will require
technical knowledge of the Ianseo computer installation and setup.
Also on the Settings screen, there are a number of additional items which can be con gured
manually including changing languages and updating of languages.
Scoring
The scoring entry screen is the main screen of the app and will be the one most used by thearchers. This screen is the same for Lite, Pro, and Live competitions. After setup, a screen
similar to the one below on the left will be displayed. The appearance may differ slightly
depending on the archery discipline (target/ eld/3D) and the type of mobile device used.

Information regarding the current end, target number, archer information, and target type isclearly displayed. Tapping on an archer in the list will display the scoring screen (below right).
The arrow values are entered using the larger, colored buttons. The current row and arrow areclearly highlighted. The command buttons at the bottom of the screen have functions to clearthe selected arrow or all arrow values for the current end. If a single value needs to be changed,that value can be selected by clicking on it.

It is possible to switch between the scoring screen and the scorecard view by tapping the icon
next to the archer’s name. Once the arrows for the current end have been entered, the app willautomatically return to the list of archers.
Connection Status
The user can easily see the status of the Ianseo connection by looking at the status icon in the
top right-hand corner of the app. This icon will have one of the following appearances:

Results Handling in Ianseo
In addition to Device Management, Pro competitions have special functions in Ianseo to provide
real-time status of each device and archer scoring. Before scoring begins, click on the ISK,
Results menu item. A suggestion is to open this in a separate browser tab so you can quickly
jump back and forth between Device Management and Results if needed.
The Results screen should look similar to the image below. Each target is shown separately
with the individual squares for each archer. As the archers score the arrows, the color of the title
and squares will change automatically. A legend showing the colors and their meanings isshown below the target list. Clicking on the "i" (info) icon will bring up a list of the archers on thetarget; during scoring, the arrow values will be shown next to each archer. The arrows values
can be Removed or Imported by clicking on the buttons.

Once the archers have nished scoring, the squares should be yellowish in color. This means
the arrows are in a temporary table and not in the of cial results table. Each individual target
can be imported manually, if desired, or all targets can be imported at the same type by clicking
the Import button. This manual process can be eliminated by checking the box for the Auto
Import checkbox. It is also possible to automatically import an entire class of archers when thelast arrow for that class has been entered for the end by checking the Auto Import Partials
checkbox.
When all the targets have nished scoring and the results imported, you can move to the next
end by changing the value in the end eld. This will display the scoring status for that end.
Note: Scorekeeper NG app has an of ine cache to save arrow values if the WiFi/network
connection should be interrupted. If this happens, the connection status icon in the app willchange to red. Any arrows entered while of ine will be saved locally in the device. Once theconnection is restored, the cached arrow values will be sent to Ianseo.
