IANSEO Scorekeeper Checklist
Version 1.1 eng

The following points are a list of items to check when using the Scorekeeper app. They are basedon experiences of users at real competitions and can be useful to help prevent common issues.

Hardware• Verify that a WiFi network will be available at the competition venue so the apps can connect tothe competition computer.
• Do not give the general public access to the same WiFi network that the app users will beusing. Too many users can easily overload the network and prevent the scorers from entering
the scores.
• Verify that the WiFi network for the app users can handle the number of device connections
needed.
• Verify that the access points you have provide complete coverage for all the targets/butts. Giveparticular attention to the side of the venue.
• Only use WiFi connections to connect the apps to the access points. The network connection
between the access points, router/switch, Ianseo competition computer should absolutely be aWIRED connection (i.e. using cables).
• If possible, arrange the network so the IANSEO computer has access to the local network (soapps can report scores) and the internet (so results can be published after each end). This is
not absolutely necessary but is nice to have if you want to publish live updates.
• Verify that you have enough mobile devices to cover each target (or target groups if usinggrouping). If not using your own devices, try to determine which users will be using the app
ahead of time. It can be stressful and frustrating trying to arrange app users the day of thecompetition, especially for larger competitions.
• If you have a break in the competition, make sure that the users are reconnected to the WiFi
network when scoring starts if your network does not provide internet access. A lot of users will
disconnect from the WiFi to access the internet during the break.

Software• Make sure you're running the latest version of IANSEO on the competition computer. Update if

needed before competition day.
• Decide if the competition will be a Pro or Lite competition. If you want to use the Pro
functionality, contact the IANSEO group (email: help@ianseo.net) to obtain a Pro license code
before the competition day.
• If you are running a Pro competition, verify that the app works correctly with the Pro code
before the competition.
• Make sure you're running the latest app version. This can be downloaded from the AppStore orGooglePlay. Verify with the scorers using the app that they have the correct version.
• Set up your competition as normal. Setup for the Scorekeeper app can be found under the“software and manuals” page from the website https://www.ianseo.net .
• It is normal to setup the competition in the days/weeks ahead of the competition. Make surethat the IP-address entered in the competition setup for Ianseo Scorekeeper is correct on theday of the competition. It is common that the IP-address that you used earlier at home/club isstill in the competition configuration when you arrive at the venue.
• If you're printing the app QR code on your scorecards, make sure the IP-address in theIANSEO setup is the same as it will be at the competition location. If it is diﬀerent, then thecompetitors scanning codes will not reach the competition computer. This can easily happen if
the scorecards are printed at home the day before and the IP-address is still set to your homenetwork. This is a common issue, so please verify this.

Version 1.1 eng• In addition to the above, if you are preparing the competition on a diﬀerent computer than thecompetition computer and it has a diﬀerent operating system (e.g. Linux vs. Windows), please
be aware that the QR code on the scorecards may contain a URL that may not match thecompetition computer even if the IP-address is correct.
• Verify that the app works correctly with your competition (Lite or Pro) before the competition,
preferably at home or your club, so you can investigate any problems in a calm manner. Tryingto fix problems on competition day can be stressful. On competition day, verify that the appworks correctly with IANSEO upon arrival at the venue. This will prevent surprises when thescorers scan the QR code and try to access the IANSEO computer.
• Enable the network protection in IANSEO to avoid any problems.
• If you are using the PIN code feature, do not change the PIN value after printing the scorecards.
• Check that the session you are scoring in is not locked.

General Tips
• If the archers are using their own devices for scoring, have a few backup devices that can beborrowed, if possible. It is not uncommon for people to have devices that suddenly stop
working, run out of battery, etc. Having a few backup devices that you know function properly
and are fully charged will avoid delays.
• Occasionally, archers will scroll too far in the app and begin scoring on the wrong end. This canbe fixed in the app, but may cause delays especially if almost all other targets have finishedscoring. An alternative is to take the paper scoresheet and correct the values directly in
IANSEO while the shooters are shooting the next end. The scoresheet & mobile device can bereturned to the scorer when the archers have finished shooting.
• Occasionally, on certain devices, the scoring buttons can be chopped oﬀ at the bottom. Thissituation can usually be fixed by rotating the phone to landscape format (horizontal) and thenback to portrait mode (vertical).
• When using the Pro functionality for restricted scoring, keep in mind not to restrict the next end
as the archers will automatically scroll to that end when the current end is finished. If it isrestricted, then it will be locked and they will not be able to score that end.
