"Auto Score" is Orion's technology to scan paper targets, assign them to the correct athlete, and then score the targets. There are lots of different ways to use Auto Score, which come down to how you wish to assign competitor numbers, preparing and marking targets, and finally scanning targets.

This article is about using auto-score when you have targets for only a single athlete and without barcode labels.

Use Case

Using Auto-Score for a single athlete works best when using one of the following:

•Single-bull targets.

•Targets without barcode labels.

•A flat-bed scanner.

Procedure

To use Auto-Score for a single athlete:

1.Load the scanner with only targets from one athlete.

2.Select the 'Match Scoring' tab.

3.On the left hand side, in the Target Tree view, click the plus sign ([+]) next to Targets, then the plus sign next to Relay 1 to see the list of athletes.

4.Right click on the athlete, you are scanning targets for, and select 'Scan Targets For' and then the position. Orion will scan the target, load it into the program, assign the target to the athlete, and score. Depending on the speed of the Orion workstation, this may take several seconds.

Orion will assign the target series as the next highest series for that athlete and position.

5.If additional targets from that athlete remain, load the scanner with the remaining un-scored targets, and repeat until all targets are scored.

NOTE: If a target has a target identifier label, or has the position or series bubbles filled in, this information will override the Auto-Score process for single athletes.
