Monitors general information.
We have a variety of integrated monitors in RaceFacer. The monitors are used to provide race information to your clients, or may show advertising pictures or videos. The most commonly used once are Current session monitor, Results monitor, Next session monitor.
Current session monitors It will show the ongoing sessions. All participants will be displayed and next to their names will be their position, kart number, elapsed laps, last time, and the best time. This monitor can be displayed on a big screen on the track, in the waiting room or at the spectators area.
Next session monitors will show the drivers that will participate in the next session. On the screen they will see their kart number and all of the other drivers that will be participating in the session with them. The next session monitor can be placed in your waiting area, so that your clients will be informed when the next session starts. Or in the pit box so that the clients will know on which kart they have to seat. Here you have several options. You can set up several upcoming sessions on one screen. We can make you a different next session monitor. The default one will show the next session and the next one will skip the next session and will show the session after the next one.
Results monitors. These monitors will show the results from the last finished session. On them you can see all the drivers with their position, kart numbers, number of laps, best lap time. This monitor can be put on the exit of your pit so every driver can check their results when they finish their session.
