Equipment tracking

Sometimes you want to carry out smaller material or equipment tests. We have developed a process for this that is flexible, efficient and scalable. It makes sense to use a mobile barcode printer for this.

In our example, we are using the Brother PT-P710BT label printer, which is battery-powered and can be controlled via a mobile app. This allows equipment to be easily digitized in the warehouse or on-the-fly on the runway.

With the label printer, we can now add a QR code to all pieces of equipment that are to be recorded (the QR code can be generated easily and free of charge on the Internet by various providers). This saves you typing and spelling mistakes on the slopes and, above all, saves you a lot of time. Simply enter the label to be used for the respective equipment in the printer app.

Several QR codes can be used on different parts. Simple cards can also be used if certain pieces of equipment cannot be affixed:

The athlete now drives through the Timing and at the finish the equipment data is then added.

Click on the labeling icon next to the result where you want to add the equipment information. Now you can use the QR code scanner to quickly add the previously labeled equipment.

Tip: You can scan multiple QR codes by pressing the QR code scanner button again after the first successful scan. Each scan is separated by a hyphen.

Please note that our Premium subscription is required for Equipment Tracking. This offers you many other advantages, such as the reference run, the evaluation of your sector times and the Excel export of all results.
