Introduction
about_introduction_text
<p>SI-Droid Event is an Android app that makes it possible to arrange simple orienteering events with SportIdent without
having to bring along more than a mobile phone/tablet and a SI Readout Station to the event site. No need for a computer anymore.</p>

<p>The basic idea when using the app is that it should need as little preparation as possible before the event.
The only preparation you need to do is to configure the name, date and zero time (especially if SICard5 is used) of the event under
<b>Settings</b> to be ready. The rest is easily handled at the same time as the runners are finishing.</p>

<p>To be able to connect the SI Readout Station to the phone, a USB-OTG adapter is needed. Such an adapter should be available in most phone or electronic shops
for less than €10. When connecting a station via the USB-OTG adapter to your device, take care not to damage the USB port in your device. The USB port could easily
break if you e.g. drop the station while it's connected to the phone.

<p>IMPORTANT: When a USB Station or a serial-to-USB converter is connected to the phone, the dialog <b>Choose an app for the USB device</b> will automatically be shown. <p><b><font color=red>For the readout to work properly, it's very important that the SI-Droid Event app is actively selected in this dialog and that the
notification becomes visible in the notification area!</font></b> <p>If this has not been done, you will not be able to read out any cards.

<p>There is a notification icon <img src='ic_stat_simaster.png'/> that belongs to the app which shows up in the notification area. When this notification icon is visible,
it will mean that the app have contact with either an SI Station or a serial-to-USB converter and can receive card readouts.
When the notification icon is blinking it indicates that the app is active talking to the station and reads out a card.

<p>It is not necessary for the main window of the app to be visible for card readouts to be possible. The important thing is that the notification is showing.
This also means that readouts will be possible even if the screen is turned off and locked or if e.g. a phone call is being made.

<p>Shutdown the entire app, including the card readout, by opening the app and choose <b>Exit</b> in the main menu.
about_tabReadout_title
Tab Readout
about_tabReadout_text
<b><font color=red>NOTE: The free (Lite) version of the app only allows readout if there are fewer than 10 SICards already in the app!</font></b>

<p>When a SICard is read out it will be shown at the top of the readout list, with an orange background.
By clicking on one card, you will get a view of all available card data from the readout. Depending on the setting done in
<b>Lookup of Card owner</b> you can get the app to automatically retrieve the runners name and club from any of these places:
<ol>
<li>From an already read out card in the event with the same number</li>
<li>A user-defined file on the device's local storage. The file is recommended to be saved in UTF-8 format if any kind of special characters are needed.
Each row in the file should look like:<br/>
<code>SICard nbr, Runner name, Club name, External id, Course name</code></li>
Only the first two parts (card nbr and runner name) is mandatory, the rest is optional. Rows not matching this pattern will be ignored.<br/>
Note: It is also allowed to use semicolon (;) as a separator, instead of the comma which makes it simple to use e.g. Excel for creating the list and saving it as a CSV-file.<br/>
If a course name is added as the fifth part on a row, the runner will be assigned to that course regardless if the punches in the card matches that course or not.
If a course with that name doesn't yet exist, it will be created as a new course without any controls.
<li>From an SICard archive on the Internet (mostly Swedish runners; Mobile or Wifi coverage must be available)</li>
<li>Directly from the owner data stored on the SICard (SICard6 or later)</li>
</ol>
Runners name, club, status and punches can also manually be edited by either long pressing on a card in the list and selecting <b>Change Runner Details</b>
or by first clicking on the card and then selecting the Edit icon <img src='ic_action_edit.png'/>. In the Edit Runner dialog it is possible to expand it to also show the
runners punches by pressing the down arrow <img src='ic_expand_more_black.png'/> in the bottom right corner. There it is possible to change start time,
finish time and all the punches for the runner. The plus icon <img src='ic_action_add_black.png'/> and trash icon <img src='ic_action_trash_black.png'/>
on the right on every row, adds and removes the punch at that control.

<p>If there is a matching course found for the read out card, the runner is automatically assigned to that course and code checking will
be performed. If the wrong course gets assigned to the runner, you can manually reassign the runner to the correct course either by
long pressing on the card in the list and select <b>Change Runners Course</b> or by clicking on the card and then select the left course icon
<img src='ic_action_change_course.png'/> (the one with an update icon on the bottom right).

<p>If no matching course can be found for a card, the runner will be assigned to the course 'No course'. This will also mean that the runner
is directly set to OK as long as there is a finish punch/time in the card. There will not be any code checking at all performed for the runners
assigned to this course.

<p>It is also possible to define a new course based on all the codes registered in a card. This is very handy to use when the first runner on
each course comes to the finish. This is done either by long pressing a card in the list and selecting <b>Create Course from Card</b>
or by clicking on the card and then choose the right course icon <img src='ic_action_add_course.png'/> (the one with a plus sign on the bottom right).
In the dialog you can name the course and make any other modifications to it before saving it as a new course.

<p>If there is a Bluetooth receipt printer configured in the Settings, it will be possible to print a split time receipt for a runner. In the details view of the
runner there is a receipt icon <img src='ic_action_receipt.png'/> that will print the split times on the receipt printer. It is also possible to configure
different levels of automatic printing in the Settings. Read more about split time printers in the Settings and on the
<a href=http://www.joja.se/index.php/Bluetooth_Printers>homepage</a> for the app.

<p>Completely remove a card from the app by either long press on a card and then selecting <b>Delete Runner</b>
or by clicking on a card and then select <b>Delete Runner</b> from the menu.

<p>If a runner doesn't have a card with him, it is still possible to add him to the event. By pressing the plus icon <img src='ic_action_new.png'/>, a dialog
will appear in which it is possible to type the runners name and club. It is also possible to enter the start and finish times for the runner.

<p>SI-Droid Event supports using and reading out the same SICard multiple times during an event. As long as the data in the card has been changed
in some way, the card will be read out as any other card. If, however a runner accidentally reads her card twice in a row, the second card
will not be accepted since identical data has already been read. When this happens, a brief explanatory text is shown on the screen.
about_tabCourses_title
Tab Courses
about_tabCourses_text
Under the tab <b>Courses</b> all defined courses are listed.

<p>SI-Droid Event can handle three different types of courses:
<ul>
<li>Normal OL-courses where all controls must be visited in the exact order as they are entered in the course.</li>
<li>Score courses with a time limit and an optional penalty when the runner is late. This course type is also known as Rogaining.</li>
<li>Score courses with a point limit. The runner must collect a certain number of points/controls to be OK. This type can be used for free order courses.</li>
</ul>

<p>By clicking on a particular course, you get a view of all available data for it.
The data for the course can be changed either by a long press in the list + <b>Change Course</b> or a click in the list + selecting
the Edit icon <img src='ic_action_edit.png'/>. The following things can be changed for a course:
<ul>
<li>The name of the course</li>
<li>The type of the course</li>
<li>For a Score course, it's possible to change the time/point limit and the penalty.</li>
<li>The controls for the course. Separate the controls with a space when entering them.<br>
For Score courses every control optionally have an assigned point value. The control code and the point value should be separated by either a ':' or a '-', e.g. 120-3.
Score courses can also have mandatory controls anywhere on the course. Use a point value of zero (0) for those. A control without a point value is counted as one point.</li>
<li>The length of the course (in meters). This is used in the results and for calculating the average speed of the runner.</li>
<li>The climb of the course (in meters). If the value is set it will be used in the results</li>
<li>If the course should have its own start time and the actual start time in that case. The start time will only be applied to runners that doesn't have a
start punch/time registered in the card.</li>
</ul>
It is also possible to manually create a new course by clicking on the plus icon <img src='ic_action_new.png'/> and delete a course by selecting <b>Remove course</b>
or clicking the trash icon <img src='ic_action_discard.png'/>.

<p>If you want to change the ordering of the courses, it can be done by long pressing on the course you want to move and then choose either <b>Move Up</b> or
<b>Move Down</b> in the menu. This will affect the course ordering for all types of results and reports.

<p>If you already have courses defined in e.g OCAD, it is possible to import them via the menu option <b>Import Courses</b>.
The courses must first be exported from the course setting software as an IOF XML v2.0.3/v3.0 course file and copied to the SD card. When reimporting courses,
courses that have the exact same name will be updated instead of creating a new course.

<p>As soon as a change is made for a course, all the assigned runners' results will automatically be recalculated.
about_tabResult_title
Tab Results
about_tabResult_text
Under the <b>Results</b> tab, all read out cards/runners are listed for each course in their result order. Here it is also possible to click
on a runner and get all the card details. It is also possible to click on the course row (in orange) to hide/show all the results for that course.

<p>By clicking the Share icon <img src='ic_action_share.png'/> it is possible to generate the following result reports: <ul>
<li>A straightforward result without any split times as a simple HTML page.</li>
<li>A complete split times report including all intermediate times and positions.</li>
<li>As an IOF v3.0 XML file (with split times). This file can then be imported to WinSplits or another kind of result system.</li>
<li>A split times report in the old OE2003/MT2003 CSV format. This file can e.g. be used for sharing split times on the site splitsbrowser.org.uk</li>
<li>A report with all cards in the event as a SportIdent CSV file</li>
<li>The whole event as a <a href='http://www.melin.nu/meos/en'>MeOS</a> backup for further post-processing.</li>
<li>A combined results report. When the same card has a result on more than one course, all those results are combined into a total result. This report comes
in three different variations as well. If a card has run the same course more than once, You can select if the best, the first or the last run from that course
should be the one counted towards the total result</li> </ul>

<p>All the different types of reports can be shared in the following ways: <ul>
<li>A simple preview in the web browser of the device.</li>
<li>Share the file through one of the other apps installed, e.g. Email, Dropbox or Google Drive</li>
<li>Export the file to a place of your choice.</li> </ul>

<p>If there is a Bluetooth receipt printer configured in the Settings, a receipt icon <img src='ic_action_receipt.png'/> will be shown. By clicking the icon
it is possible to print a simple result report for the whole event.
about_manageDb_title
Manage database
about_manageDb_text
The app have a single database that only can contain one event. The data in the database/event can though be exported (backed up) and later be imported (restored)
again into the database. If you want to switch to a new event you should first backup the current data and then clear all data in the database. After that you
are ready for a new event and still have a backup of the old event.

<p>All backups are saved on internal or external storage with event name and a timestamp. If you want to remove old backups you currently have to do that from
outside of the app.

<p>In the Manage DB menu it is possible to do the following: <ul>
<li>Show some statistics about the event</li>
<li>Save a backup copy of the entire event to the SD card</li>
<li>Restore an event from a previously saved backup (only in Full version, not in Lite)</li>
<li>Erase all data for the current event, e.g when starting a new event</li>
<li>Restore an example event which can be useful for testing the app without access to a real SI Station</li> </ul>
