1. The components of Vola-SkiAlp-Pro suite The SkiAlp-Pro suite consists of several software having complementary features <SkiAlp-Pro> is the master software of the suite. It is the management software for timing and computer data for alpine ski racing. It enables you to manage your race (FIS, national, without points, etc..) from A to Z. It generates also export files to be sent to the FIS or to your national federation. - <Display-SkiAlp-Pro> takes information from <SkiAlp-Pro> and enables to broadcast the results of your live events on a cable network of TV monitors. It is particularly ideal for speakers having the task to comment the race.
- <Video-SkiAlp-Pro> receives information from <SkiAlp-Pro> and processes graphical keying of it over a HDMI TV video stream. - <Live-SkiAlp-Pro> is a Web interface which uses information from <SkiAlp-Pro> and offers the possibility to broadcast live information over the Internet (competitors on course, net times, rankings, etc..). Live SkiAlp-Pro is rented for one year period. You can alos easily host the information of your competitions on your website, if this is your wish. - <Live-SkiAlp-Pro FIS> is also a web interface offering the possibility to broadcast live information on the web page of the FIS. This appliction is free of charge.
2 - The protection of the components of <Vola-SkiAlp-Pro> suite. - The protection against fraudulent copies of <SkiAlp-Pro>, <Display-SkiAlp-Pro> and <Video-SkiAlp-Pro> is provided by the presence of a USB <Dongle> protection key on the computer running <SkiAlp-Pro>. - When purchasing software or updates, the codes allowing the software to operate are entered in the dongle. - A <Dongle> can store several software components validation codes each one in its own version. (Example : a sole <Dongle> can store the validations to use <SkiAlp-Pro> version 2.0.07, <Display-SkiAlp-Pro> version 2.0.02, <Msports-Pro> version 2.27.1, etc.) - In case of a network use, the <Dongle> containing the codes for <SkiAlp-Pro> or <Display-SkiAlp-Pro>, and optionally <Video-SkiAlp-Pro> must always be plugged in the computer running <SkiAlp-Pro>. - For <Live-SkiAlp-Pro> the control is done on our Web server according to the rental period. There is no test mode for <Live-SkiAlp-Pro>. 3 - The different ways of using <SkiAlp-Pro>. - The <SkiAlp-Pro> software operates in two modes : <Free> mode (free of charge) and <Extended> mode. - <Extended> mode requires the acquisition of a license : - The purchase of an user license for the software is controlled by a <Dongle> protection key. This <Dongle> must be correctly coded for <SkiAlp-Pro> at the version which is used. - The <Dongle> must be plugged in the computer on which you wish to run <SkiAlp-Pro> in <Extended> mode. - <SkiAlp-Pro> can be installed on several computers in <Free> mode. The <Dongle> installation will determine the computer on which <SkiAlp-Pro> runs in <Extended> mode. - Operating in <Extended> mode gives access to all the features of <SkiAlp-Pro> (access to all timing devices and scoreboards, all competitor fields (Transponder, Category, Nation, Team, ), filters, exports possible in several other formats (XLS, TXT, HTML, FTP), possibility to send data to <Live-SkiAlp-Pro> and <Video-SkiAlp-Pro>). 4 - Software versions numbering. - Depending on changes in rules or additions of features, we perform free or paying updates. - Software components are identified with their version numbers which are of type <Version x.y.zz>. - Updates are not free if the number <x> changes. Example : You switch for free from a version 2.3.05 to a version 2.4.02. But the purchase of an upgrade is necessary to move from version 2.3.05 to version 3.1.01. 5 - Compatibility between software components of different versions. - To operate together, the <Vola-SkiAlp-Pro> softwares suite components must have the numbers of version (Version x.y.zz) with identical <x,y> numbers.
6- Differences between <SkiAlp-Pro><Free> and <SkiAlp-Pro><Extended> <SkiAlp-Pro> <Free> <Extended> - Software protection. - None. - An USB dongle is necessary. - This dongle must be coded for the program at its version. - Main window title.
