Our solution for pistol is completely integrated in the total system. This means that the target unit is completely compatible with the other targets.
The control of the red and green lamps is integrated into the software of the display unit and the MLRange program. No extra cabling or equipment is required! The advantages of this are:

Display
unitThe display unit in the ML2000 system is designed to fit the shooting range environment and to provide the shooter with precise information. The use requires minimal training.
The unit can be folded by twisting the base plate up in front of the LCD screen. This provides protection of the unit and simplifies transport. The monitor can easily be placed directly on any shooting range.
The monitor is connected to a outlet at the front of the shooting range. This single connection provides both communication and power supply (12V). At the back of the display there is a pocket to put the cable for transport and storage.
The monitor is ideal both for ranges that can be locked and for ranges where the equipment must be removed after shooting. The base plate is prepared for fixed mounting in a stand, but we normally recommend direct placement on shooting range or shooting table.
The display is large and easily readable. The marking is clear with emphasis on the information that is critical for the shooter.
Operation of the unit is done with four buttons and on screen functions. The menu system is easy to learn.
The information at the shooting screen are the following:

The MLRes program benefits from the advantages of the windows environment. We had to write the program from bottom to achieve some additional benefits that are becoming rare in today’s computing business:
The innovative user interfaces provides excellent overview of data and functions. The program consists of three main areas:
In addition there are both menu functions, tool bar functions, status bar information and an extensive online help.
A new competition is created with two simple dialogs where you provide the following key information:
This information is used to automatically create normal competitions. However the data structure and user interfaces allows the user to create special competitions from scratch or to modify a ordinary competition configuration. All elements can be adjusted, including classes, shooting program, awards etc.
This enables MLRes to handle a wide range of ordinary and special competitions regardless of the complexity.
When you register shooters, a database is built automatically. This database contains the shooter data (name, class and club). This database simplifies registration since a match is found very fast. The program is delivered with some club databases for the Norwegian market. This can easily be expanded to other markets.
MLRes is a mature network based solution that gives you the opportunity to work together (even with the same relay) from several PCs in the network. In this way you can handle shooter registration directly with the program and at the same time print lists, edit misspelled names etc from other PCs.
A wide range of lists from results to statistics and labels are available. Most reports can be printed, previewd or saved to different file formats. By defining award rules you will have access to result lists fitting your competition. If you have no need for award definition or simply need a result list before the award setups is ready, you can manually choose all possible list combinations.
When saving reports to file you can choose between RTF, HTML and plain text format. The RTF format provides full editing possibility in word processors like MS-Word.
MLRes handles exchange with several electronic scoring systems. The exchange includes sending name, class, club, startsum etc. to the scoring system and fetching the results from the ranges after shooting. The following systems are supported
A system for handling team competitions are included in MLRes. This system is easy to use, but still powerful enough to handle almost all possible team competitions. Both pre-defined competitions and automatic selection of the best shooters according to given rules are supported. One team competition can mix participants from different events with varying shooting programs!
MLRes supports import and export for two Norwegian suppliers of self service WEB registration for competitions.
MLRes generates two kinds of WEB sites:
All reports can also be saved to HTML format.
The audience viewer presents name, shots and sums in real time during shooting.
The solution is based on a standard Windows program. This means that regular PC screens or video projectors can be used. Technically a TV can be connected, but this technology provides terrible resolution with practically useless images.
The system is designed to be installed on one PC in the network only. Access to the viewer and management are obtained from any PC in the network without any installation. The common configuration management is particularly useful since this eliminates the need for running around the range to manage individual PC's.
Even the change between different events within a large competition is handled without need for local changes on each viewer!
With MLView it is very easy to configure different pictures depending on needs/requirements for each competition or event. You are free to decide to use one screen with all the information on one picture or a few alternating pictures or you can have more screens with different static pictures.
With this new generation viewer you can also mix targets from several ranges in one picture. You can also mix graphical and list based view in the same picture! Actually the same target can be displayed in different modes on same picture (see example above)....
When the viewer is started it will automatically follow the activity at the range and the office. When the range office changes the relay, the MLView will do the same. Even a new competition is handled automatically. Changes in names at the office are updated automatically in the viewer if the name is in use.
All sums are updated after each shot.
All changes in the configuration of the range management program will be handled dynamically by MLView. This is true even for changes in target type, shooting program, valuesystem etc.
Sighting shots and open final shots can be displayed in real time. For closed finals there will be no marking for the shooters or the audience during the shooting. After shooting is finished the range office starts the final marking system in MLRange. In this mode the range officer selects which target to mark. This target is displayed on all the monitors and the audience screen. The marking is then done shot by shot for the complete series. The range officer then changes to the next target.
MLView handles this marking automatically according to the range officer’s management in MLRange.
Graphical views are used for ISSF finals. The qualification sum is included in the total and there is a possibility to use a ranking number that is updated for each shot. This provides superb overview.
A special mode with emphasis on the last shot is often used in this kind of final.
