Welcome to the open water module!

A meet in this sport on the SwimSystemApp platform goes through two separate tools, used at different moments of your event:

  • The web admin panel (the Open Water group in the sidebar), where the organization registers the meet, events, age groups, starts (waves) and points tables, and receives the entries.
  • The desktop app, OW Module: SwimSystemApp, installed on the control desk computer. It downloads the meet, works without internet and coordinates the tablets and devices on the beach over the local network: check-in, marking, manual finish timing, relays, reports, broadcast graphics and venue screen.

The usual path is: set up in the admin → receive entries → assign bib numbers → download the meet to the desktop app → check-in and marking → starts and finishes → set events as official → reports and upload to the cloud.
