semi-finals, the finals will be round 1.

Multi: is used for decathlons, heptathlons and
pentathlons. Example, the Event# is the number of the

within the decathlon like the shot put. This is numbered
in the MEET MANAGER. The Multi: field will not
affect the lists unless the Event: field is a

Page: will select which lines of data are displayed. The
page size is set in the MEET MANAGER. If the size is
set to 8 and you have 24 competitors, page 1 will show
place 1-8, page 2 will show 9-16 and page 3 will show 17-
24. If you enter page 0, the competitors will cycle 1-8, 9-
16, 17-24 automatically. The page time is configured in
the MEET MANAGER.
The radio buttons under the Request Type: are used to
