HOSTING JDC VOLTS

TABLET SETUP

ON EACH TABLET, YOU WILL NEED TO GO INTO THE BROWSER AND LOAD HTTPS://KIOSK.DARTSATLAS.COM - THIS WILL DISPLAY THE BELOW SCREEN.

REPEAT THIS PROCESS FOR THE 2 OR 4 TABLETS YOU WILL BE USING.  PLEASE SELECT CONTROL BOARD UNDER THE ADMIN SECTION ON THE FIRST TABLET.

YOU WILL THEN NEED TO SELECT TOURNAMENT, WHICH WILL THEN TAKE YOU TO A PAGE WITH A QR CODE TO SCAN ON YOUR MOBILE DEVICE.

ONCE SCANNED (YOU MAY NEED TO LOGIN TO DARTSATLAS), YOU THEN NEED TO SELECT THE TOURNAMENT & ENTER A BOARD NUMBER.

CLICK CREATE BOARD, AND REPEAT THIS PROCESS FOR BOARDS 2, 3 & 4 IF REQUIRED - PLEASE REMAIN ON THE PAGE ON YOUR TABLET AS THIS WILL NOW BE THE SCORING POINT FOR YOUR COMPETITION.

CHECKING IN & CHECKING OUT

WHEN PLAYERS ARRIVE AT THE VENUE, YOU WILL NEED TO CHECK THEM IN TO THE TOURNAMENT.  PLEASE NAVIGATE TO THE TOURNAMENT HOMEPAGE, AND CLICK THE 3 LINES IN THE TOP RIGHT HAND CORNER UNDERNEATH YOUR PROFILE IMAGE TO ACCESS THE ADMIN PANEL (IF ON A LAPTOP, THIS WILL AUTOMATICALLY DISPLAY ON THE LEFT OF YOUR SCREEN).  ONCE THE MENU APPEARS, SELECT CHECK-IN.  YOU THEN JUST NEED TO SELECT THE TICK TO CHECK THEM IN.  FOR ANY PLAYERS WHO DONT ATTEND, YOU WILL NEED TO CLICK THE RED X.  ALL ENTERED PLAYERS MUST BE EITHER CHECKED IN, OR REMOVED FROM THE COMPETITION BEFORE YOU CAN CHECKOUT.

NEXT STEP IS TO CHECKOUT - SO WE HEAD BACK TO THE 3 LINES AT THE TOP, AND THIS TIME WE CLICK CHECKOUT.  THIS WILL SHOW A LIST OF PLAYERS REMOVED, AND PLAYERS CHECKED IN.  IF YOU HAVE ANOTHER LIST THAT SAYS "NOT CHECKED IN", YOU WILL NEED TO GO BACK TO THE CHECKIN PAGE AND EITHER CHECK THE PLAYER IN OR REMOVE THEIR ENTRY TO THE COMPETITION.

STARTING THE VOLT

PLEASE NOTE - THE BELOW PICTURES ARE FOR VISUAL PURPOSES ONLY

ONCE YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY CHECK OUT, YOU WILL BE TAKEN TO THE BELOW SCREEN.  PLEASE DO NOT BEGIN THE TOURNAMENT UNTIL YOU HAVE DONE THE NEXT STEPS UNDER THE IMAGE BELOW, AND PLEASE DO NOT SELECT THE CREATE YOUR GROUPS OPTION.

STEP 1 IS TO SETUP YOUR BOARDS.

SELECT THIS OPTION AND THEN CLICK THE GREEN ASSIGN BUTTON FOR ALL THE BOARDS YOU WILL BE USING.

NOW CLICK BACK ON YOUR BROWSER AND REFRESH THE PAGE, OR GO BACK TO THE TOURNAMENT HOMEPAGE TO DISPLAY THE ABOVE BOX.

STEP 2 IS THE TOURNAMENT AUTOMATION.

IF YOU HAVE 16 OR MORE PLAYERS, DO 4 GROUPS, 2 PLAYERS ADVANCING, AND THE BOTTOM BOX FOR KNOCKOUT FORMAT MUST BE 5 LEGS.

IF YOU HAVE 15 PLAYERS, DO 4 GROUPS, 2 PLAYERS ADVANCING, AND THE BOTTOM BOX FOR KNOCKOUT FORMAT MUST BE 5 LEGS.

IF YOU HAVE 8-14 PLAYERS, DO 2 GROUPS, 4 PLAYERS ADVANCING, AND THE BOTTOM BOX FOR KNOCKOUT FORMAT MUST BE 5 LEGS.

IF YOU HAVE 5-7 PLAYERS, DO 1 GROUP, 4 PLAYERS ADVANCING, AND THE BOTTOM BOX FOR KNOCKOUT FORMAT MUST BE 5 LEGS.

PLEASE DOUBLE CHECK AND MAKE SURE EVERYTHING ABOVE IS CORRECT.  ONCE CONFIRMED, YOU MAY CLICK THE BEGIN TOURNAMENT BUTTON.  THIS WILL CREATE YOUR GROUPS, AND LOAD THE FIRST GAMES ONTO THE TABLETS.

OTHER HELPFUL INFO

ONCE THE COMPETITION HAS STARTED, THE TOURNAMENT WILL RUN ITSELF RIGHT THROUGH TO THE END OF THE KNOCKOUTS.  IF ONE OF YOUR GROUPS HAS FALLEN A LITTLE BEHIND AND YOU WANT TO MOVE SOME GAMES FROM ANOTHER GROUP TO ANOTHER BOARD, YOU CAN DO BY GOING INTO THE ADMIN PANEL (3 LINES), AND SELECT BOARDS.  YOU CAN THEN GO DOWN TO THE BOARD YOU WISH TO MOVE A GAME ON TO, CLICK REASSIGN, AND THEN YOU WILL BE ABLE TO CLICK THE DROPDOWN BOX FOR THAT BOARD, AND SELECT THE GAME YOU WISH TO MOVE.  THIS WILL AUTOMATICALLY CHANGE IT ON YOUR TABLET ASWELL.

IF, FOR ANY REASON WHEN THE GROUPS FINISH, YOU FIND THE MATCHES FOR THE KO ARE STILL BEST OF 3, YOU CAN GO INTO THE ADMIN PANEL AND SELECT THE MATCHES OPTION.  YOU WILL THEN SEE A DROPDOWN WHERE YOU CAN SELECT THE ROUND TO CHANGE, AND UPDATE IT TO BEST OF 5.  YOU WILL NEED TO REPEAT THIS STEP FOR THE QUARTERS, SEMIS, AND FINAL - OTHERWISE IT WILL ONLY CHANGE TO 5 FOR THE ONES YOU HAVE ASKED DARTSATLAS TO CHANGE.

ANY GROUP THAT HAS 3 PLAYERS CAN BE CHANGED TO BEST OF 5 BY GOING INTO THE ADMIN MENU - GROUPS, AND THEN CLICK MANAGE GROUPS ON THE ONE THAT HAS 3 PLAYERS AND CHANGE IT TO BEST OF 5 AT THE BOTTOM.  MAKE SURE THE PLAY ALL LEGS BOX IS NOT CHECKED.  GROUPS OF 4+ PLAYERS MUST BE BEST OF 3.

IF A CHALKER ENTERS AN INCORRECT SCORE ON THE TABLET, THEY CAN EITHER PRESS THE SCORE ON THE SCREEN, WHICH WILL ALOW YOU TO CHANGE IT, OR YOU CAN CLICK THE MENU BUTTON ABOVE THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE KEYPAD - AND UNDO LAST THROW.  IF USING THE FIRST OPTION, THIS NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED BEFORE THE PLAYERS NEXT SCORE IS ENTERED.

IF A PLAYER NEEDS TO LEAVE FOR ANY REASON AND HAS NOT PLAYED ALL THEIR GAMES, YOU CAN GO INTO THE ADMIN PANEL - SELECT GROUPS - AND THEN MANAGE GROUPS.  YOU WILL THEN HAVE AN OPTION TO RESET A MATCH OR FORFEIT ANY THAT HAVENT BEEN PLAYED.  CLICK RESET (PLEASE ALLOW 5/10 SECONDS FOR IT TO REGISTER AND SHOW A POPUP SAYING MATCH RESET).  IF IT DOESN'T SHOW, PLEASE BE WAIT WHILST THE GAME RESETS.  YOU WILL THEN HAVE A FORFEIT OPTION.  IF YOU CLICK FORFEIT ON THE PLAYER WHO HAS LEFT - THIS WILL AUTOMATICALLY GIVE THE OTHER PLAYER THE WIN.

WITH THE ABOVE, IF A PLAYER DOESNT COMPLETE ALL GROUP GAMES, THE FAIREST WAY WOULD BE TO RESET ALL THEIR GAMES, AND THEN FORFEIT THEM ALL, SO OTHER PLAYERS IN THE GROUP ARE NOT AT A DISADVANTAGE.
