De elite lopers hadden een omloop met een kaartwissel, ik heb die kaartwissel aangemaakt in ocad9 op de manier die getoond woord in de howtos op de website van ocad. Voor de postenbeschrijving en de kaartendruk werkte dit prima. Ook in de uitslag is alles in orde, alleen bij de splittijden gaat er iets mis, je kan enkel de splittijden van het tweede deel zien op splitsbrower.

Kaartwissel vanaf OCAD 9 is "ook nieuw voor HELGA".
-----------------------------------
The answer is valid for all HELGA users - therefore in English.

Problem : when introducing a map change in OCAD 9, an additional start (S2) is created in the control sequences. Helga cannot (yet ) handle this S2

Solution :
In this case, you have to prefer the Export from OCAD with the "Version 8 Text" option (- easier than the XML one)
Open the text file in the notebook and manually remove the "S2;" introduced by OCAD for the second start after the map change

Import the modified sequence into Helga.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Stay tuned on this post. We will improve the Helga importation and give here the information.

as an example :

Before :

;1;0;13.900;0;S1;0.580;112;0.273;97;....;0.222;136;0.104;124;0.002;S2;0.494;69;0.611;....45;0.090;F1

After :

;1;0;13.900;0;S1;0.580;112;0.273;97;....;0.222;136;0.104;124;0.494;69;0.611;....45;0.090;F1

Solution :
In this case, you have to prefer the Export from OCAD with the "Version 8 Text" option (- easier than the XML one) ...

This was not the good instruction . With the XML format, you will have no problem; the second start is fully treated through OCAD 9, and HELGA can import immediately and without problem the exported XML file.

However, with the next release of HELGA (2008/01), the problem is fully overcome, even with an "Version 8 TXT file" from OCAD

Tous les messages antérieurs peuvent être remplacés par ...

La procédure OCAD pour un changement de carte est entièrement décrite dans les HowTo's d'OCAD et HELGA récupère les fichiers XML ou Version8 TXT générés par cette méthode.

The OCAD procedure for a Map Exchangeis fully described in the HowTo's of OCAD and Helga recuperates the generated files (XML or V 8Txt)
