i DONT KNOW IF ANYBODY WILL KNOW ABOUT THIS YET BUT THE NEW UPDATE THAT UNIKON HAS BROUGHT OUT IS TO STOP CLOCKS FROM TIMING IN DOOS BEFORE THEY ARRIVE :-/ ::) ::)  ( YES YOU READ IT RIGHT AS I KNOW OF AT LEAST 3 PEOPLE IT HAS HAPPENED TO TONIGHT AS 1 OF OUR MEMBERS DROPPED HIS CLOCK INTO HIS BASE STATION AFTER HE CAME BACK FROM MARKING AND IT TIMED IN AND GAVE CLOCKING IN TIMES FOR ALL THE 56 DOOS HE SENT TO THE RACE TONIGHT :( :(  AFTER SEEING THIS HE PHONED DOUGIE BALD AND WAS TOLD THAT HE WAS'NT THE 1ST TO CALL DOUGIE TONIGHT ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM AND THIS IS WHAT THE NEW UPDATE IS TO CORRECT!!!

 

SO THE WHOLE POINT OF MY POST HERE IS TO GET EVERYONE WHO IS USING UNIKON ETS TO MAKE SURE YOU CHECK YOUR CLOCK IN THE BASE STATION EARLY ENOUGH IN THE MORNING SO YOU HAVE A CHANCE OF RECTIFYING THE PROBLEM IN YOUR CLUB BY MAYBE AGREEING TO GET A CLOCK SET AND TIMING THE ETS RING INTO THE MANUAL CLOCK :-/ :-/

 

I HOPE THIS HELPS SOMEONE BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE AS THIS IS 1 MAJOR F@CK UP BY UNIKON >:( >:( >:( >:(

Yes yer right mate, it happened to my friend last week, he put the clock into the base station and it clocked all his doos in, he took the first 31 in the club, the doos were due home about an hour after that, there was nothing he could have done, i was there to witness it.

 

They reckin its all happened since they donethe updates on the system,

 

The thing about timing into the manual clock is, the ring wont fit in the hole.

THATS THE BOYS ONLY CHANCE TO GET A TIMER DOUGIE SO AS PRESIDENT I'VE GAVE THE GO AHEAD FOR HIM TO DO IT JUST NOW AND WE'LL WORRY ABOUT WHAT HAPPENS TO HIM AFTER THE RACE MATE AS I THINK I HAVE TO GIVE HIM THE CHANCE OF TIMING IN FROM THE RACE AS IT IS NOT HIS FAULT AS TO WHAT HAS HAPPENED WITH HIS ETS CLOCK ;)

Well its good that you have gave him the go ahead to do that, i will check mines first light.

 

Hopefully it dosent effect the guys any more that are using the system.

Is this problem a result of the software upgrade or the clock firmware upgrade?

We upgraded our unikon profi to v3.0 but didn't take the the club system software upgrade as we manage our clocks with FSS from eastcoast software and was told by Eastcoast software that we didn't need the club system upgrade.

Why can't unikon keep all who use thier systems informed of any impending upgrades? :-/

If I hadn't seen it on here I wouldn't have known which makes you wonder how many clubs don't know anything about this upgrade ??)

Posted
which update are you referring to?

 

IT MUST BE THE 1 THAT CAME OUT A COUPLE OF WEEKS BEFORE RACING AS THATS THE ONLY TIME WE HAVE UPDATED OUR CLOCKS THIS YEAR BUT UNIKON HAVE BROUGHT OUT A NEW UPDATE IN THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS TO SORT OUT THE PROBLEMS WITH IT :-/ ::) ::)

Alf i know Unikon like the back of my hand and ive handled everyones in Bristol without any problem at all. I have upgraded our club unit and the NFC unit with no problems. I just cant get my head around this one, ask Ray as he is very helpful and he doesnt hide under any stones like the other buggers.

if you dont update your clock and others do when you go to the national i dont think they will be compatable

i think your clock will automaticaly update when you put it into the national base station

likewise if you go to another club to mark

 

it happened a couple of years ago when national marking

all non updated clocks had to be updated in the national base before they could race mark

if you dont update the first time ur clock is put into an updated base station it will update, IE, marking at fed or national, also if someone has an updated clock and puts it into a base station which is not updated it will update the base station,

WHY DOES EVERYONE NOT EMAIL UNIKON TO COMPLAIN AS THIS IS PROBABLY THE ONLY

WAY THEY MIGHT LISTEN TO THE FANCIERS

IF THE PROGRAMME WAS NOT COMPLETE THE UPDATE SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN RELEASED

I emailed them direct 2 weeks ago, and never even got an acknowledgement :-/ however, I do have to say that after investigating the problem our club had 2 weeks ago, it was down to "user error" :-/
