You can score a game directly on the field after the game is completed by pointing your camera on your smartphone at a QR Code printed on the game card. Here’s how.
1) Generate your game cards as you normally would. When you select 3 up or 1 up, a checkbox will appear to the right of the drop down menu. Check that to create a QR Code specific to the game. As this is a bit of an data-intensive project, you should limit number of game cards made in a single batch. Filter by date and/or venue for the best results. Regardless, you should wait until all the QR Codes build on the game cards before attempting to print them or make PDFs of the game cards.
2) The Game Cards will print with the QR Code like below. They are designed to be used without needing a login password, so make sure you secure them as you would your game cards. (They will expire once used, however, and you can lock out all users from your admin)
3) Use your smart phone’s camera or a QR Code app to read the QR Code. A score entry screen will display. Enter the score, verify it and update the game. (If either score is greater than 20, the HQ will need to enter the score.)
4) You will only be able to score once using the QR Code. After you enter the score, the QR Code will be expired.
Also, if the HQ has already entered a score for the game, the QR Code will be expired. If you enter an incorrect score, you will not be able to make a correction from the field using the QR Code, so be sure to verify the score is correct.
5) If you feel the QR Codes have been compromised or you don’t wish for them to be used, you may turn them off globally from the Website Maint Module>Variables>GO! Locking scores entry will also lock the QR Codes, regardless of the lock state on QR Codes.
