How to Scan an entrant in

Once the Event Organiser has given you access as a Scanning user, Checkpoint Manager, or Event Manager, you will receive either one or two emails. 

If you do not have a RaceNation account you will receive an email "RaceNation Registration - Claim Account Here", just click Accept Invitation and then enter your email address and create a password.

You will also (or only) receive an email titled "Invitation to Event Control ...." inviting you to manage the event, just click on Access Event Control and log in. When you accept the invitation just login to the Checkpoint Control Platform.

For future logins you can use this https://race-nation.co.uk/ to access the Checkpoint Control Platform click the green 'Scanning' button. Please note, this button will only appear for events that you have a User level assigned to you.

When you are on the checkpoint on the Checkpoint Control Platform click on the blue Scan button for your primary checkpoint or click on View All Checkpoints if you need to scan at a different one. 

You will the be presented with the option to scan with either the Race Entry ID or the Race Number. The majority of entrants will be providing their Race Number. 
Click into the relevant box to start scanning.
Once you type (then press Submit Scan)/scan a correct number into either options the entrants will appear as Green in the list below if it is successful.
They will appear as Amber if they are a duplicate.
They will appear as Red in a pop up message if it is an incorrect number.

Repeat these actions until the Checkpoint is closed.
