Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
How do I reset the timer?
When it is stopped, double tap the timer and it will reset to the currently set period time.
What happens if I take a call (or go to any other application)?
If the timer is running, when you return to the application, the timer is running just as if you never left it with elapsed time accounted for. If it was stopped, it’s ready to restart where it left off.
How do I set the penalty times?
Go to the Configure Timing tab and the right hand side of the screen allows you to select the settings of the four penalty presets and control what sounds are played to warn you of the end of the penalty.

What is the “separate penalty stop” option ?
If you need to stop the penalty clock separately from the main clock, set this option in the Penalty Times Configuration to On and when the main clock is running you will have two options, “Stop All” and “Stop Penalties” to allow for a running time clock with a stop clock on penalties.
How do I load a team from the web into the application?
The teams can be loaded from a simple XML format using team, player and coach as the tags. As an example, look to http://www.lavin-apps.com/celtics.xml for an example.
Hit the “Load Team” button and then type in the proper URL and you should quickly see your loading team.
How do get a roster from someone else?
Simply ask them to “Share Team” when you are within BlueTooth range of each other and then you press “Receive Team”. In a few moments, you will have the team they currently have selected on your list.
If you want them to share more than one team, after you have gotten the first one, have them scroll to the next one and you hit “Receive Team” again and you get the next one.
If you get the wrong team, or the same one twice, just “Delete Team” to get rid of it.
Once they are finished sharing, all they have to do is press “Unshare Team” and they no longer are sharing.
Multiple people can be receiving rosters at the same time from a single shared source.
What is with LeagueAthletics.com?
The people at LeagueAthletics.com contacted me based upon a contact they received from a mutual customer and pointed me to the API they provide for accessing the information from sites they host.
I felt that this was a good enhancement as getting new rosters (especially the opposing team) can be tedious.
So now, if your team or opponent host using LeagueAthletics.com and have the roster function turned on, you can quickly and easily load the rosters.
I am actively looking at using their interface to allow loading of statistics from the app into the site as well.
How do I edit/delete an incorrectly input statistic/penalty?
To delete an entry, swipe your finger left to right over the wrong one and you will see a Delete button appear. Tap that and the entry is deleted. Tap anywhere else to cancel the delete.
To edit an entry, tap it to bring up the editing panel. Hit Reset to cancel any in progress edits and tap outside of the panel to return to the regular app (accepting any changes you have made).
How do I get rid of those expired penalties?
Double tap them.
Why is a particular player not showing up in the selection lists or report?
Make sure that they are marked as Active (this feature is to allow you to mark players not there that day as inactive so that they do not show up in the pick lists or report.
Change Active to Yes and you should see them again.
How do I advance the period?
With version 1.4.1 and above, the period should automatically advance when the previous period expires, but if you need to modify the period, double tap the period and it advances.
How do I alter the PDF report?
