Electronic Control System

The SI Card is a small device that records the time spent at checkpoints. When inserted in the box, it will emit a sound and each athlete must wait the necessary time to obtain confirmation (beep and/or light.

 

 

In case of failure of the SPORTident system, the athlete must use the pliers presente near each control and punch it on the map, in zones R1, R2 and R3, recording the passage at the control point.

The athletes must start with the SI Card indicated in the start list, otherwise the consequences of participation with SI Card that has not been assigned by the organization are their responsability.

Most of the competition takes place in urban áreas with car trafic, so special care is recommended when crossing public roads.
