Microgate HiSettings vs camberas

HiSettings is a Microgate App that allows configuration via Bluetooth connection of all devices in the HiFamily such as HiLink radios, HiSens photocells, the HiClock start light and the LinkPod Radio hub. Changes can apply to individual devices or groups of devices (e.g. frequency change or GroupID) HiLink - radios As far as HiLink radios are concerned, for the radio parameters it is possible to change the Frequency and GroupID, for the operating parameters it is possible to define the type of use (radio, receiver, timer, ...), the logical meaning of the signals received on the ports (Start, Stop, Lap1...), whether or not to enable HiSmart reception (and with what reception distance). Finally, it can be defined whether the device should be GPS synchronized or not (in single mode or with continuous synchronization). HiSens - photocell This device is not equipped with a display, so, besides using the ReiPro and RTPro stopwatches, the HiSettings App is the only alternative for configuration. In addition to the parameters described above, the photocell configuration can be used to set the operating mode (single or opposed TX or RX), dead time and special sensitivity options. HiClock - start traffic light For the start traffic light, it is possible to choose the operating mode (Countdown or Display), the parameters of the connection to the device (Bluetooth or WiFi), the type of sequence, the display mode, the possibility or not of displaying the time of day and the colours of the lettering. In command mode, it is also possible to control the display board directly from a mobile phone, activating or interrupting a sequence and to control other useful functions. LinkPod Radio - HUB radio This device, which allows pulses to be transmitted from up to 12 separate lines, can be programmed by changing the frequency and ID, the type of each line, and GPS synchronization modes.

Camberas Track is the safety app for anyone taking part in mountain races, trail running events, hiking marches and MTB rides. When you are out on the mountain, the organisation cannot see you. Hundreds of participants are spread over tens of kilometres of trails, often with no phone coverage. If you fall, get lost or simply fall behind, nobody knows where you are. Camberas Track solves that: while you have it switched on, your position reaches the race safety team. And if you need help, the SOS button sends your exact coordinates — just press and hold for two seconds. WHAT IT DOES • The organisation sees you on the map, from the first to the last kilometre. • SOS button: press and hold for 2 seconds and the safety team receives your exact position. Afterwards you can tell them what happened — a fall, a mechanical, that you got lost — or cancel it if it was a false alarm. • Your family and friends follow you live on the event's public map. • You see the race route and the track you have covered. • On group rides, you also see your team mates on the map. IT WORKS WITHOUT COVERAGE In the mountains the signal drops constantly. The app stores every position on your phone and uploads them as soon as coverage returns: not a single section of your route is lost, even after an hour with no signal. It works with the screen off and the phone in your backpack, which is how people really run. It uses around 4% of battery per hour. NO ACCOUNTS, NO PERSONAL DATA There is no sign-up, no password, no email address. The organisation gives you a QR code with your bib number: you scan it and that is it. The app only knows your bib number and your position during the event. Your position is shared only while you have tracking switched on. Opening the app does not start anything. And when the event is over, tracking stops on its own. HOW TO USE IT 1. The organisation gives you the QR code for your bib. 2. Scan it with the app: your phone is linked to that bib. 3. Before the start, tap ACTIVATE TRACKING. 4. Run. Put the phone away, turn off the screen and forget about it. 5. When you finish, swipe to stop (or let it stop on its own). FOR RACE ORGANISERS Camberas Track is part of the Camberas platform, with registrations, timing and live GPS tracking. If you organise an event and want to offer tracking to your participants, write to us at info@camberas.com. IMPORTANT NOTICE The SOS button alerts your race's safety team, not the public emergency services. In a serious emergency, always call the emergency number (112 in Spain).
