SUBMITTING THE TDTR XML FILE • The TDTR XML FILE must be submitted before the TD submits his

online TD Report. • After all the data is entered in the software:

- TDTR may be saved as PDF and printed/signed for result packets- TDTR may be viewed and/or saved as XML

• TDTR is attached to an email and sent to alpineresults@fisski.com • Errors? Corrections can be made and the XML can be resent • If the TDTR Software is not used, a paper copy of the TDTR must

be completed, signed and submitted to FIS. • FIS is attempting to create a “paper-free” environment. Your cooperation is appreciated!

42

WHAT ABOUT NON-FIS EVENTS?• A TDTR is required for all USSA scored non-FIS events

• A TDTR is required for all USSA non-scored Championship events, e.g. YSL, U10, U12 Junior Championships, Masters Championships, etc.

• Either the original paper copy TDTR or the FIS TDTR software can be used to produce a paper copy report, as required, for USSA non-FIS events.

• If the FIS TDTR software is used, the PDF report will need to be edited to include the USSA race letter code as the program only allows for four numbers. e.g. U1234

• The TDTR XML file must not be submitted USSA’s autoscoring system as USSA is not currently set up to accept the TDTR XML file

• The TDTR for a non-FIS event must never be submitted to FIS!

43

Thank You For Your Attention!

This is an upgraded presentation. It has taken advantage of the work done by many Alpine Officials and we are grateful for their contributions.

The intention was to build a vehicle that can be used for explaining the intricacies of the TDTR as well as for updating Timing Guys and bright Technical Delegates.

Thank you Allen Church for your many years of service to the USSA and the FIS Alpine Officials’ community; you have been a valuable mentor and a valued friend!
