Display and print the target.
This screen allows you to visually inspect the target you have selected. The target also displays information that links the target to the shooter or his nickname, the date and other elements. Of these, the following are particularly important:
-QR code
-hits table
-target scale
Of these, the printed QR code is important for the operation of the app during competitions. This is printed in 4 places to minimize the risk of it being damaged by the shot. The QR code contains some information that is needed when performing the discipline in the announced competitions. A competitor who has entered a competition discipline in which one of the paper targets is defined must print out this target from the discipline description. He cannot print it from the archive of system targets. When printing a target from a discipline, the data from the competition discipline is entered into a QR code and this QR code is unique to that discipline and to the user. The target printed from the discipline must be photographed and attached to the electronic target record if it is used in the competition after shooting. The competition discipline cannot be completed without the attached photograph. From this photo, the application will evaluate from the QR code whether it is the correct target for this user and the specific competition discipline. Only one such target can be used for a competition discipline and once registered, the user is no longer able to "unregister" this target and register another one.
The hits table is only for the shooter to be able to manually write down the hits in the target. Once the hits have been entered into the electronic target, the application handles this evaluation by itself.
Target scale. It is important when printing the target. In the case of target printing, it is extremely important to print the target in a size that exactly matches the measurements entered in the target entry process. Some printers will print the target exactly to the dimensions you specify. However, other printers print slightly differently. But even this slight variation cannot be accepted, so the application offers the possibility to adjust the size of the target during printing so that the resulting printout matches exactly what is specified when defining the target. To do this, a so-called correction coefficient is introduced.
Target print correction coefficient.
The application finds it simply by comparing the value of the diameter of the largest circle that was specified in the target definition process with the value that is measured on the printout after the first printing of this target. Using the coefficient thus obtained, the application adjusts the dimensions of the target only when printing so that the resulting printout corresponds dimensionally exactly to the target specified in the system. Thus, after the first printing of each paper target, the user measures the diameter of the largest circle on the scale at the bottom as accurately as possible and enters this value in the bottom row of the table that appears before the actual target printing process. When the target is first printed, the diameter values of the largest circle of the target (both the entered circle and the printed circle) are equal and the coefficient is equal to one. When a real diameter value that differs from the specified value is entered, the application calculates the coefficient and modifies the target print file. Of course, it is also necessary to check the second already adjusted printout and, if necessary, it can be further slightly adjusted so that finally the diameter of the printed circle corresponds exactly to the value indicated on the bottom scale of the target and thus to the value that is entered in the Shootap application. After this, the application remembers the last correct coefficient value. This means that the next time this target is printed, these adjustments will no longer be necessary even though the prepared table for entering the target diameter will be displayed. It will contain the correct data for the correct dimension of the printed target. This action when printing a target is extremely important and needs to be done by the shooter. The correction coefficient calculated in this way is remembered by the application and unless you connect another printer to the computer, the correction coefficient does not need to be changed. It will be valid and will ensure that the dimensions of the electronic and paper printed target match.
Target name: TAR/180/5
Some printers may distort the target size when printing. To achieve correct dimensions, set 100% scale in printer settings and disable margins. If the target still isn’t the correct size, use the field below to calculate the correction coefficient, which will automatically adjust dimensions for accurate printing. 🎯 The default neutral coefficient value is 1, which equals 100% size.
