Configuring A/S Settings for Conqueror

When you first install the Automatic Scoring edition of the program, you’ll need to make sure the appropriate Conqueror computer is visible to the program and set up the import and export directories. Here’s how to get everything set up:

Setting Up Automatic Scoring:

  1. Start QubicaAMF Conqueror:
    • Go to the Front Desk computer and start QubicaAMF Conqueror.
    • Navigate to Setup > Center Setup > System and make a note of the "BLS and BTM File Export Path" setting.
  2. Open the CDE Software Program:
    • Launch the CDE Software program.
    • Go to Options > Automatic Scoring Setup and click on Scoring.
  3. Unlock the Screen:
    • Click the LOCK icon on the toolbar to unlock the screen. Enter the password CDESOFTWARE (this prevents accidental changes).
  4. Configure the Export and Import Directories:
    • In the #2 "Export Directory" field, enter the path you noted in Step 1. While uppercase/lowercase letters don’t matter, make sure everything else matches exactly.
    • In the #3 "Import Directory" field, enter the same path from Step 1. Again, make sure everything matches exactly.
  5. Set Up the Scoring Directory:
    • For the #4 "Scoring Directory"setting, you might need to try a few different configurations depending on how your Conqueror system is set up. Here are some examples:
      • Use the path from Step 1, but leave off the \SECY part.
      • Use the computer name or IP address from Step 1 and add \QDESK (e.g., \\192.168.1.1\QDESK).
      • You can also try the above without QDESK (e.g., \\192.168.1.1\).
      • Use C:\.
      • Use \\QSERVER\QDESK.
      • Use \\FRONTDESK1\QDESK or \\FRONTDESK\QDESK.
      • If the front desk computer was renamed from QubicaAMF’s standard setup, you’ll need to use that custom computer name.
  6. Set the Scoring Revision:
    • In the #5 "Scoring Revision"setting, choose the appropriate number:
      • Conqueror X: Set to the latest revision number.
      • Conqueror Pro version 3 or higher: Set to 4.
      • Conqueror version 2.06 or higher: Set to 4.
      • Conqueror versions less than 2.06: Set to 3.
  7. Save Your Settings:
    • Click OK to save your settings.
And that’s it! Your Automatic Scoring should now be set up correctly.
