The capabilities of Bridgemates are constantly augmented
by the release of updated versions of software and firmware.
The latest release of Bridgemate software [v3.7.6] and
firmware [v3.1] is now available by download via the Support
section of our website. Recently-added facilities that clubs
may be interested in include:
• specific support for teams and imp-scored events
• the ability to modify and/or add player names at any
stage in an event
• the ability to instigate a TD Call at the Bridgemate.
Calls are reported on the scoring computer, notified
to Directors using the Bridgemate app, and alerted
instantly on TD Pagers
• the Bridgemates may be directed to validate
opening leads at the time that the result is entered.
Using this facility helps to prevent inaccurate
specification of declarer, as well as ensuring that
correct leads are entered.
Bridgemate app users need to register with the EWBA club
[in Pembrokeshire] in order to access today’s results on a
match-by-match basis. The app is available to download
onto both I-phones and Androids.
