How-to guide

Last updated November 11, 2026

Everything you need to run your first event with Tee Signal, from sign-up to the winner screen. Most operators are ready in about 15 minutes.

1. Start your free trial

1. Go to teesignal.app/signup, pick a plan and enter your card. You are not charged during the 7-day trial.
2. Write down your company code, PIN and recovery code. You need the code and PIN to sign in.
3. Sign in any time at teesignal.app/owner.

2. Set up your event

1. After signing in, the New event wizard opens. Answer 5 questions: event name, game (long drive, closest to the pin and more), prize, look and a host PIN.
2. Press Go live. Use Rehearsal first if you want to practice.
3. Optional: in Setup add your logo, colors, sponsors, your own waiver and crowd reaction sounds.

3. Put the board on the TV

1. Plug the TV into your laptop with HDMI and press Windows + P → Extend.
2. On the Host tab press Open TV screen, drag that window onto the TV and click it once. It goes full screen and turns sound on.
3. Keep the host screen on your laptop, tablet or phone.

4. Guests join from their phones

1. Guests scan the QR code on the TV.
2. They enter their name, sign the waiver on their phone and get in line. Nothing to download.
3. The Host tab shows who is up next.

5. Score each swing

• By hand (every plan): type the number and press Record score or Enter. You can also tap the microphone and say it.
• Automatically from GSPro (Mobile and Venue plans): set up Tee Signal Bridge once (step 6). Each shot lands on whoever is up.
• Mistake? Edit scores fixes or voids any swing, with the reason saved.

6. Set up automatic scoring with Tee Signal Bridge

Once per laptop (the Windows laptop that runs GSPro):

1. Download Tee Signal Bridge.
2. Right-click the zip → Extract All. Open the folder and double-click INSTALL.bat.
3. If Windows asks to install Node.js, click Yes (free, one time). A Tee Signal Bridge icon appears on the desktop.

Every event:

1. Go live, then on the Host tab press Copy bridge code in the launch monitor bar.
2. Paste the code into the bridge window and press Connect. Open GSPro: "GSPro shot records" turns green.
3. Switch the bridge from Practice to Live.
4. Test before guests arrive: press Send test shot on the Host tab. Delete it afterwards in Edit scores.

Other golf games (for example Awesome Golf) can use the bridge's screen reader. GSPro is the most exact. If a shot looks wrong, the bridge holds it for review instead of putting it on the TV.

7. Prizes, sponsors and sound

• Prize windows: the first score starts window 1. When it ends, press Lock winner and the winner screen plays on the TV.
• Sponsors: add them in Setup. They appear on the board, in the ticker and in full-screen spotlights, and you can print a sponsor proof-of-play report.
• Crowd reactions: real crowd sounds play on the TV after each shot. Set the yardages in Setup. Tap the TV once at the start so the browser allows sound.

8. Finish the event

1. Report tab → Finish event. The TV shows a results QR code.
2. Download guests, signed waivers and marketing opt-ins, and copy the client summary.
3. Send results: email everyone at once, or send each guest their personal link.

If something goes wrong

• Bad Wi-Fi: keep scoring. It saves on your device and syncs when the connection returns. A phone hotspot makes a good backup.
• Bridge not connecting: copy a new bridge code and paste it again.
• Forgot your PIN: use your recovery code at teesignal.app/reset.
• Need help? Email hello@teesignal.app.

In the app, the Help and quick start button on the Host and Setup tabs has these steps too.
