+- When you have time, in the row(s) that appeared above the buttons select the skater(s) that is/are being timed.
- Skaters that have an unserved penalty marked will be highlighted in light blue. Skaters that are already in the box are highlighted in red.
+- When you started multiple penalties they will be in order with the first one started at the top.
- Once a skater is selected, the penalty row will be moved into the top group, sorted by time remaining in the penalty.
-- If multiple skaters are sitting down in quick succession it is recommended to start all the clocks first before then assigning them.
Variant B
This variant is preferrable when a single skater approaches and you know who it is.

Penalties issued in the box
Note: You can also use this procedure to add penalties issued outside of the box if the PT did not enter them. It is however recommended to leave these to the PT in order to avoid entering the same penalty twice.

Enable Replace on Undo. Without Replace pressing the wrong one of the clock controls is a huge pressure situation as every second you don't fix it the clocks run further away and you will have to fix them manually, if that is possible at all. Plus you may have messed up other data, e.g created another jam, which will take more effort to clean up. With Replace you have the time to first think for a moment what just happened and what you can do to fix it and then fix it completely with two clicks/button presses.
Disable Auto-End Jam. Simply reacting to the jam ending whistles when they happen takes less effort than checking the jam duration first. And if Jams are not called off on time (Jam Timers are human), your lineups will still last 30s from the end of the jam instead of being shortened (or requiring the jam timer to ignore the publicly visible lineup clock).

And if Jams are not called off on time (Jam Timers are human), your lineups will still last 30s from the end of the jam instead of being shortened (or requiring the jam timer to ignore the publicly visible lineup clock). When using CRG to time penalties, in case of a late call-off Auto-End Jam would also cause penalty clocks to stop early and thus skaters being released too late.
(The setting is enabled by default in CRG 4.x and 5.x/2023.x because it has been this way for a very long time and there are a substantial number of people out there that have trained themselves to explicitly rely on it. The default changed in CRG 2025.)
Delete old games from time to time. Each game will increase the size of the internal data notably which will eventually lead to performance impacts if the data grows too large. Note that deleting a game from the internal list does not delete any exported statsbooks or data files from the game (and there is no need to clean up those).
