This is a good info in the relationship between Aktiv and fide elo.

I just finished running a 2-game match in a 9-round swiss tournament, and DanaSahZ losses 4 games on time, I use Arena 3.5 with "Restart engines after each game" disabled (I will enable this next time). Unfortunately this setting contributed to the time forfeit of DanaSahZ. Since there are 2-game match, once DanaSahZ losses on time in the first game, it will also loss the second game. Perhaps Arena is not able to start the engine that crashed, and paired it again on the next game of a 2-game match. See the pgn games below. [Round "1.6.1"], means round 1, pair 6, game 1. And [Round "1.6.2"] means the game 2.

For testing with DanaSahZ, I used WinboardZ and I never had problems with lost in time, although most games were played with increment.

I've also tried Arena 2.01 and also seems to play well and not lost in time, even with harder time controls that 40/3 as 40/1.

However when I tried Arena 3.5, then the engine lost in time. I think there may be something wrong with the time in the new versions. One reason why he lost in time is that the engine does not check the time until it has reached at least 3 ply. Maybe I can try to change this, but still I think there is something different.

But also I think there is another problem with Arena if the same engine has to play another game.

In the log you can see that the engine lost in time, but still responds to commands from the GUI and the ping command, a new game is started, it looks like Arena gets a move of the Perfect book, but this move seems to be is not sent to the second engine. I think this happens not only with DanaSahZ, also with other engines.

One reason why he lost in time is that the engine does not check the time until it has reached at least 3 ply. Maybe I can try to change this, but still I think there is something different.

You better revise this as your engine is playing also at lower elo level.

But also I think there is another problem with Arena if the same engine has to play another game.

I did not enable the restart engine after a game option because I am usually running a single match in x number of swiss rounds, which arena 3.5 would quit the 2 engine after their match is completed. It only happened in that tournament that I use 2 game match at 9 swiss rounds.

When I run the tournament, DanaSahZ is not using an arena book, but its own book.
Of all those engines in the tournament, only DanaSahZ and SlowChess got time forfeits.

The engine plays at a lower level where you choose elo_type as human, but if you put elo_type as engine I'm sure then play harder and certainly could be in the middle of your list. Looks like I complicate settings by offering three different types of opponents.

For example I have here a game played against a machine in 1009 elo and elo_type computer, you see that even playing weak engine can still win. Perhaps in computer and human mode engine need more time and play better around 30 seconds per move.

I also did run the engine with his own book, who was playing with a borrowed book was the other engine (Toledo).

I will try to make a version that does not lose in Arena 3.5.

I finally found that the engine lost in time about 1 in 10 games, in both, on Arena 2.01 and Arena 3.5. Thanks to Ferdinand for reporting the problem.

I modified the safety margin of time limit for a move. If you're having problems I can easily extend that margin. I've played 50 games without loss in time.

https://sites.google.com/site/danasah/danaz-UCI.zip (danaz04b)

I made regulation wiht bitbases 4 pieces, this does not mean that the engine plays perfect with 4 pieces, but I'm not sure that without them the engine sometimes fails to give a simple mate of rook and king against king. For this reason I recommend leaving them active.
