I have a technical problem here. I am not very good with pairs scorer algorithms. Assuming I get the terminology right, I need to set up a double howell movement for about 24 tables, 2 sets of 12. A double mitchell movement might work as well. The algorithm is explicitly as follows.

n=24 tables in all.

Two howell cycles, code word "Green" and "Blue" for example. Each cycle will contain n/2=12 tables. There are supposed to be two identical movements happening at the same time. There will be two sets of identically duplicated boards. In the end they will be scored together. I hope everyone understands my pseudocode here, really not very good with computers yet.

How to set up the Pairs Scorer to moniter such a movement?

Also, please correct my technical terms.

Many thanks (: Under extreme pressure. The biggest event that I am taking charge so far. (This shows how little of the world I have seen but yeah :P) Thanks guys.

If "Pairs Scorer" means Jeff Smith's PairsScorer then

Create event
Event Details: Section = Blue, etc.
Movement: tables = 12, choose a 12 table movement
Exit
Create event
Event Details: Section = Green
Movement: as above
Exit
Select last two event (the Blue and Green sections): combine sections
Select last event (the combined event): retreive event

Actually, I was just playing with my Pairs Scorer. On second thought, would a Web Mitchell serve the same purpose in a simplified way?

Thank you Sir. I get the rough idea and just tried it out. Worked beautifully. Haha.

If the question is "How to play a single session with 24 tables?" then a Web Mitchell is certainly an answer.
