User Manual
TOP-8
3462.511.02
Version 3.2
The TOP-8 program is intended for the timing
of Track & Field and swimming competitions.
The [lane mode] program allows to measure
times of up to 8 lanes, where each judge,
through a pushbutton, is responsible for the
time of a lane; this mode is used, for example,
for competitions such as a 100m.
The [non lane mode] is intended for use with
one pushbutton, and a single judge measures
the time of competitors crossing the finish line;
as an example, we will use this mode for a
marathon or a 1500m.
This manual is a complement of the general
manual 3462.501. Please, read
the latter first; most of the functions of the
[Initialization] menu are described there. This
manual only describes the specific issues of
the TOP-8 program.

received, the time starts to run on the screen

once the arming time assigned is elapsed, the
"X" is replaced by a "-", meaning that the lanes
are armed and ready to accept a finish time.
If a numeric key (1 to 8) is pressed once the
race has started, the cursor moves to this

If a numeric key (0) is pressed once the race
has started, all lanes will be disarmed.
If a numeric key (9) is pressed once the race
has started, all lanes will be rearmed and all
previous times will be flushed.
