  • Page 16: (4.1) Counter Operation

    (4) Operation Counter Operation Dongles To release a target using the BRB Wired Counter a Dongle must be inserted into the counter socket. If the Dongle is set to Count Up Mode, then the shooter may release 10,000 individual targets before the count will need to be reset. If the Dongle is set to Count Down Mode then then the club will program the required number of individual targets into the Dongle using the clubhouse Console.

A target can be released in any way that the TX-101 Transmitter has been set up. Payment When the shooter has finished, the Dongle is removed from the Counter.
