THEORY OF OPERATION

The Model 6632E Large Display Timer is a
standalone elapsed time (separate start and finish
points) timer and large digital display with an
interconnect cable to connect the Infra-red Sensors
and the hand-held push-button. The display timer
contains an alignment mode to insure alignment
of the sensors to the respective emitters at each
location on the track.
Pressing the push-button resets the display
RaceAmerica Model 6632E Display Timer
and places the display timer into a ready mode.
When the vehicle passes between the start emitter
and start sensor 'breaking' the start beam, the timer
begins to count and displays the elapsed time in
four different formats from seconds and fractions
(ss.fff or sss.ff) to minutes/secons/fractions
(mm:SS.F) and hours/minutes (HR:MM-).
When the vehicle breaks the finish beam, the
timer displays the elapsed time in the configured
format. The timer is accurate to one thousandth
of a second.
The timer will not reset for a run if either of
the sensors are out of alignment.
