  • Page 11: Setup

    TED-TX / RX Page 11 3.1. Set up: The useful distance of the TED system depends on signal strength. You have to spend a reason- able effort to properly mount both the TX and RX units. the position of the TED-TX and TED-RX. Mostly you improve the receiver signal strength by moving the TED-TX and TED-RX to the right position (high signal strength = high impulse or data safety).
  • Page 12: Switching On

    TED-TX / RX Page 12 3.2. Switching on: Normal Mode: - switch device-switch (11) on - TED works in the impulse transmission mode Test-Mode: - press device-key (10) - device-switch (11) to position ON, LED (3) must blink - release device-key (10) - test mode switches automatically off after one minute, manually you can switch it off with device-key (10).
  • Page 13: Address

    TED-TX / RX Page 13 3.4. Address: Code-Switch (9) Address The code-switch (9) to address the TED is located in the switch position = 0 address = 0 bottom and has 16 switch positions. Within a system all switch position = 1 address = 1 TED-TX and TED-RX need the same address.
  • Page 14: Signal Strength Test To Find The Ideal Setup Position

    TED-TX / RX Page 14 3.5. Signal Strength Test to find the ideal Position: Trouble free operation of the TED-system depends on spending time to properly install the TX and Attention: You can only test the signal strength in the impulse transmission mode. How do you start the signal strength test: Turn the TED-TX with device-switch (11) on.
  • Page 15: Interference Test

    TED-TX / RX Page 15 3.6. Interference Test: This mode is designed to allow you to test for interferance from other radios or to determine if data is being transmitted. This can be a handy way to check for problems during an event. The impulses are still being recived as normal.
  • Page 16: Impulse Transmission

    TED-TX / RX Page 16 4. IMPULSE TRANSMISSION The impulse transmission works direct from any ALGE-impulse trigger to ALGE timer by radio. Each impulse transmission through the TED has a constant delay of 0.100 seconds. Minimum error: 0.001 second If you transmit only the start impulse with the TED you must add to each run time 0.1 seconds. If you transmit only the finish impulse with the TED you must subtract from each run time 0.1 seconds.

  • Page 20: Impulse Transmission For More Than Two Timing Channels With Rx-C10

    TED-TX / RX Page 20 4.7. Impulse Transmission for more than two Timing Channels with RX-C10: With the TdC 8000 and Timer S4 you can receive together with the RX-C10 from the TED-RX up to 10 different timing channels. Therefore you need different TED-TX. You can transmit a maximum of two timing channels per TED-TX.
  • Page 21 TED-TX / RX Page 21 e.g.: Timing with 10 timing channels on test slope for skiing: A separate TED-TX is used for each timing channel (all together 10 TED-TX). A Startgate is used for the start. A photocell is used for the intermediate times and the finish. A TdC 8000 is used as timer Connect the RX-C10 at the TdC 8000 (connection "Multi Channel") and TED-RX.

  • Page 25: Data Transmission 0.1 Seconds

    TED-TX / RX Page 25 5.2. Data Transmission 0.1 Seconds: Adjustment: Set code-switch (12) on position 1 Each data transmission of a data string from the TED-TX to the TED-RX happens once. Each data string has a check sum. If the TED-RX receives the data with the correct check sum it output the data.

    TED-TX / RX Page 27 5.3. Data Transmission 2400 Baud: Adjustment: Code-switch (12) from TED-TX and TED-RX on position 3. Each data string must be sent with control characters at the begin and at the end. The control character at the begin turns the transmitter on, the control character at the end turns it off. If you do not send a control character at the end, the transmitter will turn off automatically 10 sec.
  • Page 28: Data Transmission Direct

    TED-TX / RX Page 28 5.5. Data Transmission Direct: Adjustment: Code-switch (12) from TED-TX and TED-RX on position 6. Adapter 119--1 must be connected to TED-TX (short-cut between pin 2 and 3 at DIN socket (7)). Each data string must be sent with 2400 or 4800 Baud. You do not need any control characters. The transmitter (TED-TX) is always on, this means a net device (NLG8) is recommended.
