Sky-Fi Wireless Adapter (WA-1)
The Sky-Fi wireless adapter is easy to set up and requires no user intervention once set up.
One adapter will be connected to your CTS timer (System 6, for example), laptop running
Synchronized Swimming meet management software (SynchroMM) or Pace Clock Controller
(UPC-C). It will transmit scoreboard data (which includes shot clock data) to CTS wireless pace
clocks/shot clocks or to another wireless adapter that is connected to a CTS LED numeric
scoreboard, or to the DisplayLink computer for a video or matrix board.

Setting the Switches for Specific Applications

The configuration switches are labeled CONFIG. With the power off, set switches 1 and 2
according to what you want the wireless adapter to do:
Connected to
CTS timer, laptop, or
Pace Clock Controller
LED Scoreboard, Pace
Clock or Shot Clock
DisplayLink computer
LED numeric scoreboard
without RS485 jacks

Setting the Channel

The wireless adapter connected to your sending device must be set to the same wireless channel
as the receiving device (which can be a wireless pace clock/shot clock, a wireless scoreboard, or
another wireless adapter).

Using Multiple Wireless Adapters on Different Channels

If you are sending different data from two or more timers to separate scoreboards (for example, a
water polo tournament with multiple games going on at once or a swim meet with multiple
courses), choose channels that are as far apart as possible, and at least two apart.
