Thank you for purchasing a Colorado Time Systems QuickStart Pro.
Your QuickStart Pro features 15 training modes.
This introductory section describes physical features of your
QuickStart Pro.
This section, beginning on page 7, describes the training modes, in-
cluding what the mode does and which other devices are needed for
the mode.
Most of the various training modes require input from one or more
of the following: touchpads, relay platform, pushbutton or start sys-
tem. Plug the device(s) providing the input into the proper connec-
tor(s) on the side panel.
Most input connections are self-explanatory.
For all input connectors, a pushbutton operated by a human judge
may be connected to provide input; however, some precision in tim-
ing will be lost. The QuickStart Pro records to a hundredth of a sec-
ond, but a human with a pushbutton can't come close to that level of
accuracy!
There are two touchpad inputs to allow for touchpad input from both
ends of the pool. The two touchpad inputs are connected internally.

They are equivalent, and it makes no difference which one is used.
To take input from touchpads at both ends of the pool, plug the
touchpad from one end of the pool into either touchpad input on the
QuickStart Pro. Plug the touchpad from the other end into the other
