Run Single Beam Wireless with Sensors
[OFF] as configured in SENSORS [*2]. Each time
the beam (T-Link 'A') is interrupted, a timer will
stop counting and a new one will start counting.
After each finish/start, the beam is locked out for
two to nine seconds (see *4 CONFIG) to allow
the car to pass through and the dust to clear. A
lap number is assigned to each start on the console
(press/hold [0] to view lap number; press/hold [8]
to view the 'Best' lap).
Each finish freezes the console and sends the
time to the serial ports (PCs and displays).
If a car goes off course and cannot finish;
press 'IGNORE [2] to not count the lap. Use 'All
Stop' [*7] to stop the currently counting timer to
reset for another car.
This mode only operates with 'SENSORS'
OFF ([*2]).
During timing, status conditions can be
checked. RF Integrity and Battery Level status
are available. Alignment status is available on the
'A' T-Link Wireless unit.
