Com Ports

tomassc43Member

Hi Everyone,
This is my question, i score speedskating Olympic Style racing meets with a great excel spreadsheet. What i want to do is to have the start sensor trigger the built in timer in excel via my usb com port and also to have the photo cell trigger the lap times through another usb com port. Does anyone know of the code for achieving this or someone you can recommend to knowing how to write the code. Any information would be appreciated.

I had a similar task but was convinced that using the internal clock of the PC is not recommended if you really want to be called a timer. My work around: I bought a second hand Chronoprinter of Ebay and connected the sensor to the CP. The latter was connected to the PC via RS232. By using a software from VOLA (no license required when using CP from TagHeuer) I had the times in Excel and could use it for my purposes.
Meanwhile I am with actice transponders.
