ALWAYS CHECK POLARITY OF ANY BATTERY POWERED CELL. POLARITY DOES MATTER AND THE TIMER WILL NOT RECEIVE A
PULSE IF THE POLARITY IS REVERSED. REVERSE IF THE CELL DOES NOT TRIGGER.

TDC 4000/8000 (NET TIMING USING NET TIME (DISPLAY) CABLE)
THIS TIMER CAN ONLY SEND NET TIME DATA FROM ITS SCOREBOARD OUTPUT PORT TO THE SOFTWARE FOR A SINGLE COURSE.
THE SOFTWARE CALCULATES THE HANDICAP AND MEDAL. THE DISPLAY BOARD IS CONNECTED DIRECTLY TO THE TIMER USING A
PST SPLITTER CABLE OR A CABLE CONNECTED TO THE DISPLAY OUTPUT WITH THE SCREW ON THE CONNECTOR FACING TO THE
RIGHT (TOWARDS THE BANANA PLUG SOCKETS) WHEN LOOKING DIRECTLY AT THE REAR OF THE TIMER. YOU WILL BE PROMPTED
TO ACCEPT ANY BIB NUMBERS NOT IN THE DATABASE. OTHERWISE IT IS QUITE AUTOMATIC
TDC 8000 PLUS (TIME OF DAY OR NET TIMING USING RS232 CABLE)
SPLIT (PRO 1) 10 CHANNEL TIMER (PRO 10), DUAL TIMER (PRO 6)
THIS TIMER HAS EXACTLY THE SAME INPUTS AS THE S4 WITH THE ADDED FEATURE THAT YOU CAN USE DIRECT DIN PLUG
CONNECTION TO THE PHOTOCELLS OR THE BANANA SOCKETS IF YOU ARE USING BATTERY POWERED CELLS.

TIMY
DEFAULT PROGRAM, TIME OF DAY
THE TIMY HAS THE RED OR SINGLE COURSE CAPABILITY FROM EITHER THE BANANA JACKS OR THE DIN CONNECTOR. CHANNEL 0
IS THE DEFAULT START (PIN 1 DIN) AND CHANNEL 1 IS THE DEFAULT FINISH (PIN 2 DIN) THE BLUE COURSE CHANNELS FOR DUAL
RACING ARE ACCESSED FROM THE DB25 CONNECTOR AS ARE ALL 10 AVAILABLE CHANNELS. PST MAKES A SPECIAL THROUGH
CABLE TO ALLOW THE DATA FROM THE TIMY TO BE CARRIED FROM THE DB25 CONNECTOR TO THE PC AND THE BLUE COURSE
IMPULSES TO THE TIMY.
SINGLE COURSE
START CHANNEL 0 - BANANA JACKS ON TIMY FINISH CHANNEL 1 - DIRECT CABLE TO PHOTOCELL WITH DIN JACK OR CHANNEL 1
BANANA JACKS FOR BATTERY POWERED CELLS
DUAL COURSE
RED START CHANNEL 0 - BANANA JACKS ON TIMY RED FINISH CHANNEL 1 - DIRECT CABLE TO PHOTOCELL WITH DIN JACK OR
CHANNEL 1 BANANA JACKS FOR BATTERY POWERED CELLS BLUE START CHANNEL 2 THROUGH DB25 CONNECTOR WITH BATTERY
POWERED CELL BLUE FINISH CHANNEL 3 THROUGH DB25 CONNECTOR WITH BATTERY POWERED CELL
DISPLAYS
CONNECT THE CABLE WITH DB9 CONNECTOR (PIN 5 GROUND, PIN 3 SIGNAL) TO THE PC SERIAL PORT DESIGNATED FOR DISPLAY
OUTPUT. ALWAYS CHECK DEVICE MANAGER UNDER WINDOWS TO MAKE SURE THAT THE PORT EXISTS AND WHAT ITS COM
NUMBER IS. THE SOFTWARE WILL WARN YOU IF YOU HAVE AN ILLEGAL SELECTION. CONNECT THE CABLE TO THE DISPLAY RED OR
YELLOW IS SIGNAL AND BLACK IS GROUND. THE DISPLAYS DO NOT SHOW RUNNING TIME OR TICKING SECONDS, ONLY NET TIMES
AT THE FINISH. THE TDC 4000/8000 SELECTION DOES NOT ALLOW THE TIME TO BE SENT FROM THE PC AS IT IS BEING SENT DIRECTLY
FROM THE TIMER WITH A PST SPLITTER CABLE.
ALGE SINGLE DISPLAY
ROTARY DIAL ON "0", TOGGLE SWITCH IN CENTER
DUAL ALGE DISPLAYS
ROTARY DIAL ON 2 FOR RED COURSE, TOGGLE SWICTH IN CENTER ROTARY DIAL ON 4 FOR BLUE COURSE, TOGGLE SWITCH IN
CENTER
PHOENIX A
THE PHOENIX "A" DISPLAY IS DESIGNED TO DISPLAY BIB MEDAL AND TIME
ROTARY DIAL ON 1 FOR RED COURSE, TOGGLE IN THE CENTER ROTARY DIAL ON 2 FOR BLUE COURSE, TOGGLE IN THE CENTER
TIME (DATA) LOGGING
THIS CONCEPT ALLOWS THE OPERATOR TO HAVE A SMALL SERIAL PRINTER NEXT TO THE ANNOUNCER SO HE CAN READ THE
TIMES, MEDALS, HANDICAPS, TIME REQUIRED TO EARN BETTER MEDAL.
SERIAL TIME LOGGING WORKS WITH A DESIGNATED SERIAL PORT. CHECK DEVICE MANAGER FOR LEGAL PORTS.
