Track Keys
The keys highlighted on the Track insert (LL-2573) are grouped together and shaded
by lane. Lane 1 keys line-up vertically with Lane 1 on the LCD, Lane 2 keys with Lane 2,
and so on through Lane 10. The lane keys, along with all other keys on the insert, are
described in the following sections.
Lane On/Off
At the start of a race, the timer automatically turns every lane on. It is up to the operator
to turn lanes off as needed. Use these keys to disable the empty lanes after the start of a
race.
For each lane that is empty (no runner in that lane), press [LANE ON/OFF] to tell the timer
to not expect any data from that lane. A second use of the key is to temporarily disable
a lane and then turn it back on.
Start
The operator has the option to start the timer counting by pressing [START]. The printer
will label the results with the source of the start. If the keypad was used it would be
labeled Source: Keyboard. If the start was from the horn start it would be labeled Source:
External.
Examples when to use Start:
• Starting the race
• Testing the timing system or scoreboard
Store Print
The [STORE PRINT] key stores the race data for later use and prints the results for
verication. When pressed, the event data is stored up to its current status. It then
performs the printer commands selected in the SETUP-PRINTER menu. To print information
from a previous race, go to the PRINT STORED DATA menu. Refer to Print Menu (p.127)
for more information.
