Proper camera alignment assures finish line accuracy. The goal is to square the camera both

horizontally and vertically. This is accomplished with the help of the calibration tool within the

Finish Line tab.

1. ➔ PLACE the timing computer in a stable location near the camera aligned on the finish-line

2. ➔ CONNECT the camera to the computer and obtain a live image within the software.

3. ➔ CHOOSE the Finish Line tab and check the Calibrate box and Both from the Mode drop

down list.

4. ➔ While standing on a ladder or reaching to

adjust the camera, align the camera so

that the vertical line is on the leading edge

of the finish line and the horizontal line is

perpendicular to a lane line

5. ➔ SELECT the ADD LINE button and draw a

vertical line directly on top of the

calibrated center line (positioned over the

finish line). Adjust the line width and color as

preferred and SELECT the Lock Overlay check

box and Uncheck the Calibration box
