The LAP receiver
It may be infrared or magnetic and it’s used to recognise a lap marker. In case of
Optic receiver an Infrared Transmitter, at the side of the track, is necessary; in
case of magnetic receiver the track must be provided of magnetic strips.
Infra Red receiver has to “see” the
transmitter placed on the trackside;
the gray point is the receiver eye.
Magnetic receiver has to be
installed on the floor of the kart, with
two tyre wraps. The arrows on the
magnetic receiver need to point to
the front and rear of the kart
MyChron 3 automatically recognises the lap receiver ( optic or
magnetic ) and so no beacon type configuration is needed.
