1.4 THE TWO-DIMENSIONAL SYSTEM
Starting from version 1.8 of the OptoJump Next software it is possible to use a particular bar
configuration for obtaining a two-dimensional measurement area. To the classic bars (which we will
call X) more bars (Y) can be added to form a rectangle.
The regular closing Y TX bar is usually a bar WITHOUT interface drum. Updating the firmware of the
TX bar with drum (already included with all articles having a serial number higher than 00500) this
last hardware type can also be used. Therefore with a 5-meter modular system it is for example
possible to use the complete hardware building a 4-meter-long linear gait system. For serial
numbers lower than 00500 it is possible to ship the bar to Microgate or a distributor and receive a
free update (shipping costs for sending and receiving are excluded). It is also possible to buy one or
more additional single TX bars.
