Timer Setup Panel: What Everything
means in the Timer Setup Wizard.
• There are usually six steps (1 through 6) in the
Timer Setup panel. The steps show the setup of
the selected timer.
Default choice:
Smart Gate (Single Flag), Ch 1:1+1:2 is the name of
the current timer. It shows that on the Wireless Smart
Gate “Ch 1”, Port 1 and Port 2 are the default timing
devices. Click the small green star shaped button to
create a new timer. Click the red “X”-shaped button to
remove the selected timer. Click anywhere on the
current timer’s name to see the names of other timers,
if any, that could be selected.
When reviewing a timer in the Timer Setup Wizard,
Step 1, Step 2, and Step 3 are not “active” which
means that there is nothing to change.
Step 4 is a list of measurements that will be visible
(selectable) in whatever Display is used. “Speed
Between Gates” and “Velocity Between Gates” are
already chosen. You can uncheck the chosen items
and/or check any of the other items.
State 1: This is “0.00” if detector Port 1 is unblocked
and “1.00” if detector Port 1 is blocked.
State 2: The same as “State 1” but for detector Port 2.
Time Between Gates: The time from when the first
detector port is blocked until the second detector port is
blocked.
Speed Between Gates: The speed of the object whose
motion is being measured based on the distance
between Detector Port 1 and Detector Port 2 (1.5 cm)
divided by the “Time Between Gates”.
Velocity Between Gates: The speed and direction of
the object whose motion is being measured. If Port 1 is
blocked first, then the direction is “positive”. If Port 2 is
blocked first, then the direction is “negative.”
Block Event Times, Gate 1: The amount of time that
Port 1 is blocked.
Block Event Times, Gate 2: The amount of time that
Port 2 is blocked.
Event Times, Gate 1: The time from when data
recording started until Port 1 is blocked.
Event Times, Gate 2: The time from when data
recording started until Port 2 is blocked.
