8. Press the Driver button as the vehicle passes the second split marker
to set the distance.
This procedure sets both split timing distances automatically. Follow the
instructions on page 39 for setting the split timing distances manually if
you then need to make any adjustments to these distances.
Use the automatic split timing setup feature to measure and set the split
distances when you first visit and use a track. Before you leave the track,
note the split distances and then enter these distances manually during
future visits to the same track. This helps to ensure repeatability from
one visit to the next.
Hillclimb and Sprint Operation
To remove the requirement for a beacon at the start line, your ST700
Dash Display System has an ‘arming’ feature. This allows you to set the
ST700 Dash Display System so that it starts timing from the instant
when the wheels begin to move. Your system must include a function-
ing wheel speed sensor to use this feature.
Press the Driver button and the Rotary control together from the nor-
mal display mode to arm the system. The next time the vehicle starts
moving, the ST700 Dash Display System will record a lap mark. If the
vehicle is already moving, the ST700 Dash Display System will wait for
the speed to be zero.
You will still require a beacon at the finish line to give the end time.
