DTS-1 TIMING SYSTEM
Solo Run
The DTS-1 can also be used to run a single vehicle.
Instead of pressing SET to start the race, press
MENU (to run solo in the left lane) or OPTION (to
run solo in the right lane). The staging and tree
modes will be the same as you have selected for
racing with two drivers, and the tree will give you the win-lights when you
cross the finish line, or “red-light” you if you leave the stage beams before
the green LED comes on to start the run. Note: The Starting Line Console
reflectors and Finish Line Console reflectors must be set up and aligned for
both lanes even when solo running.
Race Results
• Race winner: After the race, the Starting Line Console displays who won
the race by flashing all the LEDs in the lane of the winning driver multiple
times, then holding the white LED on for 20 seconds.
Tip: To clear the results before the 20 seconds is up, just press the SET button on
the Starting Line Console.
• Disqualified (DQ): If either racer takes off before the green light, the red
LED will light in the driver’s lane.
System Maintenance
Basic Maintenance
1. Turn the system off before performing any maintenance.
2. The dust covers / windows on the lasers need to be clean for best
operation. Use a soft cloth dampened with window cleaner or water to
gently wipe away any dust or dirt.
3. Reflectors should be cleaned the same way as the dust covers.
Binding the Starting Line Console and Finish Line Console
For proper operation, the Starting Line Console and Finish Line Console
must be electronically ‘bound.’ This has been done for you at the factory.
Should you ever need to re-bind the system, follow the instructions
below. Note: The Starting Line Console and Finish Line Console must have
batteries installed and must be within 5 feet of each other to bind properly.
1. On the Finish Line Console, press and hold the SET button and turn on
the power switch.
2. Release the SET button.
3. On the Starting Line Console, press and hold the SET button and turn
on the power switch.
4. Release the SET button. The Starting Line Console and Finish Line
Console will bind automatically.
