1. T Your Chronoprinter 505 we will refer to it as CP505 is extremely well suited sequential timing especially when used in MANUAL MODE In this mode you must enter via the keyboard a car number TWICE for each racer first before the racer starts and again before the racer finishes By doing this the CP505 will calculate the elapsed or net time for each racer and store that time in memory This will allow you to print out sorted results at any time during or after the competition I If you forget to enter a bib number before a racer starts or finishes the CP505 will still print a time of day You can always go back and reassign the bib number later Because of this feature the chances of losing a time resulting in a re run is minimal With the CP505 you can put as many racers on course as you can reasonably handle It is important that the person operating the CP505 be in communication with the person starting the racers Once the timing operator has keyed in the car number he call tell the starter to send the racer The timing official can then be ready to re key the bib number of the racer approaching the finish The timing official should have a clear view of the course so he can identify the racer approaching the finish line The CP505 can also block signals coming from the start or finish sensors using the INPUT BLOCKING keys Refer to the main user manual for input blocking charac2. 505QUIK REV 5 92 TAG HEUER CHRONOPRINTER 505 QUICK OPERATING GUIDE A HOW THE CHRONOPRINTER WORKS oooo ooo o oo 2 Ba STARNDARD TIMING SET UP oooooooooooooooo 2 Co BEFORE STARTING THE RACE users tes ca aie OS 2 D TIMING A RACE IN MANUAL MODE 3 Big ITMINGA RAIN va a a a ii 3 F SPECIAL FUNCTIONS 1 TO RE ASSIGN A BIB NUMBER TO A TIME OF DAY 3 2 TO ELIMINATE A SINGLE COMPETITOR FROM MEMORY 3 Je PROCESSING DONE NS wir ways hits a ed cus a os 4 4 TO PRINT NET TIMES IN ASCENDING ORDER 4 5 TO ERASE THE CONTENTS OF THE MEMORY 4 G DUAL HEAD TO HEAD RACING Ti DEFER ENT EAT TIMES cris atte ges ooo E a 4 2 INDEPENDANT ELAPSED TIMES 4 He QUICK MODE ELAPSED TIMING secs el ea e ee 5 NOTE THE MAIN INSTRUCTION MANUAL WILL GIVE YOU GENERAL INFORMATION ON PROCEDURES MAINTENANCE AND TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS PLEASE REFER TO IT BEFORE OPERATING THE CP505 THIS WILL SERVE AS A REMINDER TO GET MAXIMUM BENEFIT FROM YOUR NEW TAG HEUER INSTRUMENT Copywright 1992 Reliable Racing Supply Inc A HOW THE CHRONOPRINTER WORKS
