Using Your Infinity Electronic
Start System
To use the starter’s microphone for public address, press the push-to-
talk switch located on the top left side of the microphone and speak into
the grille on the front of the microphone.
To start a race, hold down the push-to-talk switch and press the start
button on the top left side of the microphone.
To recall a false start, hold down the push-to-talk switch and hold down
the start button a second time. The recall must be made within five (5)
seconds of the start pulse.
A convenient microphone rest is built into the Infinity to the left of the
connection panel. When the microphone is not in use, make a habit of
snapping the microphone on to the rest. Using the microphone rest keeps
the microphone out of the way and prevents accidental drops and potential
damage.
The strobe light flashes automatically whenever the start system receives
a start pulse.
When properly connected to an electronic timing system, the Infinity auto-
matically sends a start pulse to the timer whenever the microphone start
button is pressed. If your electronic timer does not start properly, check
the start cable connections both at the timer cable harness or deck plate,
and at your Infinity.
