5. DISPLAY MODE
The ELIMINATOR has a display mode for displaying all types of different Tree
sequences. This is nice if you have a FULL SIZED Portatree Christmas Tree on display in a
showroom, museum, or sales booth. If you have a Large External L.E.D. display, then a special
advertising message can also be displayed.
At the Main Menu, depress the up / down arrow keys until you see “DISPLAY” highlighted
and then depress “STAGE / ENTER” Key to begin the display mode. In order to return to the
MAIN MENU, you must wait until you see Reaction Times on the screen and then depress the
“RESET” Key.
6.TRACK MODE
At the Main Menu, depress the down arrow key until you have “TRACK” highlighted and
then depress the STAGE / ENTER key. Test Track 1, 2, and 3 are used as listed below.
Use the Up / Down arrow key to select which option you wish to enter and then depress the
STAGE / ENTER Key. There is a special Auto Start with fixed delay which is not in Practice.
1) Test Track 1, which is a starting line only for 2 Lanes (Prestage & Stage).
2) Test Track 2 provides a Start and Finish in 2 Lanes with Reaction Times and Elapsed
times and Win Lights.
4) Test Track 3 is Single Lane only and provides Reaction Time, 60 Foot Time, Mid Track

If you have purchased a Test Track from PORTATREE, then a special instruction sheet and

7. DIAGNOSTICS
If you are experiencing difficulties with the Eliminator Super 2000, then you can call us
at 508-278-2199 Ext. 508 and we will use this diagnostics tool to help us troubleshoot your
unit. You can experiment yourself in this section. It shows battery voltage, does an LCD
screen test, and lets you test the membrane switch and L.E.D’s.
8. REAL TIME CLOCK (RTC)
If you have purchased the optional RTC (Real Time Clock) then you will be able to set
the correct time or modify the time to display correctly in your time zone. Depress the “Date –
Time / 3” Key at the main menu. The Eliminator 2000 Super will read the current time that is in
the RTC. You can edit the time using the “UP” or “DOWN” arrow keys and move to another
field by using the “RIGHT” or “LEFT” arrow keys. Save by using the “Stage/Enter” key and exit
without saving by using the “Stage/Escape” key.
9. TROUBLE SHOOTING

you up and running by phone, you will be instructed to send your unit back for testing and repair.
A) Most Common Problem - - The most common problem is low batteries. The second
most common problem is improper Rollout Settings. The third most common problem is
someone letting a friend use their ELIMINATOR and the settings are changed when it
returns. The LOG ON feature will definitely help in reducing problems related to letting a
friend use your unit.
B) Resetting Factory Settings – You can reset the factory settings by going to the MAIN
MENU and Highlighting “UTILITIES” and then depressing the STAGE/ENTER key until
you see DEFAULTS [No]. Use the Up arrow key to change to “Yes” and then depress the
STAGE/ENTER Key. This will automatically reset all settings to the original settings set at
the factory.
