PortaTree TIMING SYSTEMS V3.6 & 4.0 - Manual (Page 5)

After 10 digits have revolved, the digit to the left will start to revolve. After 10 more
digits have revolved, the next digit to the left will begin to revolve and so forth. You can
quickly go back and forth between the UP and DOWN switch without changing columns.
The numbers will revolve at .2 second intervals so that you will know exactly where you
are. If you release the UP or DOWN switch for 2 seconds and then start again, you will
begin back at the digit furthest to the right. If you go up to 1, down to 0, then up, the
digit will jump to the next column. By doing this in succession, you can quickly move to
the furthest digit to the left.
At any time during the setup procedure, you can enter the practice part of the
program by depressing the START button. You can re-enter the setup procedure any
time, by depressing the MODE switch, selecting SETUP using the UP or DOWN switch
and depressing the START switch.
By continually depressing the MODE switch in the setup program, you will
advance the screen into the pro tree rollout section: P .240 P .240 flashing decimal
point indicates the position to be changed. The Pro Tree rollout is preset at .240 seconds
and can be adjusted by using the UP or DOWN switch. Rollout numbers, whatever
number you select, will be held in memory even after the eliminator is turned off.
DIAL-INS --- HANDICAPS --- STAGGERED STARTS
Depress the MODE switch until you see the handicap section which is directly
after the Pro Tree rollout: 00 . 00 00 . 00 left & right lane. Flashing decimal point
indicates location. By continuing to depress the MODE switch, you will display the tree
speed prompt. You can have any combination of a .500 / .400 Full Tree and a .400 / .500
Pro Tree by depressing the UP or DOWN switch and the screen will look like this:
(F .5 P .4) or (F .4 P .4) or (F .5 P .5) or (F .4 P .5)
NOTE: After power down, the Eliminator will stay at the current setting.
SINGLE USER MODE --- PRESET REACTION TIME
Depress the MODE switch again and you will see: P S .030. This is the preset
reaction time that you can enter so that when you are in single user mode, this is the
reaction time number to beat! Use the UP or DOWN switch to set this number. It will
range from .000 to .100 and will be added to the perfect number. If you are in .500 Full
Tree and have a .030 in this preset, you will be competing against a .530 reaction time. If
you switch to a .400 Pro Tree, you will be competing against a .430 reaction time. The
factory preset is .030 seconds. The number you select will remain in the computer’s
memory on power down.
