3.1 Deck Cabling and Lane Modules
Always place cables and equipment in areas of minimal
traffic. Cover wires and cables with a mat to prevent
accidents. Figure 7 illustrates an important detail to
always remember when plugging dual banana
connectors. The GND (ground) tab on the plug must
line up with the black female jack for the timing
system to work.
If some touchpads are connected backwards and some
connected correctly, it may cause touchpads to register
times when the pad has not been touched.
For an On-Deck System, connect the plug from
the touchpad to the TOUCHPAD jack on a lane
module (Figure 8).
After the system has been completely set up,
test each touchpad (refer to Section 3.2).
For an In-Deck System, connect the plug from the
touchpad into the TP jack on the lane deck plate
(Figure 9).
After the system has been completely set up, test
each touchpad (refer to Section 3.2).
For more information about any additional input device connections and connecting to the
OmniSport 2000 timer, refer to the OmniSport 2000 Timing Console Operations Manual
(ED-13312).
