16 Venus 7000 Connection Methods
Two RTD ports will need to be set up in the Venus 7000 software to receive information from
both the OmniSport 2000 console and DakStats 3000 Rodeo software. Typically RTD is sent
from DakStats 3000 Rodeo software to the Venus 7000 over Ethernet. In rare cases, serial
ports may be used instead.
 If the OmniSport 2000 console is connected to the Venus 7000 computer via a serial
connection, then the RTD input will be configured to the COM port that the RTD
Port (J5) is connected to.
 If the OmniSport 2000 console will send RTD over the network via DCS, the RTD
input is configured to receive timer data from the UDP socket set in DCS. Refer to
Section 2.5 for more information about configuring DCS.
