Daktronics OmniSport 2000 Timing Console - Manual (Page 205)

Track Mode Operation 187
Lane On/Off for Each Individual Lane
At the start of a race, the timer automatically turns every lane on. It is up to the operator to
turn them off as needed. Use these keys to disable the empty lanes after the start of a race.
For each lane that is empty (no athlete in that lane), press [LANE ON/OFF] to tell the timer to
not expect any data from that lane. A second use of the key is to temporarily disable a lane
and then turn it back on.
Start
The operator has the option to start the timer counting by pressing [START]. The printer will
label the results with the source of the start. If the keypad was used it would be labeled
Source: Keyboard. If the start was from the horn start it would be labeled Source: External.
Examples when to use Start:
 Starting the race
 Testing the timing system or scoreboard
Store Print
The [STORE PRINT] key stores the race data for later use and prints the results for
verification. When pressed, the event data is stored up to its current status. It then performs
the printer commands selected in the Setup-Printer menu. To print information from a
previous race, go to the Print Stored Data Menu. Refer to Section 15.4 for more information.
If an error is observed on the printout, use the [EDIT] key to make corrections. Press
[STORE PRINT] to verify the correction. After all corrections have been completed, press
