2.9 Basic Maintenance of Timing System
After each meet, it is crucial to follow these basic maintenance procedures to ensure the
longevity of the timing equipment.
Turn off the power to all equipment including the OmniSport 2000 console, HS-200
horn start, results computer, OmniSport 2000 Pro computer, matrix computer,
scoreboard, printers and any other equipment associated with the system.
When the system is set up for an event, touchpads should be removed from the
water every 48 hours, inspected, and allowed to dry for 6 hours.
o
Inspect the cable and connector for nicks, cuts, and corrosion. Use the brush
provided in the maintenance kit to remove any corrosion from the banana
connections.
o
Verify that all edge protectors are securely in place.
o
Verify the boot along the top front bend is not cut.
At the end of each meet, remove the touchpads
from the pool, and store them in a room
outside of the pool environment and chemicals.
Recommended temperatures in storage area
should range between 33°F and 90° F (55° C
and 32.2° C) with adequate fresh air circulation.
