Disqualification (DQ)
Before the meet, the timing operator should clarify with the meet referee if he/she wants the
swimmers to be disqualified on the timer. Clarification of this is important for results to be
properly ranked on the printouts and meet management software which will show as a DQ
on the scoreboard.
Press [DQ] (disqualification) and [LANE ON/OFF] for the desired lane (or press the lane
number on the numeric keypad) and press [ENTER]. The DQ operation is normally done at
the conclusion of the race, after the officials have ruled on the situation that caused the
swimmer to be disqualified. On exit from the DQ command, the scoreboard is automatically
updated and any subsequent printouts will show the revised placing. The DQ operation
shown on the right LCD as illustrated, can be done at any point in the race and does not affect
arming or recording of times for the lane. Press the same
lane number again while in the DQ command to re-qualify
the swimmer and the original status indicator is returned.
