The electronic start system StartTime IV is used in several sport like athletics (AT), swimming
(SW), Speed Skating (SS) with Start & Microphone unit (SMU) or e-GUN.
The electronic start system is composed of a flash gun and a sound generation box.
When the starter active the gun trigger, simultaneously, a sound is played, a flash is emitted and a
start pulse is given to the timing device.
By pressing the trigger a second time within a programmable delay, the false start sound will be
played. The sounds can be changed / downloaded by a computer with a RS422 serial line.
StartTime IV has 2 started out connections, a telephone line allowing to connect a telephone
headset for better communication and can manage up to 3 different sports or disciplines.
It also features a multifunction LCD display, an enhanced internal amplifier, a keypad to select from
the various setup possibilities, a high fidelity loudspeaker and an integrated optical flash.
A line out allows optional loudspeakers to be connected to deliver the start signal as close as
possible and simultaneously to each athlete.
A microphone unit enables the starter to give the start signal while amplifying all the verbal
commands.
Two LEDs indicators on the microphone unit show the status of the timer device.
The StartTime IV unit also features the connectivity for an optional external microphone and
headset.
StartTime IV can be paired with the brand new e-GUN electronic starting device.
The new generation flash gun replaces powder gun and transducer to signal the start to the
athletes and trig the timing devices.
