Clear Memory
After turning the TdC 8000 on (switch 26) you have to select the program. Then you are asked if
you want to clear the memory. The info-display (6) shows the following message:
Clear race: 9746/ 253 R1 F1
You can clear each
0/ 253 R2 F2
race individually with
651/ 6473 R3 F3
the <F> keys.
Continue: ENTER 943/ 6473 R4 F4
By pressing the <F> key you select the race that you want to clear. You can select different races at
the same time. It clears the memory when you press the <ENTER> key of the finish keyboard (15).
E.g.: If you clear race 1 and 3 it shows the following figures on the info-display (6):
Clear race: 9046/ 253 R1< F1
0/ 253 R2 F2
651/6473 R3< F3
Continue: ENTER 943/6473 R4 F4
If you press <ENTER> without pressing an <F> key it will not clear the memory.
2.6.
Select a Race
After clearing the memory you have to select the race that you want to use. You can keep a maxi-
mum of four races at the same time in the memory. Each race is completely independent. This
means that for each race you can use the same bib numbers from 1 to 9999 and you can make up
to 256 heats.
Select race: 7012/ 2987 R1< F1
0/ 2987 R2 F2
651/ 6473 R3 F3
Continue: ENTER 943/ 6473 R4 F4
Two numbers are shown for each race. The first number shows how much memory you have used,
and the second how much memory you have available. For a cleared race it shows zero as first
number. When "select race" is displayed the cursor will be placed on the previous race. If you want
to select that race again press <ENTER>. If you want to select a different race you can select with
key <F1>, <F2>, <F3>, or <F4>. The race selected is always marked with an arrow.
Memory was not cleared:
If you select a race that is not cleared it will show the following message in the info-display (6):
Select Heat: SAME (1)< F1
(1) means first heat
NEXT (2) F2
(2) means sec. heat
Continue: ENTER
If you select the same heat, you can continue to work in that same heat as you worked before.
If you select the next heat, then a new heat is started.
If you select a new heat:
-
All valid run times (or total times) will be stored as memory time
-
All other times will be cleared (e.g. start-, finish- ,intermediate time)
