3.3 Start Mode
There are three different start modes:
−
Single start : every competitor has a separate start time
−
Group start
: every group has a separate start time (within the group one start time)
− Mass start : all competitors start at the same time (same start time)
You can set the mode of the automatic stepping with menu 53. The set value is also indicated on the
start display by a beam.
Beam functions:
− At the top: after the start the start number jumps up to the next start number that has not yet
started
−
In the middle: manual mode, every start number has to be entered with the start keypad (12)
− At the bottom: after the start the start number jumps down to the next start number that has not
yet started
ATTENTION: Set the start number in the start display on 0 to deactivate the automatic stepping.
3.3.1 Single Start
