4.4 Memo – Buffer for Mass Finish
In case several competitors reach the finish at the same time, start numbers cannot be entered as fast
as the stop impulses are received. In this case use the MEMO key. Before the first competitor of a throng
reaches the finish press MEMO. The start number can now be entered later on.
− Throng of competitors have nearly reached the finish; press <MEMO>
−
Start numbers of the competitors have to be noted in the correct order.
−
All times of the competitors are saved with continuous numbers.
− The time is printed with an „m“.
RS232 Output m####xCCCxHH:MM:SS.zhtqxGR(CR)
Printer Output m####xCCCxHH:MM:SS.zht
m Sign for memory time
#### all memory times are output with continuous numbers
CCC channel (e. g. C1 for finish time, C1M for manual finish time)

Assign numbers to the stored times:
The start numbers can be assigned to the competitors of the throng later on. This input can also be
