3.7. Updating the Speedy X-treme through the BCE.
If new software is available for the Speedy X-treme then
this will indicate when the clock is connected to the BCE.
A message box will appear on the screen of the PC.
Following the instructions as indicated for the software
download.
After the process is completed, confirm its success by
powering the clock to view the software version
showing on the display.
Please note: The Speedy X-treme will communicate
with a Windows PC via any com port numbered
between 1 and 8. If these com ports are blocked by
previously connected devices it will be necessary to
delete ports in the PC’s control panel device manager.
Refer or carry out a Google search for instructions.
3.8. Entering a Name and Address into the BCE.
Click on the “Fancier - Detail” tab.”
If necessary click on the small Yellow Plus icon to
create a blank page for the fancier.
Enter information into the yellow boxes - Loft Number,
Name, Address, City, Postcode and Loft Coordinates.
The other boxes do not transfer to the clock.
The Serial nr of the ETS will be read from the clock
and can not be inputted manually.
Loft Numbers should be entered in the format of two
letters and five numbers (eg WM01234).
Loft Coordinates should be entered in the two boxes,
the first for the Latitude and the second for Longitude.
Loft Coordinates must be entered using the set
format as follows.
Latitude 52 32 17.94 North should be entered as +52 32 17.94
Longitude 1 56 31.59 West should be entered as +01 56 31.59
Longitude 0 25 42.75 East should be entered as -00 25 42.75
The words North, West or East should not be entered, but the + or - should.
3.9. Sending information to the Speedy X-treme.
When the information on the BCE screen has been correctly entered, it can then be sent directly to
the Speedy X-treme clock.
Connect the Speedy X-treme clock to the computer (see section 3.6).
Click on the “Fancier - Detail” tab.
Hover over the small icons “Send to ETS” and “Read from ETS” (without clicking on them).
The icon name will display and you can then be sure that you have found the correct icon.
Click on “Send to ETS” and all of the information showing on screen will transfer to the clock.
Please note: If red exclamation circles appear next to any position then it indicates that the
information has been entered incorrectly and must be amended before transfer can take place.
If the lower right section of the screen turns red, then the transfer can not take place because a
race remains on the clock. All races must be deleted from the clock before it can receive data.
