Starting Official Instructions
Work with the Computer Operator to make sure that the Dolphin Starter and Watches have
been properly set up for your meet, following the Hardware Set Up Instructions (p. 4).
There are two ways to start the Dolphin Watches using the Dolphin Starter. Follow the
directions below for the one your facility is using for this meet.
Electronic Start System
NOTE: The Dolphin Starter must be connected to the electronic start system’s
Timer Start
or
Start Output
jack. Connection to any other jack
will
damage the Dolphin Starter.

Use the electronic start system to start the race. The start time will be sent wirelessly
from the Dolphin Starter to the Lane Watches, starting them.
2.
After the race, press Start/Stop and then Reset on the Dolphin Starter to reset the
system for the next race. (At Reset, the Dolphin software will write a result file on the
computer for access by meet management software.)
Synchronized Start/Manual Stop

Press Start/Stop on the Dolphin Starter simultaneously with the start signal for the
swimmers. The start signal will be sent wirelessly from the Dolphin Starter to the
Lane Watches, starting them.

After the last swimmer touches the wall, press Start/Stop on the Starter, and then
Reset. You are now ready for the next race. (At Reset, the Dolphin software will
