This user’s guide describes the use of
Emit Time Station ETS2
, which is used to
register
emiTags
.
The user’s guide firstly describes the ETS2’s various functions and then explains
how the enclosed extra equipment is to be connected and used.
Furthermore we take a look at the ETS2’s menu system and go through the
menu choices. In the menu you may set the clock, the station’s code, the
display’s appearance, the protocol, the range of the signal, etc. We also discuss
how to use the menu system for troubleshooting and explain recommended
procedures when problems occur.
To process data from the ETS2 and to generate the result lists you need a PC
program which is compatible with emiTag/ETS2.
All available circuit diagrams, illustrations and specifications of extra equipment
are included in the “Emitag - koblingsskjema” manual. Not all of them are equally
relevant, but we prefer to include too much rather than to omit information that
may be of interest for some. Spare parts and extra equipment are marked with
Elfa’s supply numbers and may be ordered directly from Elfa (our supplier) if you
wish to install the parts yourself. Some of the supply numbers from Elfa may
however be outdated. The safest option is to buy the parts directly from Emit,
installed and ready for use.
The last part of the manual explains how to update the firmware in the ETS2
using the 'eUpdate' program from Emit, and ETS2's technical specifications are
displayed on the last page.
We have chosen to mark ‘
input
’ (connection ports) with green, ‘
light emitting
diodes
’ with blue and ‘
key text
’ with red to make it easier to distinguish between
the different functions.
ETS2 4G is the first transponder-decoder that is FIS-approved for use in all FIS-
sports, and for all levels. In order to be FIS-approved a printer has been added.
In addition the hardware has been revised and fine-tuned to live up to FIS's
requirements on resolution, accuracy and drifting. This includes a precision of up
to 31 uS1/1000000 seconds on the printout, if the 'Start/Sync' or 'Finish' inputs
are used.
