TOUCHING ON
Once you’ve switched on the Display Box by selectin
g
your weapon mode, the screen will
show the EnPointe lo
g
o to indicate that the system is ready for fencers to touch on.
If your weapon is plu
gg
ed in and connected to your lamé in Foil and Sabre, you can
‘touch on’ (re
g
ister) to the Display Box by holdin
g
the tip of your weapon near the
EnPointe lo
g
o below the screen.
The scrollin
g
blue square outline will indicate that a touch on is in pro
g
ress. This will
become a solid white square when the process is complete. This process should take less
than a second.
The fencer who touches on first will be allocated to the ri
g
ht-hand side of the piste. The
second fencer will be allocated to the left-hand side. You can swap any part of the
fencer’s equipment, includin
g
wires or weapons, without needin
g
to touch on a
g
ain.
Now you’re ready to fence! There is no calibration routine required.
TIP
When touched on, the battery indicator li
g
ht in the Pocket Boxes (viewed throu
g
h
the sockets) indicates the side of the piste the Pocket Box is currently touched on
to. The colours correspond to the on-tar
g
et li
g
ht on that side of the piste. So, on
the EnPointe Display Box: red=left,
g
reen=ri
g
ht.
