2.2 Using the Timer
The operation of the CPT8200 Advanced timer is designed to match with the operation of the
OPN2002 Timer.
Thus the device will be initially ‘armed’ before the event, then used to capture the event start
time and the finish times of the competing athletes. At the end of the event the timer will be dis-
armed. This operation is summarised below:
