Sync using NTP
Synchronize the date and time in the MYLAPS ProChip Smart Decoder to the date and time received via the Network Time
Protocol. This protocol synchronizes the decoder clock over packet-switched, variable-latency data networks.
Manual set Date - Time
Manually set the date and time in the MYLAPS ProChip Smart decoder.
Daylight Saving Time
Switch on or off the daylight saving time (summer time); the MYLAPS ProChip Smart Decoder clock is synchronized to
summer time.
Time Zone
Change the time zone to configure the UTC time to local time.
Leap seconds
Here you can set the leap seconds, a value between 10 and 30 seconds. Leap seconds will be applied to the GPS time to
make it an UTC time, and together with the time zone and daylight saving time settings this determines your local time. If the
retrieved GPS leap seconds don’t match with the leap seconds setting in the ProChip Smart Decoder a warning will be
displayed in the 'Sync on GPS' page and in the 'GPS status' page.
Notify at lost GPS
Here you can set MYLAPS ProChip Smart Decoder to display a warning if it temporarily ‘loses’ its GPS connection – the default
setting is not to warn for a lost GPS signal. Normally, once the MYLAPS ProChip Smart Decoder time has been synchronized to a
GPS signal, the time is sufficiently accurate and further synchronization with GPS should not be necessary.
4.3.3.2 Detection
Sport
•
Swimming – Choose for swimming events
•
Cycling - Choose for cycling events
•
Inline Skating - Choose for normal skating events
•
Ice Skating - Choose for ice skating events
•
Other - Choose for running, etc.
Time Between Same Chip for swimming
If sport mode ‘swimming’ is selected, the ProChip Smart Decoder will ask to set the Time Between Same Chip seconds. If a
chip is detected more than once within the defined interval, each new registration will be neglected until the interval is over.
Squelch
The squelch setting lets you suppress weak Prochip signals. This is useful if participants are walking near the antenna loop or the
coaxial cable and are accidentally detected. The default setting of –120 will detect and accept almost all ProChip hits. A ProChip hit
with a strength of –100 is very weak and a ProChip hit with a strenght of –30 is perceived as very strong. So, by changing the
squelch, the system will ignore ProChip hits that are below the squelch setting. For example, if the squelch setting is –80 (instead of
the default –120), all Prochip hits with a received strength below –80 will be ignored.
Minimum Linger Time
For sport modes cycling, inline skating, ice skating and other the 'minimum linger time' setting will be applied. If a ProChip
Transponder is in the antenna field for more than 2-10 seconds (possible to set the seconds) an extra passing is generated
when the ProChip Transponder leaves the antenna field.
4.3.3.3 Communication
Server Connection
•
Off - the MYLAPS ProChip Smart Decoder makes no connection to the CCNetServer
•
On – The MYLAPS ProChip Smart Decoder will try to connect to the CCNetServer via a GSM, a cabled internet
connection or a known WiFi network
Wi-Fi
Select an available Wi-Fi network to connect to. For new Wi-Fi networks it will ask to fill in the password. If you don’t want to
connect automatically to known networks set Wi-Fi to off.
