RaceAmerica 5812 Wireless SBD Timer
from other T-Links.
Install the PC Software, configure the software
for the PC COM port receiving the data; use the
software ‘Help’ sections as required.
OPERATION
When the SBD Timer is set up and aligned
with T-Links, it is time to race. The system allows
ten seconds (10 sec) after the first finish to allow
the second racer to finish before reseing. Upon
completion of the race, the winning lane and
differential and/or ET will display on the PC (XX.
XXX) an/or the LED Display.
After each race, the timer is locked out for
ten seconds to allow dirt and dust to settle.
USING SPARE T-LINKS
T-Link2 identifier codes are preset at the
factory. Using an external Reconfig Jumper
provided with the backup T-Link2 unit, a T-Link’s
ID code can be changed enabling a single backup
unit to replace any unit with the same optimizer
code. With the 5812EXR T-Link, a spare ID ‘Z’
unit can be reconfigured as an ID ‘A’, ‘B’ or ‘C’
unit. To temporarily change the ID code of a T-
Link2 unit, power the unit off. Select the Reconfig
Jumper with the desired ID code and install into
the T-Port of the T-Link2 unit to be reconfigured.
Power on the T-Link2 unit. The left LED will flash
three short times to confirm the T-Link2 unit has
been reconfigured to the new ID code. Unplug
the Reconfig Jumper and connect any cables to
the T-Link2 unit for normal use. Do not power
off the T-Link2 unit after a new ID code has been
assigned. The change of ID is temporary. When
the T-Link2 unit is powered off, the ID code will
revert back to the preset ID shown on the bottom
of the T-Link2 unit.
BATTERY CHARGE
Charge the batteries using the external charger
unit provided by RaceAmerica. All functional
electronics are disabled during battery recharge
to avoid damage. Typically battery charging will
take 2 hours. The charger indicator LED will turn
