- Set the height of the tripods based on your needs (We recommend placing the photocells/
reflector pairs in height of 100 - 110 cm from the ground). Make sure that the photocells and
reflectors are in the same height so the beam of the photocell falls in the middle of the
reflector.
-
Place the reflector at a distance of 2 - 5 m from the photocell (Do not exceed the 5 m
distance).
-
Press ON/OFF button (button of the left - downwards arrow) for 2 < seconds. After
the long press (press and hold 2s <), you will hear a double beep and LED_power will
light up. The photocell is ready for use now.
Immediately after the ON/OFF button is released, information about a current setting
of the photocell is shown on the LED display for 5 seconds.
To see the
current setting
of the photocell (Gate Mode), press the ON/OFF button anytime
(short press only). The setting will be displayed for 3s.
Change the Gate Mode, Chanel Mode and Radio Frequency is possible to do in the setup
mode.
Use a long press of the Setup button (button in the middle - ENTER) to activate Setup Menu
of the photocell.
Use the selected Radio Frequency only in a country where the particular frequency is
allowed.
DO NOT USE THE RADIO FREQUENCY NOT ALLOWED IN THE COUNTRY OF THE
SYSTEM LOCATION.
Important Notice
It is possible to use any photocell number for start, finish and split times. However, it needs
to be synchronised with the gate setting in the Tendo Sprint System computer software (the
same number for start, finish and split times).
Recommendation
Maximum reliable signal transmition distance between the photocell and a Receiver is 100m.
However if you want to measure longer distance e.g. 200m, place the receiver in the middle
between the start and finish optogate (100m).
