Dolphin as Primary Timing System
(Standalone Operation -- Sports Timer not used)
In this mode, Meet Manager treats the Dolphin wireless watches as the primary times for
results. This Interface mode is built into MM at no extra charge.
Make sure your lane timers and starting official are trained.
When using the Dolphin Starter, the result file is written when the Starting Official presses
Start/Stop and then Reset. If lane timers also press Reset, additional files will be written.
When not using the Dolphin Starter, the result file is written after ALL lane timers press
Start/Stop and then Reset. Extra Reset presses could result in extra files; if a lane timer fails
to press Reset, the result file won’t be written unless you intervene with the Forced Reset
button (see Forced Reset, page 7, above).
Splits
Make sure your lane timers know whether to take splits. The lane timers should press
Start/Stop one time for each split. Up to 10 splits can be recorded per race.
After the Race
– If Using Dolphin Starter
After the race, the Starting Official will press Start/Stop and then Reset on the
Dolphin Starter. Reset causes the Dolphin software to write the result file to the
C:\CTSDolphin folder on the computer and the next race can be started.
If the Starting Official fails to press Reset after the race, the watches’ state will not
have a yellow light. Before the next race, use the Reset Timers button (or shortcut r)
to force a reset and cause the Dolphin software to write the result file.
– If NOT Using Dolphin Starter
As each swimmer finishes the race, the Lane Timer(s) in that lane will press one of
the side buttons (Start/Stop) and then Reset on the Watch(es) assigned to that lane.
After all Lane Timers press Start/Stop at the end of the race and then Reset, the
Dolphin software writes the result file to the C:\CTSDolphin folder on the computer
and the next race can be started.
If one or more of the lane timers fails to press Reset after the race, that watch’s state
will not have a yellow light. Before the next race, use the Reset Timers button (or
shortcut r) to force a reset and cause the Dolphin software to write the result file.
