The ETS2 replaces the traditional clock and registers the time when the emiTags
pass the eLine loop, internal or external. The start-time and/or finish-time can
also be registered using an external start gate and/or photo cells. This enables a
timing resolution up to 31 uS accuracy (31/1000000).
The competitor’s tag ID and time are transmitted from the emiTags and back to
the ETS2 via an internal radio antenna. The data is saved locally before it is
transferred to a PC via USB, RS-232, RS-485 or GPRS.
The ETS2 and the emiTags may be used for timing in various sports, including
cross country skiing, biathlon, orienteering, ski orienteering, cycling (road racing,
time trials, off road, track cycling), running, triathlon, etc.
You may control the ETS2 from a computer or with the built-in keyboard, with six
variable menu keys and a numeric keyboard. The ETS2 has five LEDs (light
emitting diodes) and a graphic display which shows current information. The
LEDs change colour depending on the status of the event it is connected to.
You may use the ETS2 with the internal eLine loop or with up to two external
eLine loops. It is also possible to use Emit's 'StandUp Loop', if you prefer to have
a loop on the side of the course/track. The accuracy is better when you use two
eLine loops (approxiimately 1/100 second depending on the speed). When you
use one eLine loop the accuracy is about 1/10 second. Note that the range of the
internal eLine loop only is three metres.
Equipment included:
The ETS2 is delivered with the following equipment included:
Two eLine loops. The loops covers a twelve meters wide track.
