time for that event. The factory default values for these pa-

rameters for each event are shown in the "Event Summary"

table. If desired, you may alter these automatically selected

parameters so that your own values are set whenever a new

mode is selected.

First, configure the timer as you require by selecting the

event type, time format, counting direction, warning horn

time and final horn time as outlined in the preceding sec-

tions. Then, use the

NEXT

PREV

key to move through the

list of setup options until "Set.Def" (set defaults) is dis-

played. Press the

SELECT OPTION

button to record the cur-

rent settings as the new default values for the current event

type. "Done" is displayed for a moment to indicate that your

request has been performed. The display is then returned to

the "Set.Def" option and the timer remains in setup mode. If

desired, you may continue to use the

NEXT

and

PREV

keys to

select other setup options. When you are finished, press the

EXIT SETUP

button to return to normal timing operation.

Now, whenever the event type you just modified is selected,

your new parameters for time format, counting direction,

etc., will be used.

Note that the new parameters are permanently recorded

only if the

SELECT OPTION

button is pressed while the

"Set.Def" option is displayed. You may exit setup without

permanently recording your changes by pressing

EXIT SETUP

before selecting the "Set.Def" option. If required, it is possi-

ble to restore the original factory settings. Call FarmTek for

assistance.

Timer Setup - Setting Scoreboard Brightness

Some scoreboards support different brightness levels which

can be controlled from the MD-300 Timer Console. By de-

fault, the brightness level is set to maximum brightness

whenever the timer is turned on. You can change this de-

fault condition. Contact FarmTek for assistance.

To change the scoreboard brightness level, press the

SETUP

key to enter the setup mode. As shown in the "MD-300

Setup Options Table," the "SB Brt" setup option is used to

change scoreboard brightness. Since the brightness option

is near the end of the setup options list, you may find it

quicker to use the

PREV

key to go backwards from the end of

the list to reach the brightness option rather than scrolling

forward through all the other setup options. Once the "SB

Brt" option is displayed, pressing the

SELECT OPTION

button

causes the scoreboard to alternate between the dim and

bright brightness settings. Note that not all scoreboards

support brightness control. When you are finished making

changes, press the

EXIT SETUP

button to return to normal

timing operation.

Alternate Button Functions

In addition to the normal functions of timer start/stop, re-

start, etc., the buttons on the MD-300 Timer Console per-

form an alternate function when pressed while holding down

the

PREVIOUS TIME

button. Here's how:

Press and hold down the

PREVIOUS TIME

button

(like the shift key on a typewriter), then...

Press any other key to perform the desired function.

RESET

TO ZERO

ELEC. EYE

ON / OFF

SOUND

HORN

RESET TO ZERO

is not normally required – the timer auto-

matically resets to zero whenever it is started. However, if

needed, this button allows you to force the display to read

zero (e.g., to force a scoreboard to show zero or blank).

ELEC. EYE ON/OFF

enables and disables the electric eyes. See

the "Locking Out the Electric Eyes" section.

SOUND HORN

provides the timer operator with manual con-

trol of the horn. More information is provided in the User's

Manual provided with the OE-200 Automatic Horn.
