•
Note that the power to the Beacon Receiver and Beacon Transmitter must

Mode Switch Set to suit race category ( MoTeC will advise)
Tens & Units Switches

Beacon ID 999 is reserved for a master beacon that can be setup for the
use of anyone at a race meeting.

two vehicles so that only one beacon transmitter is required.
Lap Beacon Use
Normally the MoTeC Lap Beacon is used as a standard Lap beacon, ie. one
beacon transmitter placed at the start of the lap.
The beacon ID should be set as recommended above to ensure that no two
teams use the same number.

multiple transmitters around the race circuit. All beacon transmitters must
have the same Mode setting, but different Tens and Units settings. The
beacon receiver must have the same Mode setting as the transmitter,
however both the Tens and Units must be set to zero. Setting the Tens and
Units to zero instructs the receiver to recognise all transmitters with the same
Mode. The Tens and Units value of each transmitter will be reported to the
