Sensitivity Adjustment (New Feature for 2004)
The Speed-Timer 3000 is factory set for a sensitivity to handle the majority
of Firearms indoors and out. It is set to pickup shots from approximately
20 Feet (6 Meters) from the Timer.
Under normal circumstances there
is no need to change these setting,
however this Timer can be modified
to suit a particular location or application if necessary.
Should you find that this setting requires adjustment you can proceed as
follows:
Turn the Speed-Timer 3000 face down with the Belt Clip facing you.
Through the hole on the left side back of the Speed-Timer 3000 you will
notice a
white
Philips head adjusting screw. Turning this adjusting screw
in
very
small increments Counter Clockwise (Left) will decrease the
sensitivity, turning the adjusting screw Clockwise (right) in
very
small
increments will increase the sensitivity. This adjustment should be tested
for satisfactory results between each adjustment of the screw.
Please note that this adjustment screw does not turn more than 270
Degree's and care should be taken not to try to turn this screw past its
stop positions. Failure to follow this instruction can damage the Timer.
Continued on the following page.
Hint:
Use a small screwdriver so you can feel the rotation for the adjustiment
and do not force.
Factory setting for this adjustment is approximately
half way between the fully clockwise and anti clockwise stops.
To Use the Hands Free Carry Case (Sold Separately)
Can protect your Speed-Timer 3000 when not in use.
Will attach to your Belt for secure and easy access while recording shots.
Just fold the flap back, attach the flap to the Velcro and slip it on your belt,
or can be attached to your wrist, for "Hands Free" use while recording
shots. Fold the flap around your wrist and attach to the Velcro for "Hands
Free" use.
DISPLAY with a Speed-Timer 3000 (RF) Only:
Install a 9 volt Alkaline Battery in the battery compartment of the
DISPLAY.
Turn on the
DISPLAY
with the on/off switch located on the left side of the
unit. Make a note of the ID displayed, on the screen, which will appear for
approximately 5 seconds.
With the screen on the
Speed-Timer 3000 (RF)
blank, hold down the PAR
key on the
Speed-Timer 3000 (RF)
for 7-10 seconds.
You will now see a four digit ID displayed on the
Speed-Timer 3000 (RF)
with the first digit flashing. Using the up and down arrow keys set the first
number if required to the first number that the
DISPLAY
displayed when it
was first turned on and press the PAR key. \The second digit will now be
flashing, again using the arrow key up or down to set this digit and press
the PAR key. Repeat this process for all remaining digits and press the
PAR key to finish.
Your timer is now set to communicate with this
DISPLAY
only! This

Operating The Speed-Timer 3000 (RF) / DISPLAY
Make sure that your
Speed-Timer 3000 (RF)
is set to communicate with
the
DISPLAY
as above.
Begin recording shots with your
Speed-Timer 3000 (RF)
and watch the
DISPLAY
display your times.
Helpful Hints and Operation Specifications:
Reception to the
DISPLAY
from a
Speed-Timer 3000
(RF)
is approximately 25 Meters but
may be effected by the proximity of metal objects, light fixtures and
building structure. It may be necessary to change the location of the
DISPLAY
for better reception.
The
Speed-Timer 3000 (RF) and DISPLAY
are precision electronic
devices, having an operation range of -10C to +40C. Use in temperatures
outside this range may permanently damage these units. Do not leave the
DISPLAY
in direct sun light for long periods of time.
The
Speed-Timer 3000 (RF) and DISPLAY
are not waterproof but can
be used in the rain without any performance deterioration while sealed
inside plastic waterproof bags. (E.G. Freezer Locking Bags)
When not in use, turn off the
DISPLAY
using the switch on the left side of
the unit to conserve the battery life.
Trouble Shooting:
My
Speed-Timer 3000 (RF)
will not send data to my
DISPLAY
. Check
that the
Speed-Timer 3000 (RF)
ID is set to the same ID as the
DISPLAY
.
My
DISPLAY
seems to miss picking up shots from my
Speed-Timer 3000
(RF)
. Check the battery in the
DISPLAY
, most likely causes is a low
battery in the
DISPLAY
or being just out of range between the two units.
Note: When not using your
The Speed-Timer 3000 (RF) with a DISPLAY
set your ID to 0000 as shipped.
I have set the ID but the Display does not receive data. Check the serial
number in the battery compartment to verify that you are using a
Speed-
Timer 3000 (RF)
. If the serial number contains an “N” the timer is not an
(RF) Model.
Always record the official time for any event as that
time displayed on the
Speed-Timer 3000.
