Smartspeed PT

Overview

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Each Smartspeed PT gate contains an in-built radio device for wireless communication through

Bluetooth and IEEE 802.15.4.

You will set up one of your PT units to be the master gate, which will connect via Bluetooth to your

mobile device. This gate will then command your other gates during the session. The master gate

must have its ID set to 0 to enable the Bluetooth module.

It is very important that you always place your master gate close to where you will be standing to

run the session, as the range of the Bluetooth connection is between 10 – 20m (depending on your

device). The master gate can be any of the gates; it does not have to be at the start or finish.

Don’t worry! If you walk out of range, the gates will still collect the data for the current athlete, and

your mobile device will give you a warning message. Once you walk back into range, the results will

show up on your device, and the next person will be able to start.

Once you set up and align your units, a beam will be created between the timing unit and the reflector. We call this a timing gate. When someone passes through this beam, we say that the gate has been broken. The first time you break the timing gate beam, the starting point (start time) will be set and the subsequent beam breaks will then list the split times. A split time is the time between beam breaks on one or more units.

NOTE – Once you have connected to your master gate, the device details will be saved. This means that the next time you use the application, all you need to do is turn your master gate on, and press the connect button like the one found on the home screen, and the application will attempt a connection to the master gate. Note that with this method, you do not need to make the device discoverable. 5.
