History file for TDC8000p/TDC8001 V 19.71 2019-07-18 "In the two phases jumping 124 it comes to crash of the TDC, if the block mode is activ and the finish channel of the first phase does not equal the channel number of the finish channel of the second phase" The finish channel of the second phase has been saved despite block mode, thus the entire memory content was printed. V 18.92 2018-09-19 "The count down of the second phase will be skipped in the riding programs 125 and 126" This will be taken into account when converting a blocked time in a valid time now. "Blocked times are converted to valid times by 'ALT CLEAR' is the input - information twice issued" Conversion by 'ALT CLEAR' an input - information is issued only by times deleted previously with 'CLEAR'. V 18.91 2018-09-13 "An automatic start time, after the count down, are represented with a hundredths of second precession" "Convert a blocked time to a valid time" Using the keyboard shortcut 'ALT CLEAR' to change a blocked start time in a valid start and a blocked finish time to a valid finish time. "TDC is slower in several riding programs, increasing number of equestrians" Blocked times are stored only in the short term and overwritten when a valid time is reach. Input buffer was doubled for times. Info display is described only twice per second with data. "Times stored when 'ALT BLOCK'" In the time span between the unblock and block again, a time measuring pulse from timing channels was a valid pulse. The rescission of a time blockage is now associated with the 'ALT BLOCK' keyboard shortcut V 17.91 2017-09-07 "From 15 teams of the TDC in the riding team competition is getting slower in its execution" The calculation of the team penalty points and team run time is now made after the rider pass the finish line and not in the time display routine that is called ten times per second. V 17.41 2017-04-13 "At over 60 riders and many blocked times in the TWO STAGE JUMPING (124), the TDC has been slow" The General search routine for deleted start times, after selecting a new starter, replaced by a special. "After program change from DUAL TIMER to PARALLEL DIF in a new race, then back in the DUAL TIMER, then was no longer possible to get a starttime" The program DUAL TIMER took over the usable channels of programme PARALLEL DIF, which has no start channel. Fixed the non checking of usable channels in the DUAL TIMER, if times are available. V 17.31 2017-03-21 "No more finish time in the two phase jumping, if target time is entered the first phase by input" In the riding programs with two consecutive phases, the finish time of the first phase by input or by ALT CLEAR, then no finish time of the second phase could be received, if the finish channel of the first phase was different to the finish channel of the second phase. If the first phase is finished manual by input or ALT CLEAR, the finish channel of the first phase was not overridden with the finish channel for the second phase. "The software version can be queried now with the NSF command" "On RS232 commands which are not available in the program, NOT is returned" "Menu contents queried via RS232 commands are partially incorrect or is missing" Because of new menus partly no longer showed on the right menu in the Table in which the assignment of the RS232 commands to the menu numbers is stored. V 17.11 2017-01-09 "Installation position of the round display in the speed skating should be possible even before the finish line" With the menu SHOW LAPS AFTER FINISH the position of the round display can be set. Is the menu 'on', so that is positioned round display after the finish line. The 'OFF' in the selection means that the round display is before the finish line. "Added the riding program TWO STAGE JUMPING 3 (FEI 274,5,3)" Two phase diving 3 is almost identical to the previous two phase jump, only in cases in which the first phase for the ranking of the riders will be used, will also need the runtime of the rider. "Added the riding program TWO STAGE JUMPING 2 (FEI 274,5,1)" In the two stage jumping 2 has the time that needs a rider for the two phases no effect on the ranking, only the points of failure are crucial. "A intermediate time in the memo mode is not issued in the day time form" In the memo mode a output of a intermediate time in day time form, as in normal mode, implemented. "Added menu for the selection of a GAZ display mode for Table C" With the menu CALCULATED OUTPUT GAZ the display mode can be set. At 'ON' the 'C' before summed up run time will be shown and the penalty seconds remain visible. When 'OFF' after displaying the summed up run time the penalty seconds appear on '0'. "When disqualified by time out in various horse riding programs, no assignment of a finish time was possible after a start time 'CLEAR'" After a disqualification, the indicator for this finish time is set. This will now reset again after a start time 'CLEAR'. "After a start time 'CLEAR' in the riding programs a running count down is been set back to the initial value" The count down continues time elapsed since the start of the count down to press the 'CLEAR' button is passed. Should be the passed time longer than total count down time, for a new start the initial value of the count down will be shown. V 16.81 2016-08-18 "Crash in the speed skating after pressing of 'ALT MEMO'" The keyboard shortcut 'ALT MEMO' is now blocked in the keys selection. "Baud rate for GAZ was set to 2400 baud after switching the TDC on, but displayed with the last set baud rate" After switching the TDC on the GAZ baud rate is set now to the value stored in the EEPROM. "Memo mode could not be dereferenced in the speed skating, if there was no memo times present" If no memo times are displayed, the memo mode is canceled now by pressing the 'MEMO' button. "After leaving the memo mode not all characters of the heading have been deleted" The heading of the normal mode completely overwrites the heading of the memo mode now. "If in the memo mode of speed skating still no memo times available, a pressed 'CLEAR' button fills the memo display with any old times" After pressing a 'CLEAR' button in the memo mode it is checked if there exist any memo time. "The first time of channel 1 or Channel 4 could be assigned to a wrong lane in the memo mode of speed skating" Verifies now the possible channel in the respective lane may occur, before assign the first time. "After existing the first time a time from the same channel was assigned to the wrong lane" An incorrect parameter was used for check the potential channel after existing the first time. V 15.B1 2015-11-19 "Times to wrong numbers were allocated in the BIBO" Startnumbers were not used the from the calculated Bibo order list. This update fixes the bug which already occurs in the version of 14.91. V 15.A1 2015-10-15 "The finish channel of the first phase is now selectable for TWO STAGE JUMPING" Menu 67 (finish channel 1. phase) select the finish channel of the first phase. After a finish channel has been selected, the pulse source selecting is followed. Available pulse source options are WTN, TED, or cable. "TDC does not start on the version of 15.31 after EPROM exchange" The copy operation when reading the EEPROM ended up in an endless loop. The copy function included in programming language replaced by own one. "Increased number of possible timeout channels" Channel 2 to channel 9 are now selectable. "Pulse source of the timeout channel can be set in the menu 65 (timeout channel)" The pulse source can be selected in the sub-menu of the Menu 65 (timeout channel). "Start channel triggering with Wireless E-start now possible" Features of Wireless E-start are now taken into account. "TDC text elements by Christian Beikircher translated into the Italian language" V 15.31 2015-03-10 "Selectable timeout channel in the riding programs" Now the the channels 2,3 and 4 are in Menu 65 (timeout channel) available, so a WTN (wireless timing net) can take over the function of the timeout or the countdown start or stop. "New beeper option is available" In the new beeper option (with valid time) the sound beeps only when the time signal is valid. "Announcement of the next starter on the GAZ in the program split from the second round" On GAZ address 'B' will be shown the next start number together with the time from the previous round. "The default value of the latching blockkeys mode modified from OFF to ON" V 14.91 2014-09-01 "Adjustable precession in program parallel diff" "Latching blockkeys in agility just like in showjumping" "No credits displayed on GAZ/DMV scoreboard after timeout error in show jumping program 133" Missing menu 47 (ADD PTM IMMEDIATELY) unlocked. "Time measurement by the last appeared channel impulse" Not the first impulse stops the time like usual, but the last appeared one. If the value in menu 64 (LAST IMPULS VALIDITY) is lager then '0' the last impulse will be after this period of time the valid impulse. "Build in a couple start in program Split" With the keyboard shortcut 'ALT F1' the last starttime will copy to the next startnumber. With the keyboard shortcut "ALT F2' the last starttime will copy to a free any old startnumber. V 14.21 2014-02-24 "If a finishtime was available, no other group starttime could clear anymore" Now a group Starttime could erased, if no intermediate or finish time of one of the group member is available. "A classement 'All' is not print out any more in all showjumping applications" The 'classementCalc' flag is set now for all showjumping applications again. "The date of adjustment is not print out any more" To show the date of adjustment press the key 'ALT' and 'TEST' on the function keyboard. V 13.A1 2013-10-10 "Message on info window if a puls hold from a 'radio channel' exists" To get this message a WTN (Wireless Timing Net) has conected with a 25 pin D-Sub connector on TDC. And also the used channel must switch on in menu 59 (Impuls from radio). If the channel is not switch on as a 'radio channal, a message is print out on printer to invoke menue 59 to declare the channel as a 'radio channel'. "Intermediate times now in daytime form on RS232 interface" If menu 18 RS232 RUN TIME is switch on, a intermediate time is send out in daytime form and in runtime form. Intermediate times in runtime form now mark with a little 'c', in the past with a large 'C'. If menu 18 RS232 RUN TIME is switch off, a intermediate time is send out only in daytime form. Intermediate times in daytime form now always mark with a large 'C'. This changes are not valid for the printer! V 13.42 2013-04-25 "Start times download on RS232 with full precession" Command: SST #### C0 HH:MM:SS.zhtz RRCR; SST=commandidentification (Send Start Time); ####=startnumber; C0=channelnumber; daytime in hours (HH), minutes (MM), seconds (SS), tenth (z), hundredths (h), thousands (t), tenthousands (z); RR=reserve=00; CR=Carriage Return (0x0D). (SST 0012 C0 10:00:01.5000 00CR) Between channel and daytime are two 'space' (blanks) for separation, at the rest only one 'space'. The hardware handshake RTS/CTS is needed to control the downloadspeed to the TDC. V 13.41 2013-04-11 "Date of calibrate and TDC serial number could not store in Eeprom" If read a wrong contents from Eeprom, now it will corrected immediately. V 13.31 2013-03-27 "RS485 interface (Menu 63: RS485 User)": GAZ scoreboards control with 2400 baud and 9600 baud. DMV scoreboards control with 2400 baud, 9600 baud and 19200 baud. Receiving delayed time packages form a WTN device with 38400 baud rate. "Wireless Time Network (WTN)": Direct processing of delayed times within a delay of 0.8 sec. A longer delay put out a warning on printer. Put out a warning on printer, if receive delayed times and the trigger channel is not registered as a channel with impuls from radio (Menu 59: Impuls from radio). In this case a automatic correction of the standard radio delay 0.1 sec will be not execute. "GAZ baud rate": Now it is possible to cut off the data communication to a GAZ/DMV scoreboard. (Menu 19: D-Board Baudrate). "Up to 99 groups": The maximum count in groups from 40 to 99 increased. "Countdown in Agility": Adjustable countdown like in showjumping (Menu 43: Count down time 1). "Memomode": Fix the bug of a to long delay time between the startnummer allocation and the data output to a GAZ/DMV scoreboard, if running thenth (menu 9) is off. "Program selection": Fix a possible crash bug, if you try to type a programm nummber 25 into the input mask.
