History file for the Timy-User-Program ====================================== V 24.71 09.07.2024 Includes WTN2 version V24.72 bug fixed in the WTN2 software: WTN2 devices could not be set to the socket mode. V 24.11 17.01.2024 "SPEED": Bug fixed: When the memory was entirely filled, no more timing triggers were possible. The user had to clear to memory, in order to keep on working. V 23.C1 05.12.2023 "SPEED": Precision can be adjusted. V 23.B1 08.11.2023 "STOPWATCH": bug fixed: When entering a mass-start, errorounes datas could appear, also a Timy-reset could appear. "WINDSPEED": bug fixed: If the time memory was full, the Timy worked extrem slowly. Now it is not possible, in the NORM MODE, to write the measure-result into the time memory. V 23.A1 30.10.2023 "PC-TIMER": bug fixed: settings keep remained after switching the Timy off and on. RS232-baudrate: This setting was not kept remained. Includes WTN2 version V23.91 V 23.94 05.09.2023 "TRACK + "FIELD": All boards are cleared. Until now there were 5 minus-characters at the field "width". V 23.93 04.09.2023 "TRACK + FIELD": Minor correction regarding CLR-button V 23.92 01.09.2023 "SPEED": bug fixed V 23.83 29.08.2023 "PRINTER-P6": The P6-Update-procedure was changed. "TRACK AND FIELD": By pressing the CLR-button all current entries are set to zero, and then the blinking cursor is at the place, where the BIB is entered. All scoreboards are cleared. V 23.82 24.08.2023 "SPEED". bugs fixed: If the unit of the distance is in mm, then the min. and max. runtime was wrongly calculated. If min-speed was set to 0000.1 kmh, then the speed-settings were set to default. If the min-speed was set to 0000.0 kmh then a warning-beep appeared, and this value was not accepted. But if the user goes again to the input-menu of the min-speed, still 0000.0 kmh was erroneously displayed. Bug fixed: If a Timy3W synchronizes an other Timy3W over WTN, then the active Timy3W did not accept any C0-trigger. V 23.81 22.08.2023 Printer P6 version is V 20.37 again. V 23.78 26.07.2023 After an update a previous wtn-socket-configuration is correctly deleted. V 23.77 25.07.2023 Improved behavior when the timing-memory is full. V 23.75 19.07.2023 "SPEED": More functions: Distance can be in millimeter or meter (default meter) An arming switch can be activated for channel 0 and channel 1(default: not activated) "TRACK AND FIELD": When displaying the width at the displayboard the prezeros are blanked. "USB": bug fixed: twice a day, there were corrupted usb-datas Includes WTN2 version V 23.61 Includes Printer P6 version V 23.61 "STOPWATCH": A bug was fixed, when a time-packet was receive by USB or RS232. V 23.51 10.05.2023 Includes WTN2 version V 23.32 Includes WTN version V 23.33 If the user switches to "MENU"->CHANNELS"->"TED-RX"->"OFF" the RS232-baudrate is set to standard 9600 baud. "BACKUP", "PC-TIMER": bug fixed: If "MENU"->"BACKUP"->"MEMOTIME"->"DO NOT PRINT" was set, the memo time was still printed out. If "MENU"->"BACKUP"->"MEMOTIME"->"PRINT" was set, the memo time was printed out twice. "BACKUP": correction of received time-packets: If "STN *" was switched on, then a packet, which starts with "*1234...." was also displayed like this. IF a packet, which starts with "c1234...." was received in the NORM-MODE, this packet is also displayed in the display. "STOPWATCH:, "BACKUP", "PC-TIMER": A received time-packet (USB or RS232) is processed as follows: "c1234 C0 10:00:00.0000 00" A daytime shall be cleared. First the Timy looks for this time in the memo-memory. If founded, it will be cleared. Bib, channel and time must match. If not founded, the Timy looks for it in the "normal" time-memory, and if founded clears ist. Addition to "STOPWATCH": C0 clears a start-time, C1..C8 clears a finish-time. "*1234 C0 10:00:00.0000 00" This time/bib/channel is accepted immediately. STOPWATCH: C0 ==> bib for START C1..C8 ==> bib for FINISH " 1234 C0 10:00:00.0000 00" This time/channel is accepted, the bib is generated from the Timy. STOPWATCH: C0 ==> bib is got from the start-window of the Timy C1..C8 ==> bib is got from the finish-window of the Timy. "m1234 C0 10:00:00.0000 00" This time is printed out as a memo-time. STOPWATCH: Channel may range from C1 to C8. Chanel C0 is automatically converted to channel C1. V 23.42 17.04.2023 bug fixed: "STOPWATCH": This didn't work: A received (by USB or RS232) timepacket is used as following: zB "*1234 C0 10:00:00.0000 00" This time is immediately used. includes WTN version V 23.33 V 23.22 20.02.2023 "STOPWATCH": bug fixed. The menu button was blocked, when a runtime was intended to be disqualified. V 23.21 17.02.2023 bug fixed: prevent division by 0 at the 24h-calibration-test. V 23.11 20.01.2023 "BACKUP","PC-TIMER", "STOPWATCH": A received (by USB or RS232) timepacket is used as following: zB "*1234 C0 10:00:00.0000 00" This time is immediately used. zB " 1234 C0 10:00:00.0000 00" This time is printed out as a memo-time. Then the user can decide, what to do. "STOPWATCH": rank calculation: Only for finish-times (channel 1). rank calculation: bug fixed. "TIMEOUT": DTG command activated. V 22.A2 25.10.2022 "BACKUP","PC-TIMER", "STOPWATCH": The Timy can receive over RS232 or USB a timepacket. The timepacket must have the same format, as those which is created by the Time After the channel there must be a ' '. For the program "BACKUP","PC-TIMER" the first character must be a '*'. zB "*1234 C0 10:00:00.0000 00" For the program "STOPWATCH" the first character must be a ' '. zB " 1234 C0 10:00:00.0000 00" Includes WTN version V 22.81 Includes WTN2 version V 22.A3 The Timy detects if there are also some WTN2-devices in the team, and also their software version. The Timy can update by radio WTN devices and also WTN2 devices. "WTN": The system message "WTN old version" appeares only twice, then only after switching the Timy off and on again. "TIMEOUT": bug fixed: Sometimes a trigger was displayed wrongly. "TRAINING LIGHT": bug fixed: Sometimes a trigger was displayed wrongly. The command "SYNA" can be used in each Timy program. Standard delay time for channel 0 was changed to 0,3s. V 22.51 20.05.2022 Bug fixed: Display was freezing when Timy received unexpected RS485 data. V 22.33 31.03.2022 Bug fixed: The menu "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"RS232"->"TIMY<-->TIMY" is only in the program STOPWATCH activated. The system message: "WTN: old version" with "Alive-Signals ?" can now also be deactivated by pressing the button F0. V 22.32 30.03.2022 Timy to Timy Connection: The "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"RS232"->"TIMY<-->TIMY" looks like: "TDISCONNECT" (renamed) "OVER CABLE" (new) "OVER WTN" (new) "CHECK CONNECT." "SEND IT" "SEND FINSIH-BIB" "OVER CABLE": Connection over RS232-cable "OVER WTN" : Connection over WTN, which uses the RS232 of the WTN After that, this menu appears: " START C0 " " FINISH+IT C1-8" When choosing one of these 2 points the connection will be built. Then the Timy asks it the user wants to syncronize the 2 Timys over WTN. You can confirm by F0 and F1 or disclaim by F2 and F3. The user is responsible, that on the external Timy the TED-RX is switched off. (MENU->CHANNELS->TED-RX->OFF) the baudrate is on 9600. (MENU->INTERFACE->RS232->BAUDRATE->9600) the WTN module is switched on, (MENU->WTN->WTN-POWER->ON) if "OVER WTN" the wtn-rs232 is on.(MENU->WTN->SETTINGS->RS232->ON) in case of "SYNCHONIZE over WTN" (MENU->GENERAL->SYNC->OVER-WTN->PASSIVE) On the Timy, which initiates the connection, all these settings are done automatically. "WINDSPEED" Can work with the WINDSPEED WS2, which enables the 8s and 12s measuring. The 8s-measuring can be startet by the buttons 2nd+F0 or by the command USB/RS232: "SP2T" The 12s-measuring can be startet by the buttons 2nd+F1 or by the command USB/RS232: "SP2Z" The command "DEVINFO?" additionally reports the level of pin P3.4: "5Vext=0 or 1" "WTN": If a member of the current team with a different version, then only those with device-type 0 to 10(BANG2-REV1) are displayed in a system-message. Device-tpyes > 10 are not displayed. "STOPWATCH": small corrections V 22.22 25.02.2022 "WTN": The system message "WTN OLD VERSION" could be rejected by pressing the F0 button. When a new member joined this team, and the wtn version was different, this system message appeared again. But now the system message "WTN OLD VERSION" remained off, when pressed the F0 button. When switching the Timy on and off, it appears again. Duration of showing "WTN OLD VERSION" was increased from 5s to 8s. "SPEED": 6 timing channels are needed for 3 measuring points. Can be done with 6 PR1aW (light beam with wtn) in the so called sockte mode. New: The Timy can restore the old socket configuration when the entire timing system was switched off and on. Command "TESTF4xxx" "TESTF8xxx" outputs a sound 400 Hz or 800 Hz for the duration of xxx hundrets s (HORN). V 22.21 16.02.2022 "WTN": Includes WTN software version V 22.21 "STOPWATCH": mass start can be done by 3 ways: 1.) First enter a range/group FROM_BIB to UNTIL_BIB, then enter the starttimy manually. 2.) The first of the range has already started, then the range FROM_BIB to UNTIL_BIB can be defined. The starttime can be used for the entire range, OR 3.) the startime of the already started BIB can be modified, which will be validated for the entire range. If there is or there are already started runner in the range FROM_BIB to UNTIL_BIB, the Timy asks if overwritring is allowed. If there is or there are already finished runner in the range, then mass-start is not allowed, and the Timy shows an error message. V 22.12 20.01.2022 Bug fixed: PRINTER-P6-Update: If it was not possible to to start the needed printer-P6-update, a message is output at the display and the printer, and the printer-p6-update-procedure is cancelled. The current P6-version is alsp printed out. A printer-P6-update is done only once at TIMY3-WP. V 22.11 11.01.2022 "STOPWATCH": bug fixed When in the memo mode a memo-time was COPIED then the runtime in the finish-window was shown as "0.00". On the printer and in the memory-window it was shown correctly. V 21.C1 06.12.2021 New WTN-DEVICE-TYPE added: BANG2. Shown as "BNG2" in the Timy's display. V 21.B2 18.11.2021 "STOPWATCH": "STOPWATCH"->"RANK AT DISPL." Until now the rank could be switche off or on only at the display. Now "STOPWATCH"->"SHOW THE RANK" The rank can be switched off or on at the display and at the scoreboard. V 21.B1 12.11.2021 "STOPWATCH": bug fixed When the start time, the finish time or the runtime was changed manually, in all cases the runtime was not shown correctly at the displayboard and also not in the finish-window of the display. The old runtime was shown.. V 21.A1 07.10.2021 Includes WTN software version V 21.91 "USB": Improvement V 21.91 06.09.2021 "USB" bug fixed, when reading out the memory, the data flow stumbled sometimes of one byte. V 21,71 13.07.2021 "TRACK+FIELD": The width is shown no longer as 4digits but as 5digits format. "SPEED": bug fixed: If the unit was set to "time", then on measure point 2 and 3 the result was always shown in "speed" instead of "time". V 21.61 17.06.2021 "TRAINING LIGHT": bug fixed: When pressing the STOP-button prior to start, then you were not able to start a run. "STOPWATCH": "bib-automatic" on SST-command: "bib automatic"->"finish"->"start" When a start-time arrives by a sst command, the bib is copied from the startwindow to the finishwindow. "bib-automatic"->"finish"->"finish" When a start time arrives by a sst command and later a finish-trigger arrives, the bib automatic in the finish-windows goes ahead. "bib automatic"->"finish" can be on "start", "finish" or "manually": "start" :The bib of the startwindow will be copied to the finsh window. "finish":When a finish-trigger arrives, the runtime is shown as long as the display-delaytime has not elapsed. Then the bib of the finish-windows goes to the bib of the next runner in the start-queue. Addition to version V 18.62 (In the commandset it was already documented.) New command "DTG": Writes a content directly to the displayboard. At that time at least 21 characters were mandatory (after the DTG) In the mean time at least 3 characters are needed in order to write a bib to the displayboard. New command "GAZ": GAZ0 display board off and the wtn-display-board-module off. GAZ1 display board on, but the wtn-display-board-module is off The command GAZ2 and GAZ3 works only, if the wtn-module is already on, prior to these commands. GAZ2 display board on, wtn-display-board-mdoule on. GAZ3 like GAZ0, but the wtn-display-board is on. V 21.41 13.04.2021 "TRAINING-LIGHT": bug fixed. When the OFF-button was hold for 3s, the screen goes blank. After 15 s the screen was restored. But "Really switch off?" should appear. This bug happened, if no runner has started. "COMMANDER": "CONCENTRATION-CLOCK": The settings remains stored after switching the Timy off and on. Each intervall can be set to the circle-mode or not. V 21.22 16.02.2021 "STOPWATCH": "MENU"->"STOPWATCH"->"RANK AT DISPL." can be switched on or off. Defines if the rank of the bib, currently in the finish-window, shall be shown together with the runtime. (default is ON). Only if the rutime is less then 1 hour, the rank is shown at the display. V 21.21 11.02.2021 "STOPWATCH": Some bug fixed regarding classement-calculation at ex-equo-times at classement for memory-time and total-time mass-start: bug fixed and small improvements bug fixed when copying a runtime delaytime 1 activated ( when being in the second heat) When changing to the next heat, the setting to show the runtimer or totaltime is retained. "WTN": Sometimes the message "PARAMETER NOT SENT" appered erronously at the display, when the rs232 of the WTN-module was switched off. V 20.C3 22.12.2020 Printer P6: bug fixed: 4 lines were printed that they have overlayed each other. Happens e.g. when the battery is weak, and then an external power supply is connected to the Timy. "STOPWATCH": The rank is also sent to the displayboard in the second heat. V 20.C1 03.12.2020 Printer P6: update procdure improved "STOPWATCH": The rank is also sent with the runtime to the displayboard. Intermediate time: For each channel and bib an intermediate time can be triggered only once. Any more triggers are unvalid. Entering the bib in the start-window has the effect, that "s1234" is sent to the rs232/usb. V 20.A2 27.10.2020 Includes for the printer P6 the version "V 20.37". If the Timy detects during powering on a printer P6, then it checks the version of the P6, and if the P6 version is not "V 20.37", then the P6 will be updatet. V 20.A1 01.10.2020 "START-DISPLAY": Bug fixed: During the red countdown state, sometimes a second was skipped. V 20.93 22.09.2020 "START-DISPLAY": Bug fixed: During the red countdown state, sometimes a second was skipped. V 20.92 08.09.2020 "CYLCE-START": Improvement if countdown has elapsed and the number of rounds is not zero. When the countdown has elpased, zero is shown, then after the dislpay-delay-time the number of rounds are shown. V 20.91 01..09.2020 "CYCLE-START" some improvements reagarding displayboard, perzeroes are suppresed now. V 20.13 27.01.2020 Includes WTN software version V 20.11 V 20.12 10.01.2020 "Concentration Clock": circle-mode can be switched on or off(default) "graphic bug" fixed: in "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"DISPLAYBOARD"->TIME AND DATE" "CC FALSE START": Triggers which happen prior to the MINUS-range (prior to C0), are marked with an '?' and no longer with a '*' in the display. "TIMEOUT": bug fixed: In the second-mode the netto-time was marked with an large 'C'. But correct is a small 'c'. V 19.C3 10.12.2019 New program: "Cross Country False Start" (short "CC FALSE START") V 19.A6 23.10.2019 Includes WTN version V19.91 "Track and Field": Additional displayboard with address 3 It shows the bib the attempt and the concentration-clock, the 5s windspeed and the width. Over USb the width can be input anytime. If the user confirms the value in an input field(bib,attempt, width), it will be send to the pc over USB. "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"DISPLAY BOARD" The contrast will be done by the command "K x" (x is '0'..'9'). V 19.91 02.09.2019 bug fixed: menu items in the language "NETHERLANDS" corrected. V 19.82 28.08.2019 bug fixed: If the language was set to "NETHERLANDS", the menu has shown nonsense. V 19.72 23.07.2019 "STOPWATCH": bug fixed: If there are many runtimes, and many have the same value, it can happen, that when getting the classement over usb or com, many times were skipped. "SAFE-DRIVING 2" : New special program V 19.21 08.02.2019 SPEED: bug fixed: If the runtime was greater than 5s, then on the RS232/USB the daytime of the 2.timing-impulse was put out instead of the runtime. V 19.13 21.01.2109 Bug fixed: On the printer and in the display "WTN parameter" "Do not send" was shown, although it was not necessary. V 19.12 18.01.2019 Bug fixed: If one or more channels of C0 to C5 directly at the Timy was/were permanently triggered(pulse hold) and during that time a timing impulse was triggered by an other WTN-member, then the timing channel, which was permanently triggered at the Timy was blocked. The same for the rising edge. V 19.11 11.01.2019 Includes WTN version V 18.C1 "MENU"->"PRINTER"->"PRINTER MODE"->"PRINTER ON" When switching the Timy on or when choosing this menu-item, the printer version and if the printer is a P5 or P6 will be queried. "USB": 2 bugs fixed: regarding the stability of the USB communication. V 18.C4 17.12.2018 WTN: If an other WTN device has sent its settings, on the Timy's display a message appears, that the Timy will not send any settings to the wtn-net. This message appears for 15s (with countdown time in seconds), and it will also be printed out. It can be changed anytime by turning "MENU"->"WTN"->"BROADCAST PARM" to "SEND PARAMETER". When the wtn-module will be turned on, this menu item will also be turned to "SEND PARAMETER". If the user goes to the INFO-menu by pressing "2nd"+"MENU", in the display's corner top left you can see the text "INFO3" in one of the 4 possible appearings: INFO3 : WTN-MODUL is off, "BROADCAST PARM"->"DO NOT SEND" INFO3W : WTN-MODUL is on, "BROADCAST PARM"->"SEND PARAMETER" INFO3w : WTN-MODUL is on, "BROADCAST PARM"->"DO NOT SEND" INFO3(p) : WTN-MODUL is off, "BROADCAST PARM"->"SEND PARAMETER" V 18.C1 07.12.2018 Some bugs of V18.B3 fixed.

Reporting a netto-time to RS232/USB will be correctly send with a small 'c'. bug fixed: Starting a new race by pressing "2nd"+"CLR" and then F0 = YES caused the display to get blank. Now a new race can only be started when the 2nd-button is not hold down. V 18.84 12.09.2018 "CYCLE-START": You can only us a "NEW DLINE BOARD". There are 3 additional char in the display-output-data-string. V 18.83 10.09.2018 "TERMINAL": bug fixed: _idle_ () aktivated. "TIMEOUT": An intermediate time will be send to the RS232 with daytime and runtime (until now only runtime). You can disqulify a bib by sending a SST-command. Channel 0 is always enabled, except the time is halted by channel 1. "STOPWATCH": bug fixed: When sending the runtime to the RS232 only the precision was considered, but not the rounding. bug fixed: Pressing F0: "RT/TT" or F2 : "SC" may be only valid if the 2nd-button was not hold simultaneously. "SPEED-CLIMBING": Standard: Random Start delay is OFF. "PARALLEL-START": Standard: "COMMONN START"->"NO" "MODE"->"STARTER" V 18.74 24.07.2018 GPS-Syncronization: During the GPS-display-mode you can haer a beep when gps-position is fixed. bug fixed: setting of delaytime: eg. 3 photocells PR1aW, all are set to C0 Set the delaytime at the Timy3W to eg. 5.0s. The delaytime is also valid for triggers,which arrive as a DATA-PACKET. Only if the delaytime has elapsed, new DATA-PACKETS will be accepted. V 18.71 03.07.2018 Includes WTN-Version V 18.62 V 18.64 27.06.2018 "PC-TIMER","BACKUP": bug fixed: When a TED-RX is connected, then sometimes "CHECK TED CONNECTION" has happened, and a timing-trigger was missing. "WTN": Includes WTN-Version V 18.34 V 18.63 25.06.2018 "TRAINING LIGHT": Mode: "C1-FINISH": bug fixed: When many timing triggeres and then a C1-trigger has happened, then, after the display-delaytime, the display has jumped to the next bib. But all timing-triggers shall be shown at the display, each trigger shall be shown according to the display-delaytime. V 18.62 12.06.2018 "DTG"-command: bug fixed: sometimes datas were overwritten. V 18.61 08.06.2018 "DTG"-command: the min. length is 3 characters after the DTG, in order that e.g. the bib can be shown at the displayboard. "SPEED" bug fixed: The settings for min. and max. speed is now valid for all 3 measure-points. "TRACK and "FIELD" default intervall times are 30s, 1:00min and 2:00 min. "PCTIMER": bug fixed: When turning the Timy off by pressing 2nd+OFF, after turning on again, the memory was at one position not correct. bug fixed: When turning the Timy off by pressing 2nd+OFF, after turning on again, and presssing F0 , no times were shown in the memory-display. "PULSE HOLD": default: channel 0 : pulse hold detection is deactivated. The command "KAMU", which turns each timing channel on or off, can be used at all programs. V 18.42 13.04.2018 Eine Resynchronisation des Timy per "SYNA"- oder "SYNM"-Kommando wird zu Protokollzwecken ausgedruckt. V 18.23 27.02.2018 "PARALLEL-START". bug fixed in the "STARTER"-mode: the starts on C0 and C3 was not exactly on the time grid. bug fixed: RF-Update: the display has frozen. V 18.22 13.02.2018 "WTN": Includes WTN version V 18.21 New menu item: "MENU"->"WTN"->"BROADCAST PARM": "DO NOT SEND" "SEND PARAMETER" (standard) ad "DO NOT SEND": Usefull if e.g. a optic3 is in the same wtn team. Then the optic3 should be the central wtn-device. Then the Timy3W does not send its settings to the wtn net. "GPS": If a lightbeam pulls the cannel 0 during a gps-sync-process permanently low, the timy writes "PLEASE CHECK C0" at the display. The user has to adjust the lightbeam properly or disconnect it. "SPEED": menu item "LEVEL" was renamed to "HORN LEVEL". "STOPWATCH": It is possible to to delete a bib by pressing CLR + OKgreen, if it has already some intermediate times. "RS232": RTS/CTS handshake If it is switched on, and no rs232 calbe is connected, then all 10s a message appears at the display, which tells the user to check the cable or switch off the hardware-handshake be pressing the F0 button. "TRACKTIMER": On a new bib in the mode ALTERNATING, LANE and RANK-Mode the display board should not be blanked, but "0.0s" should be shown at the display board. "TRAINING REF": Some users switch the Timy off be pressing the OFF button for 3s. This should not result in generating a timing impulse C1M. If a trigger happens outside the time window, it will be marked wit '?' and th channel number. Until now it was marked with "C-". "BACKUP": "GSM": SMS mode: bug fixed: 1.) Sometimes a time went lost, when rapidly entering the bib. 2.) Sometimes the sms mode was reseted.

Default and after an update: All triggers which come from the wtn will be delivered as a data packet, and not as a hardware-trigger. "MENU"->"CHANNELS"->"INTERNAL"->"EDGW"->"C0-C5" FALLING RISING BOTH EDGES FALLING AS TRIGGER All triggers will be delivered as a hardware trigger. V 17.71 21.07.2017 "WTN": Includes version V 17.61 bug fixed: handshake at RS232: If the handshake (RTS/CTS) was activated and no rs232 cable was connected, it could happen that the printer and the lcd workded with a delay of approx. 5s. "TRACKTIMER": bug fixed: The automatic reconfiguration of the wtn socket mode didn't work alwyws properly. "COMMANDER"->"COUNTER" : pulse hold detection for channel 3 deactivated, because channel 3 was pulled down if the counter state reached got to 0. bug fixed: delay time of a timing channel at 0.01s: Trigger were detected altoough the difference was less than 0.01s. V 17.63 19.06.2017 "WINDSPEED" bug fixed: "No windspeed connected" V 17.62 13.06.2017 "WINDSPEED" and "TRACK AND FIELD": In this programs the remote commands over RS232 were changed. It is possible to remote the Timy over RS232 commands at 2400 baud with singe characters N,W,L,H,A. It ist not possible to send remote commands over RS232 like "NSF?", since the only singel characters were parsed, and not data packets with carriage return. Remote commands over USB are still the same. V 17.61 07.06.2017 SYNC over WTN,as described at V 17.44 deactivated ! WTN version 17.31, V 17.51 19.05.2017 "WTN": Includes version V 17.51 V 17.44 26.04.2017 The Timy3W can syncronize other WTN-devices (Timy3W,OPTIC3,...) over WTN.

After changing the program, or after switching the Timy on, all messages will be displayed again. "PULSE HOLD DETECTION" by WTN When this message appears on the display, the user can wipe it by presssing F0 button. The message will still be sent over the USB. After changing the program, or after switching the Timy on, all messages will be displayed again. "PULSE HOLD DETECTION" directy at the TIMY When this message appears on the display, the user can wipe it by presssing F0 button. So no more pulse hold detections for this channel will be displayed. The user can turn on showing pulse hold detections by "MENU"->"CHANNELS"->"PULSE HOLD" setting to e.g. 5.0s. After changing the program, or after switching the Timy on, all messages will be displayed again. "TIMY": "MENU"->"GENERAL"->"AUTOMATIC PROG": It is possible to set the current program as automatic starting program, when switching the Timy on. If the user has changed to an other program, on the next switching on, the Timy will start with the program, which was defined as automatic prog. Some small changes V 15.77 17.07.2015 "FIELD-EVENT": The user can define at which boards the concenctration clocl (CC:CC) shall be displayed: "MENU"->"FIELD-EVENT"->"BOARD CC:CC" "DLINE" "GAZ" "DLINE+GAZ" PULSE HOLD DETECTION for falling and rising edge directly at the Timy. Can only be defined by "MENU"->"CHANNELS"->"PULSE HOLD"->"FALLING EDGE" and "RISING EDGE". The interval can be defined: 5.0s = default after an update 0.0s = means: deactivated 59.9s = max. value By F0 the settings can be sent to the WTN (and the WTN-net). Default after an update: For channels 0..8 falling edge: 5.0s For channels 0..5 rising edge: 0.0s (deactivated) channel 0..8 : LOW-pulse hold possible channel 0..5 : HIGH-pulse hold possible Message to USB: e.g. channel 2: "PULSE HOLD:[in][ch 02][s 01]" LOW 1-or 2-edge-mode "PULSE HOLD:[in][ch 02][s 04]" HIGH 2-edge-mode [in] shall indicate: internal channel The "Menu"->"WTN"->"Settings"->"Pulse hold" was removed, since it was deeper integerated in the Timy. The "Menu"->"WTN"->"Settings"->"edge" was removed, since it was deeper integerated in the Timy. The "Menu"->"WTN"->"Settings"->"STANDARD" was removed, since it was deeper integerated in the Timy. It was deeper integrated, because the WTN-module is the extension of the Timy, and changes of the settings at the Timy will automatcally sent also to the WTN-module. "FIELD-EVENT": bug fixed The concentration clock was sent to board 3, but it shall be sent to board 2. "TIMY" If only one channel will be set to rising oder both edge, then the WTN will be set to 2edge-mode. "MENU"->"CHANNELS"->"INTERNAL"->"0.1s-CORRECTION"->"C0" "C1" "C2" "C3" "C4" There are 3 settings possible: " 0.0s" : The timing impulse comes by cable the Timy "-0.1s" : The timing impulse comes by wireleless connection (WTN or TED) to the Timy. "ESTART-W": The timing impulse comes wirelessly to the Timy, and was created by an eSTART-W device. When the Timy gets a WTN-data-packet, he can autamtically calculate the time, check the menu-settings and printout a warning, if the settings are wrong. But the Timy will not change the menu-settings. Example of a printed out message: "Check 0.1 Corr. for C0" A WTN-data-packet was received from an WTN-device(not an eSTART-W). "Shall be: -0.1s" or "Shall be: eSTART-W" It was received from an eSTART-W. V 15.75 08.07.2015 "JUMPING" bug fixed: RS232/USB works OK. Pulse hold for channel 0 was deactived "WTN": Version V 15.71 inkludiert.

V 14.31 11.03.2014 WTN: includes WTN version V14.22 Auto-Update for the wtn module: On an Timy update, also an WTN module update can be done. "SPEED": default after an update: distance = 10 m. distance 2 = 10 m. distance 3 = 10 m. "TRAINING LIGHT": On a request with "PROG?" also the mode will be shown. "PROG: TRAINING LIGHT,SUB:COUNT-IMPULSE\r" "PROG: TRAINING LIGHT,SUB:C1-FINISHED\r" V 14.11 08.01.2014 WTN: includes WTN version V13.C3 Timy3: Timy2: "MENU"->"CHANNELS"->"INTERNAL"->"EDGE"->"C0-C5"->"FALL" "RISING" "BOTH" All settings are possible on a Timy2 and Timy3. After an Timy update : Timy2: WTN is off. Timy3: WTN remains unchanged(on oder off). A permanent trigger, called pulse hold detection will be sent to the USB port: "PULSE HOLD:[00][ch 04][s 04]\r" [s XX] = state 2 digits 01 LOW 1-edge-mode (02 1-edge-mode, currently not used) 03 LOW 2-edge-mdoe 04 HIGH 2-edge-mode [ch XX] = channel 2 digits 00..04:(1 byte):Bit 6-7 : reserved, currently always 0 Bit 0-5 : channel 0-63, but only 0..4 are used [00]: terminal :(1 byte): 00 = standard device, 00..FF Bit 7 : 0..Main, 1..Turn Bit 0-6: 0 = standard, 1..32 terminal number [in]: in a future version, this entry is also possible Then at the field [ch XX] the range will be from 00..08 possible. V 13.CC 19.12.2013 Timy2: Pulse hold detection will be shown on the Timys display, when on an external WTN a 'P' is shown on its display. V 13.B7 21.11.2013 "Speed": enhanced to use 3 measuring points: 1 with C0 and C1 as before 2 with C2 and C3 3 with C4 and C5 "MENU"->"SPEED"->"MEAS-POINTS"-> "1", "2" or "3" can be selected. "TIMY 2": "TRAINING-REF": bug fixed on "NEW REF RUN": LCD backlight: bug fixed V 13.AA 25.10.2013 "TRAINING REF": bug fixed: If some runners are on course, and "CLEAR MEMORY" was pressed, the memory was cleared, but the active runners were not removed completely. V 13.A8 14.10.2013 "WTN": "MENU"->"WTN"->"SETTINGS"->"RF-UPDATE" was enhanced. Some more useful informations are shown on the display. V 13.A6 11.10.2013 "LAPTIMER", "TRACKTIMER" , "TRAINING-LIGHT" and "TRAINING REF": "buf fixed": When used with the TED RX with th cable 207 (Menu->Channels->TedRX->ON). On the printer was printed "Check TED-RX connection" erroneously. V 13.A2 02.10.2013 "WTN": Some corrections and improvements V 13.9F 23.09.2013 "GPS: small correction of showing the leap seconds in the display. "WTN": requires WTN software V13.92 After an update: WTN POWER is not changed default by our company is: WTN POWER OFF. A delayed time, which is greater than 0.8s is unvalid. WTN POWER OFF: RS232-RTS/CTS is off. WTN POWER ON : RS232-RTS/CTS is on. "WINDSPEED": The Timy automatically detects if a WTN is connected or not. The Timy can use the WINDSPEED over WTN or over directly connected cable. The Timy doesn't communicates over RS232, only over USB. "SPEED CLIMBING": After an external start (C0) trigger, a random delay from 0,5s to 1,5s can be set to delay the start. "COMMANDER", "COUNTDOWN": some small corrections: mode: "STOP AT 0": only 2 times, the Value 0 will be sent and then no more datas will be sent to th display board. "STOPWATCH": On a Timy to Timy connection: receiving th finish-bib is on. In "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"RS232"->"TIMY<-->TIMY"->"SEND FINISH-BIB" you can switch it on or off. If there is no Timy to Timy connection build up, the finish-bib will be sent to RS232 and USB by "n1234" as before. "BACKUP": You can enter the bib over RS232/USB with "#1234" also in the memo-mode. The menu "CHANNEL 0" is turned off, but still visible. "CHANNEL 0" is controlled by "MENU"->"CHANNELS"->"PATTERN". There is a menu to control the bibs: "MENU"->"BACKUP"->"STN+OK"->"STANDARD" : as before, default after an update "FORMER BIB" "STANDARD": 1 2 3 45 Number 45 was enterd manually 46 to be continiued with 46... 47 48 "FORMER BIB": 1 2 3 45 Number 45 was entered manually 5 to be continiued with 5, the internal counting goes on. 6 7 "TRAINING LIGHT": When choosing "IMPULSE" there is addional information: "WITHOUT START" (former: "WITHOUT C0") "TED-RX": If "MENU"->"KANAELE"->"TED-RX"->"ON" is on, then the Timy can detect if the connection with the TED-RX is not correctly. Until now a warining was printed out. Now: "Check TED-RX connection!" "TERMINAL:" Entering the address will be checked. If address > 99 then address = 0. Until now also address = 0 was possiblen, which must not be. "LAPTIMER": "TV-TIMER": seconds-mode is possible. "MENU"->"ALLGEMEIN"-"SEK-MODUS" for switching on or off. V 13.22 05.02.2013 GPS: leap seconds can be set by 3 ways: a.) by a Timy-Update: After a Timy-Update the leap seconds are set to the current valid value. Since July,1st 2012 and for the entire year 2013 there are 16 leap seconds. This value is within the update file, and overwrites the value set by point b.) or c.). b.) by "MENU"->"GENERAL"->"GPS LEAP SEC.": In this menu the user can set between 16 and 63 s, and the user is responsible, when he change this value. Also the current leap seconds, and when they were officialy increased are displayed in this menu That way the value changed by a.) or c.) will be overwritten. c.) by the GPS-device: When the gps device was connected to the Timy at least 13 minutes, and the gps device provides for are higher value of the leap seconds than those, which are already in the Timy, then the Timy will define the new value for the leap seconds according to the gps device. That way the value changed by b.) or c.) will be overwritten. In the "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"DISPLAY BOARD"->"TIME + DATE" the user can syncronize or set a DLINE with the Timy-daytime. command: "DEVINFO" changed to "DEVINFO?" (just for Timy2) command: "NSF" chanded to "NSF?" "TIMY2": The commands "ABGL" and "DEVNR" are only possible on the Timy2. "PC-TIMER": bug fixed: The command "SYNMhh:mm:ss.zhtZ" didn't work correctly, The live signal was further sent for 0,5s to the RS232/USB, although the command "EMU0" was sent prior to this. "TRAINING LIGHT": When entering "IMPULSES" there is an additionally information: "WITHOUT C0" That means how many timing impulses WITHOUT C0 are expected to reach the finish condition. e.g. START,IT,FINISH ==> 2 IMPULSES (note the difference to TRAINING-REF) "TRAINING REF": When entering "MEAS-POINTS" there is an addionally informatiopn: "INCL. START" That means that the START-POINT is also one of the measuring points. e.g. START,IT,STOP ==> 3 measuring points (note the differenct to TRAINING-LIGHT) 07.11.2012 V12B2 ================ "TENNIS": "NO ADVANTAGE" and "CHAMP.TIEBREAK" The settings remains after a change of playmode. The settings will be cleared, if the Timy is powered off and on, as before. When playing a champion tiebreak and the match is finished, then the score will be shown. e.g. "Best of 3": GREEN 60___9 GREEN+1 ==> 60__10 former: 60____ was shown. ROT 06_*_0 06___0 06____ When playing a "regular" tiebreak and the match is finished, the score is cleared as before. 06.11.2012 V12B1 ================ "TENNIS": "ADVANTAGE" as before or optionally "NO ADVANTAGE". "MENU"->"COMMAND-PROG"->"TENNIS"->"NO ADVANTAGE"->"NO" As before. After each powering on, default "NO". At 40:40 a difference of 2 points wins the game. "MENU"->"COMMAND-PROG"->"TENNIS"->"NO ADVANTAGE"->"YES" At 40:40 the next point decides the game. It is not necessary to reach a difference of 2 points. But during a tiebreak a difference of 2 points is still necessary. "CHAMPION TIEBREAK": "MENU"->"COMMAND-PROG"->"TENNIS"->"CHAMP.TIEBREAK"->"NO" As before, default after an powering on. "MENU"->"COMMAND-PROG"->"TENNIS"->"CHAMP.TIEBREAK"->"YES" Eg. "best of 2": If the sets are equal (1:1) the the user is asked: +----------+---------+ |Champion | | |Tiebreak | 3.SET | +----------+---------+ F0 F1 F2 F3 With the function buttons, the user can choose the further game. "best of 5":5SATZ: If the sets are at 2:2, then the user can choose: Champion Tiebreak or 5.SET. "UNIVERSAL": If the sets are 1:1 or 2:2, then the user can choose: Champion Tiebreak or "3.SET" / "5.SET" "WTN": default: WTN is ON. ecxept in the programs "WINDSPEED" and "TERMINAL" because in these programs the WTN can currently not be used. unvalid delaytimes are rejected. USB: Specification changed from V1.0 to V1.1 "PARALLEL-DIFF": bug fixed: Somtimes the result was not or delayed shown at the display board. Small graphic bug at the start-bib. "CYCLE-START": Standard setting after an update or pressing MENU->GENERAL->STANDARD: Countdowntime = 50s Signal: 35s ON 25s ON 10s ON Rounds = 0 Lights = Standard "BACKUP": "MENU"->"CHANNELS"->"INTERNAL"->"EDGE" for channel 0..5 the user can choose the edge: * falling * rising, * falling and rising (2edge-mode) einstellen. During the 2edge-mode, the rising edge is marked with '/': "t0001 C0 08:19:17.8831 00" falling edge, as before "t0002 C0/ 08:19:19.6638 00" rising edge, marked with '/' If the edge is set to falling OR rising, then each time is shown without '/'. 10.09.2012 V1291 ================ "SPEED": When showing "best speed" on board 4, also the bib is shown. Until now the bib on board 4 was 000. "WTN": A "delayed time" over WTN is marked with an 't'. Only if: "MENU"->"CHANNELS"->"WTN" must be set to "ON" Until now only those times were marked with an 't', which were triggered on a hardware channel C0..C8, but when having a WTN only C0..C4 is possible. Only if: "MENU"->"CHANNELS"->"INTERNAL"->"0.1s-CORR" must be set to "-0,1 s" according to each channel. "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"DISPLAY BOARD": "CONTRAST" "TIME+DATE" "TIMEOUT" "ADDRESS" On these 3 items, "ONLY DLINE" is displayed on the lcd. So the user knows undoubtly, that these settings are done at the DLINE and not at the TIMY itself. It was for the user not 100% sure, if these settings are done at the TIMY, at the DLINE or at both. "Timy" and "Timy2": USB: changed from mode 3 to mode 3. The user sees no difference. "MENU"->"CHANNELS"->"PATTERN": Only by pressing the F3-button, any changings are valid. E.g. If C1 is off, then any C1-delay-paket over WTN is completely suppressed. "STOPWATCH": Upon a GSM-connection the finish-bib can also be transmitted. After an update it is default off. It has to be turned on once, and then the settings remain stored after switching the Timy off and on. The user has to send the command: at the transmitter Timy: "SPEC:STOPWATCH:$A1" "SPEC:STOPWATCH:$C1" at the receiver Timy: "SPEC:STOPWATCH:$B1" It is recommanded to send the bib only in one direction: start-bib only from Timy-A to Timy-B, and finish-bib only from Timy-B to Timy-A. The finish-bib can only be accecpted by the receiver Timy, if it is in the normal race-mode, and currently no entering of the bib is active. "GSM-Modem": When the Timy setup a connection with the gsm modem, the Timy does some initializations. Each point of the initializiation can be turned on/off over the menu. Default after an update: Each point is ON. "JUMPING": Pow15, Pow30, Pow60: bug fixed. 13.07.2012 V 1274 ================= "STOPWATCH": WTN: Delayed times for finish-bib, for channel C1..C4 If the delay is more then 0.3s, then it is unvalid, because 90% of all delayed times are in the range 0.2s. "COMMANDER"->"FOOTBALL": On programming of a mask, the menu was added with context messages. "OK" "NOT OK" "PLEASE WAIT" 10.07.2012 V1273 ================ "TENNIS": bug fixed: Sometimes it was not possible to enter the points. Minor correction in the play modes: 3 SET 5 SET UNIVERSAL If the match is finished, the points are not shown on the display board any more. The 2 digits are blank. "SPEED": Settings in "MENU"->"DISPLAY"->"DELAY TIME 1" means: 0s : ==> measuring result is shown continous, until to the next measuring. 1..99s: After the delay times has elapsed, the display baord will be erased once, and not each second. Bringing the advantage, that a DLINE, driven by the Timy, can be used to show the time and temperature. Small correction: If the user does: "MENU"->"CHANNELS"->"TED-RX"->"ON", then the RS23 baudrate is 2400 baud. Then also in "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"RS-232": The entry "BAUDRATE" is deactivated. "STOPWATCH": START-BIB-history: If a delayed time has come over WTN, the start bib will be generarted according to the history. Also for the finishtime there is a FINISH_BIB_history. 02.07.2012 V1271 ================ GPS: 16s Leapseconds from 01.July.2012 29.06.2012 V126C ================ "TRAINING-LIGHT": Bug fixed: Upon Start C0 wrong characters were sent to the display board. "MENU"->"GENERAL"->"GPS LEAPS" The user con set up the GPS leap seconds. But the firmware has still the conrol over the leap seconds. Only possible, if a valid GPS signal is available. The Timy automaticall uses the correct leap seconds in the year 2012 and 2013. "WINDSPEED": If the WINDSPEED is not connected, then after 2-3 s the following were displayed. " Please wait 1 " " Please wait 2 " " Please wait 3 " " No Winspeed " " connected " WTN: unvalid delayed times were not sent to the time memory. WTN is OFF after changing the program. WTN stays ON, when the memory was cleared. WTN is OFF after powering up the Timy. WTN: Receiving delayed times was improved. TIMY2: TRACKTIMER: Standard-Modus bug fixed: Sometimes the runtime was not shown on the display board. If the user presses OKred afer an timimng impulse, and then a second timing impulse has occured, then the Timy could hang up. Timy2 only, On the Timy all ok. "STOPWATCH": Timy to Timy connection: bug fixed: 06.06.2012 V1262 ================ "Timy2" New program: "TV-TIMER" Only channel 0 for start, and channel 1 for finish( channel 1 may occure many times). Timy, Timy2: Switching programs on and off is OK. After an update all programs are on. 29.05.2012 V1254 ZW =================== "STOPWACTH": It is possible to disqualify over RS232/USB by the command: (Only C0 possible). SSTd0003 C0M 11:29:09.67 00 SSTd0003 C0 11:29:09.6712 00 "COMMANDER"->"COUNTDOWN": After an update the default is: Intervall 1: 1 min Intervall 2: 0s Intervall 3: 0s , so only Intervall1 is active. 10.05.2012 V1253 ================ "STOPWATCH": Timy to Timy connection: Some bugs fixed: 1.)myTimy: " 0001 C0..." "c0001 C0..." Connect...==> hang up 2.)myTimy: " 0001 C0..." " 0002 C0..." " 0003 C0..." " 0001 C1..." Now disqualifying 0001: "d0001 C0..." "d0001 C1..." Connect ==> Hang up "SPEED-CLIMBING": false start detection: So far there was a time window of 0.3 s. Now it is possible to set it from 0.01s to 9.99 s. After an update: default 0.3 s. "COMMANDER": "MOTOR-SPORT": display mode: daytime: bug fixed: OK button shall be disabled. "TIMEOUT": bug fixed: The standing time "0:00.0000" was shown instead of a upwards running time in the lcd. It happended on this scenario: CTD-shows 50s C4-> CTD running C4-> CTD timeout C0->Start, time runs upwards. -> "0:00.0000" (bug!) "upwards running time shall be shown" and on this scenario: CTD-shows 50s C4->CTD running C4-CTD tiomeout ->CTD-shows 50s C0->Start, time runs upwards -> "0:00.0000" (bug!) "upwards running time shall be shown" "TIMY": "MENU"->"CHANNELS"->"WTN" Receiveing over WTN can be turned on/off. Coding the channels OK. Assigning BIB is OK. Received WTN-RS485-data packets are marked with an 'x'. "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"DISPLAY BOARD"->"BOARD ON OFF" The interface to the display board can be turned on and off globaly, and will not be stored after switching the Timy off and on again. After switching the Timy on, the displayboard interface is also switche on. 29.03.2012 V1231: ================= "TIMY": RS232: If a command was sent to the Timy, the pc has to wait for the acknowledge of the Timy. After that the pc may send the next command. When the pc sends very many commands in one time, the Timy cannot operate all commands, some command gets lost. But after a few seconds the next command is operated correctly. So if the Timy is getting an overflow of commands, some commands get lost, but the Timy remains in a stable condition. "BACKUP": bug fixes: If auto line feed is graeter 0, and printing memo times is off, then a line feed was printed out on arriving a memotime. That is not allowed and fixed now. "TIMY": Marking a by 0.1s corrected time was changed. until now " 0001 C0T hh:mm:ss..." Now "t0001 C0 hh:mm:ss..." "STOPWATCH": Marking a penatly second was changed: Until now: "i0001 RTP hh:mm:ss..." Now just the finish and run time was cleared, ans marked as an input finish time and as an input runtime. It is the same, as the runtime was edited. "TIMEOUT": bug fixed: LCD: If you create a timeout by C4, or a finish time by C1, then sometimes the stopped time jumps afterwards a bit (less than 1s). "PCTIMER": bug fixed: On the USB in the answer string the live signal was inserted sometimes. 03.02.2012 V1221 ================ "Menu"->"Channels"->"Pattern": small bug fixed. There are 3 use cases: 1.) On an existing GSM or T2T connecntion the channel pattern will be defined on both Timys, and the channels are exclusive to each other. 2.) When building a T2T connection with special channel pattern, and the channels are exclusive to each other. 3.) On a stand alone Timy each channel can be turned on or off. "BACKUP", "PCTIMER": Simplification: Channel 0 can be turned on or off only by the menu, mentioned above. On a mass start by 2nd+CLR or "MENU"->"BACKUP"->"MASS START" it was possible to do that over "MENU"->"BACKUP"->"CHANNEL 0" Timy to Timy connection over GSM or rs232: Also intermediate times (C2..C8) will be transmitted. 27.01.2012 V1219 ================ The format of the date is "YY-MM-DD", if it would have a different format, it will be clearly marked. "GPS": New leap seond Currently we have 15 leap seconds. From 2012 Juli 1, at 00:00:00 h we will have 16 leap seconds. The Timy can automatically check and correct the leap seconds by using this update. 12.01.2012 V1212 ================ "STOPWATCH": Timy to Timy connection over RS23 or GSM: bug fixed: If the user switches to the next heat, then no times were sent. 10.01.2012 V1211 ================ "STOPWATCH": Timy to Timy Connection over RS232: If no timing impulse has happended, a connection control may happen according to the following settings: Interval : default after an update 5s. Answer time : default after an update 1s. The purpose is, to detect a broken line early. If the lines are ok, then at the display top right you see "-><-". If the lines are broken, then "<-->". You can turn off the connection control by setting the value 0 for interval or answer time. Then the arrows top right at the display disappear. You can clear the memory by pressing "MENU"->"GENERAL"->"CLR MEMORY". When connected with an other Timy over GSM or RS232, the memory of the other Timy will also be cleared. But if there are no times in the memory, the command will not be done. When connected with an other Timy over GSM or RS232 then the memory of the other Timy will not be cleared, also if there are timys on that Timy. "Timy2": New program "PARALELL-START": For controlling a start gate for alpine skiing. "SPEED-CLIMBING": Enhancement: It is possible to let start only one singel climber. The bib for the other parcour has to set to 0. "TERMINAL": One possible bug fixed, which can cause malfunction. The LOGO will be always turned on, in order that the timing behavior for all connected Timys in a data chain is equal. 14.10.2011 V11A2 ================ New program for Timy2: "START LINER": For Nordic Combination: Shows on up to 6 boards (19200 Baud) the countdown for the athletes. On each board(address 1 to 6) the BIB and the countdown, starting at 99s to 0s is shown. On a 7th board(not addressed) the daytime is shown. The startlist must be made on a pc and sent to the Timy. "COMMANDER" "FOOTBALL" and "GAELIC FOOTBALL" bug fixed: If TIMEOUT->NO is set, then it is not possible the stop the time by triggering C1/STOP-button. But if the 2nd-button was pressed, then it was possible by triggering C1/STOP-button. But thas is not allowed, since in the menu still TIMEOUT-NO is visible. "LAPTIMER": Enhancement: On the display board also the round will be shown upon a stopped time. The position for the round is at the place, on which the rank normally (2 digits). bug fixed: USB, command "DTP": If you send the command "DTP ?4567890123" over USB , then nothing was printed out. If you send the same command again, then" ?4567890123 ?4567890123" was printed out. "COMMANDER"->"SF3-Extension": The Timy is connected with an SF3 over the rs232 input. and gets from the SF3 its GAZ/DLINE data stream. The Timy can detect a running time or a runtime("A F ..."). The rs232 baudrate ist set automatically to 2400 baud and remains on them. The Timy is connected over the D-OUT with a 6digits DLINED (9600 baud, addressed '0') and a traffic light (9600 baud, addressed '1'). The baudrate for the D-OUT and the rs232 input remains on these values, since these settings are for the whole Timy. When changing the program please take care about these settings. standard: GAZ :2400 baud (also DLINE) RS232:9600 baud. Traffic light: Default after powwering on: GREEN. Start-trigger:(Timy detects a running tenth on the data stream) => Traffic light goes to RED. Finish-trigger:(runtime on the data stream) => Traffic light goes GREEN. On C0 on the Timy a hand button is connecteed. When the hand button was pressed, within the next 10s an arising start will be added to the former runtime, so that you can get a totaltime of two runners. The totaltime is shown on the 6digits Dline(addressed '0'). If a runner doesn't belong to the group, which wants wo have a totaltime, he need not to press the hand button. Then he gets only his runtime. All programs: If the Timy is switched off, and is still having external power supply, then on the display "External power supply" was visible. But now on the "D-OUT" no datas for the display board are sent out _DEBUG_GSM_001 New language: SPANISH "BACKUP": bug fixed: If there were no times in the memory, and over USB the command "PRIM" was sent, then the live-signal on the usb dissapeared. "COMMANDER"->"DISPLAY" The points and colons are cleared by pressing the CLR button. 21.07.2011 V11.71 ================= "STOPWATCH": Printing the start time: At that place also the adjusted number of linefeeds will also printed out. In the "PRINTER-MENU"->"PRINT STARTTIME"->"PRI START ON" and "PRINTER-MENU"->"AUTO LINE FEED" the number can be adjusted. During the MEMO mode an intermediate time can be assigned to a bib. Then this time remains an intermediate time. Until now each time captured in the memo mode was set to an finish time. "TRACKTIMER": If the display delay time is 99s, then the runtime at the GAZ/DLINE will not be switched forward atuomatically. The user has to press the OKred button. In all 4 operation modes, except in the special lane mode. TIMY2: LANE-MODUS: bug fixed: If 2 channels were triggered at the same time, a reset happened. "TERMINAL": Master-Timy waits 1s before making an auto config. "GSM": Initializing was enhanced with some commands: ATE1Q0+IPR=9600 AT&W "BACKUP":bug fixed: RS232 output of times was stopped suddenly. After a "RSM" command all was ok. fixed now. "COMMANDER"->"RALLY-CLOCK": Enhancement: The duration has this format "H:MM:SS" Until now it had "MM:SS". "TIMY2": "WINDSPEED": bug fixed "TIMY2": "TERMINAL" : bug fixed "BACKUP: A rising edge is marked as following: " 1234 C0 12:33:44.445" falling edge " 1234 C0/ 12:34:56.789" rising edge: "COMMANDER"->"DISPLAY" Enhancement: With F0 button between position 2 and 3 With F1 button between position 4 and 5 the user can turn on a point, colon or no point at the DLINE. Program "COMMANDER": New subprogram: "RALLYCLOCK" controls 2 DLINES , addressed with A and B, 1 and 2 DLINE A: Time of day, adjustable DLINE B: time of service (adjustable), then countdown (adjustable), then countup. "TIMY": all programs:Alle Programme: After an update there are the following default settings: precision : 1/100s, BIB automatic for START is: UPWARDS: BIB automativ for FINISH ist MANUALLY "TIMY": all programs: bug fixed: When the baudrate for the DLINE was changed, after switching off and on again, it was still set to 2400 baud. Now fixed. It remains correctly at the changed valud (2400, 4800, 9600 or 19200). Default after an update is 2400. The baudrate is a globale setting valid for the entire device, and cannot be programmed seperately for each program. "COMMANDER"->"COUNTER": A standard DLINE /GAZ with 6 digits shows "MMSSth". So the LEAST DIGIT of the countvalue starts at the 1/100s digit. 1 12 123 1234 12345 123456 In MENU->INTERFACE->DISPLAY BOARD->FORMAT->PLAYTIME the folling is shown: PLAYTIME MM:SS:zh <= Digits of the display board ##:##:## <= countvalue That is also the default setting after an update: The position of the countvalue can be shifted: E.g. you have 3 digit display board, having just "M:SS". Then under MENU->INTERFACE->DISPLAY BOARD->FORMAT->PLAYTIME you can shift that way: PLAYTIME: MM:SS.zh <= Digits of the display board ##:##:## <= countvalue That means the LEAST DIGIT of the countvalue is shown at SEOCNDS-ONE-position. 21.02.2011 V11.28 ================= "PRINTER": bug fixed: When having an erroneous printer condition while powering up the Timy, the Timy could hang up. "BACKUP","PC-TIMER": bug fixed: On the display board the running tenth could jump backward, on an timing impulse. New command: "AST" is only 1 character, Apostrophs are not sent. MENU->INTERFACE->DISPAY BOARD->FORMAT->DAYTIME: With ARROW left and right the daytime can be shifted. Only within this menu the daytime is sent to the GAZ/DLINE. For checking if the setup to GAZ/DLINE is correct. "GSM": Some more improvements, minor bug fixed. Modems: M1306B and MC35 checked:OK, also Connection-Control OK. "DUALTIMER": bug fixed: When MENU->COMMON->YES (common start) the running time and the runtime of the LEFT PARCOUR was wrong. fixed. "TIMY2": "SPEED-CLIMBING": bug fixed: On C4-finish-impulse, the runtime was wrong. fixed. "SPEED": Classement output is possible now. "COMMANDER"->"COUNTUP": By pressing "^+ OK" a START VALUE can be defined. By pressing "OK" a FINISH VALUE can be defined as usually. 27.01.2011 V1119 ================ All programs: During reading out the entire time-memory, some improvements to stabilize was build in. GSM is in the beta-stage, it should not be used. In a short while there will be the next version, in which the GSM is completed. "TRAINING-REF": bug fixed: problem with TED-RX: the warning 001 data bytes, 0 C5-impulse was printed out. bug fixed: reading out the time-memory: When having many times, and the Timy is connected over USB and RS232, then even blocks of times were skiped, on usb all OK. "COMMANDER", "COUNTDOWN": After an update on of these settings are allowed: format "SSSSSS", "HHHH:MM:SS" or "DDDD:HH:MM:SS". PRINTER: minor bug fixed: When the cover is opened, and e.g. the PRI-button was pressed, then in the menu "2nd + PRINTER"->"PRINTER-MODE"->"PRINTER ON" was displayed, now it shows correctly: "PRINTER OFF". When the cover was closed, and the user wants to print out anythin, then the Timy can automatically go on with printing out. bug fixed: If the user was in the program "TRAINING-REF" and he changed to e.g. "STOPWATCH", then gsm-modem didn't worked. "BACKUP","PC-TIMER": max. range can be changed over menu and RS232/USB from 24h to 99h. Default after an update: range is 24 hours as always. "MENU"->"BACKUP"->"RANGE" ->"24 H" ->"99 H" command for RS232/USB: SPEC:BACKUP:R0 R=Range is 24h, after an update, defaulg. SPEC:BACKUP:R1 R=Range is 99h COMMANDER-COUNTDOWN: MINUS-presign during the countdown-stage can be set over menu and RS232/USB (on/off). If the countdown has elapsed, and the times runs upwards, then the minus is off, since the time is positive. Default after an update: MINUS is not shown during countdown stage. "MENU"->"COMMANDER-PROG"->"COUNTDOWN"->"MINUS"->"YES" ->"NO " command for RS232/USB: SPEC:COM:CTD:M0 no MINUS-presign during countdown. SPEC:COM:CTD:M1 MINUS-presign during countdown "BACKUP","PC-TIMER": printing out the memotime: Can be set on/off over menu and RS232/USB: Default after an update: memotome will not be printed out. "MENU"->"BACKUP"->"MEMOTIME"->"NOT PRINT" ->"PRINT" command over RS232/USB: PRMT0 NOT PRINT PRMT1 PRINT PRMT? REQUEST BACKUP: bug fixed: Times went lost, if on all 6 fast external channels (C0 to C5) timing impulses occured with a distance of 50 microsec. "COMMANDER"->"START-DISPLAY": When the stage is halted, with the F3-button the display board can blanked. Pressing F3 again, the former stage can be showed again. "STOPWATCH": A cleared finishtime or runtime becomes 'c', also when it was former an 'i'. An uncleared finishtime or runtime becomes 'i'. enhancement: If a bib has only cleared or unvalid finishtimes (runner still on the way),Wenn eine STN nur geloschte oder ungueltige Zielzeiten hat, (Laeufer immer noch unterwegs), a runtime can be entered on EDIT-RUNTIME, blinking time starts with 00:00:00.0000 memory overrun: SPEED : no hangup BACKUP : ONLINE PK, no time goes lost. On overrun the Timy starts at the beginning of the timememory and overwrites the old times. If the memory is full, and one new time is added, then only one time is in the entire timememory. "COMMANDER"->"COUNTER": Displaying the countervalue start with e.ge.: MMSSzh ###### 1 h 12 zh 123 Szh 1234 SSzh 12345 MSSzh 123456 MMSSzh Before this , it was 2 digits further left. "SWIMTRAINER" Channels 1 to 4 are automatically set to rising and falling edge. Default after an update: channel 0: deadtime is 1s, only falling edge. STARTSOCKET(CH2 and CH4): both edges, which have 0.05 s deadtime TOUCHPAD(CH1 and CH3): falling edge: 1 s deadtime rising edge: 0.3 s deadtime "STOPWATCH": bug fixed: On clearing or unclearing a starttime: Whe a starttime was (un)cleared by "0..9", "OKgreen" and then by "CLR", "OKgreen", then at the startwindow still "u 123" was shown (e.g. bib is 123), but it shall show "^ 123" (5 digits). TIMY2: "SPEED-CLIMBING": bug fixed: display on the timy: now : "LEFT RIGHT" former: "RIGHT RIGHT" (wrong) TIMY: bug fixed: In "MENU"->"GENERAL"->"PROGS ON OFF" also "SPEED-CLIMBING" was dispayed in weak letters. Onyl in Timy2 this shall be visible. In "COMMANDER" there is a new program: "DISPLAY" For contolling a 6digits display board. The displayed valus grows from right to left. buttons: 0..9 : adding a new digitfrom 0..9 F0,F1,F2,ARROW-LEFT : adding a blank PFEIL_RIGHT : shifting all 1 digit to right OKred,OKgreen : sending to the display board. F3,CLR : blank the displayboard and the lcd-dispay to "------" "2nd" + "ARROW UP, DOWN" : Set the adress from 0 to L+. "TIMY2": LCD-backlight when working onyl with batteries. If the batteries goes waek, the backlight will be switched off. bug fixed: It was possible to chooes also LANGUAGE = FINNISH, although it was not programmed. 05.11.2010 V10B2 ================ The deviation is no longer stored as ppm, but as s/h in the EEPROM. V10B2 can automatically correct it, if from V1071 or V10B1 was updatet to V10B2. 03.11.2010 V10B1 ================ "SWIM-TRAINER": Only at start for 0.5 s a 400Hz-signal sounded. If the other channels were triggered only a beep sounded not a horn, as usually. "TIMY": calibration check: deviation is shown in s/h, e.g. after 1 hour: deviation = +0.0003 s/h. Menu->Channels->Pattern: If two Timys are linked over rs232, then the channel pattern will be defined. If the Timy is alone, single channels are permanently locked. Menu->Interface->RS232->Timy to Timy: ->NO (disconnect and all channels enabled) ->YES + C0 ->YES + C1..8 ->YES ->Channel Pattern: After powering on all 4 lines are enabled. When linked to an other Timy over rs232, only the first line is enabled, the other are disabled. "STOPWATCH": Timy2Timy over RS232: Sometimes wrong times appeared, now the times are secured with CRC16 checksum. bug fixed: Also channel 5 can be received, when a TED-RX (BCD-switch:0, HEX-switch:0) is connected to the Timy over cabel 207. (TED-TX: BCD-Switch:5 , HEX-Switch:x) "CYCLESTART": bug fixed: When the countdown has elapsed, the 800Hz-signal sounded twice, now only once. "COMMANDER"->"COUNTDOWN": In the mode "HALT and RESET" can a running countdown be reset by triggering channel 2. "SPEED-CLIMBING": ONLY TIMY 2 The watching time window for a false start is < 0,3 s. If a false start was detected, 3 times 0.5s PAUSE, 0.5s BEEP sounded. A false start is shown at the display board with " FS ". false-start: C2 or C5 prior to C0 In case of a false start, the finish channel is disabled for the this side of the parcour. At the printing out no BIB is printed at the start-time. Each other time has a BIB without prezeroes. false start: daytime and netto time: either: "*NNNNb -1.234" <= false start or " NNNNb +1.234" <= no false start "SPEED": When the display delay time is defined, the display board and the Timy display were blanked when the max. measuring time was exceeded, regardles the distance. "MENU": "PRINTER"->"OFF" Printer off, Timing impulses are not printed out. After turning "ON", the timing impulses weren not printed out afterwards. DTP-comands are not done, and after turning "ON" not printed out afterwards. ->"ON " Printer on, timing impulese are printed out So are DTP-commands. ->"PAUSE" Printer off, timing impulses are not printed out. so are DTP-commands. But after turning "ON" only the timing impulses are printed out afterwards. Commands for RS232/USB: "PRINTER0"->"OFF", Internally also a "PRIIGN1" is done. "PRINTER1"->"ON", Internally also a "PRIIGN0" is done. "PRINTER2"->"PAUSE", Internally also a "PRIIGN0" is done. "MOTOR-SPORT": After an update is this fucntion default turned off. TIMY2: LCD-backlight: MENU->DISPLAY->BACKLIGHT: 3 modes: "ENERGIY-SAVE" <== default after an update "ON " "AUTOMATIC " If there is an external power supply now we are having 6 cases: BATTERY EXT.SUPPLY ENERGY-SAVE OFF FULL BRIGHTNESS ON WEAK FULL BRIGHTNESS AUTOMATIC WEAK FULL BRIGHTNESS for 5s at key presss or timing impulse "CONCENTRATION CLOCK": At address 0, then the countdown value is sent immediately to the display board. "MOTOR-SPORT"->"Daytime-Mode": In the MENU->INTERFACE->DISPLAY-BOARD->FORMAT->DAYTIME the user can shift the position of the daytime for showing at the board to the right or to the left. After an update the position is in the middle by default. For a 6 digit board it ist "HH:MM:SS". "CONCENTRATION CLOCK": In the MENU->INTERFACE->DISPLAY-BOARD->FORMAT->PLAYTIME the user can shift the position of the countdown time for showing at the board to the right or to the left. After an update the position is in the middle by default. For a 6 digit board it ist "MM:SS.zh". The two function above are available in each program, but only used in the two programs, mentioned above. "SPEED: When reaching a defined level, the horn sounds for 3 seconds with 800 Hz. If the beep is switched off by menu, also the 800 Hz signal is switched off. "TIMY" und "TIMY2": The value of the deviaton can be cleared by pressing 2nd-CLR , will be stored in the EEPROM. "STOPWATCH": fixed: now only once per second the time string is sent to the DOUT(Display board Out) Until now it was sent 10 times per second, despite the output string has altered only with the seconds. A minimum runtime for the finish-time can be defined. default is 0.0 s after an update. "COMMANDER"->"CONCENTRATION": The interval range was expanded from 9:59 (m:ss) to 99:59 (mm:ss). "PARALLEL-SLALOM": is renamed to "PARALLEL-DIFF". 20.07.2010 V1071 ================ "INFO-MENU": When the second toggles, the HW-SN and, if existing, the serial number is shown. "STOPWATCH": #define enabled see at stopL.c at 07.07.2010 During a Timy<-->Timy connection over RS232 also the runtime is sent to the usb. 05.07.2010 ========== "TRACKTIMER": bug fixed in the special-mode: If bib=1 has all competiter in the finish, the bib has jumped to 3 instead of 2. Automatic switch: display is calmer. "STOPWATCH": bug fixed: An deleted finish-time( also runtime) can also undeleted in the finish-time-edit-mode. Until now this could be only done in the NORM-race-mode with UNCLR (2nd+CLR) + OKred. 02.07.2010 V1067 K:intern ========================= "TRACKTIMER" Special-LANE-Mode: bug fixed. 30.06.2010 V1066 ================ "PCTIMER": "HELP"-command, bug fixed, 18.06.2010 V1064 regular version 18.06.2010 V1063 special version: _KUNDE_ (0) ================ Timy2:Levels "+4.0 <==> +6.0" Timy :Levels "-2.0 <==> +1.0" 10.06.2010 V1061 ================ "TRAINING LIGHT": bug fixed: When having ca. 12000 times, a watchog can happen, if a new bib was enterd with OK. "DUALTIMER": The notation of the parcours can be choosen as follows: "LEFT RIGHT" "BLUE RED" "BLUE GREEN" "TRACKTIMER": second-mode can be turned off and on in all kond of mmodes. "TRACKTIMER": When changing from LANE-speical mode into the regular LAN-mode, the F3-button for entering the number of lanes was turned off. "BACKUP": bug fixed: reading out the memory when having many times (1800) didn't work. bug fixed: CLASSEMENT:ALL: on rs232 and printer the Classement-Information were not printed out. "JUMPING": bug fixes: default after an update: Deadtime was 1.0s instead of 0.1s . 20.05.2010 V1051 ================ New program : "JUMPING" measures the height of an jump by means of a contact mat. You have to use a contact mat, connected to the external channel 0 of the Timy. For testing please use the external channel 0. After starting the programm you have to choose the jumping mode with the funcion buttons F0,F1,F2,F3. According to the athletics standard there are the following jumping modes: Squat Jump: Athlet starts ON THE MAT. Upper and lower leg are in a 90 degree angle. Hands on the hips. Timy measures the fly time. Counter Movement Jump: Athlet starts ON THE MAT. Athlet may go deeper with using his arms to support the jump. Timy measures the fly time. Drop Jump: Athlet starts on a socket OFF THE MAT and jumps down on the mat. Timy measures the contact time and the fly time. Power Test 15s, 30s and 60s Athlet starts ON THE MAT and jumps as often as he can until the interval is elapsed. Timy measures the fly time and the contact time between each jump. All results are printed out and sent out to the rs232 /usb and are available also afterwards. You can use a standard 6 digits display board. Default: display delay time 3s. (can be changed) startnumber automatic = count up, can not be changed. Channel 0. both edges sensitive delay time for each edge = 0.1s TIMY: The settings for baudrate and display-mode of the DLINE and the Timy were improved. "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"ANZEIGETAFEL": 30.04.2010 V 1044 ================= program "COMMANDER": New subprogram: "RACE DISPLAY" Traffic light with RED, GREEN and 2 digits for seonds. F3 button => display goes BLANK. 31.03.2010 V 1031 K:J ================= "STOPWATCH" : extension at "EDIT FINISH-time": Also an unvalid finishtime can be taken for a valid one, if afterwards a start-time will be entered. e.g. stop-impulse at C1 at BIB=1, and no startime existing yet => unvalid. "?0001 C1 hh:mm:ss.ffff 00" The user enters for BIB = 1 a start-time in the edit-mode. "i0001 C0 hh:mm:ss.ffff 00" Then the unvalid finish-time will be taken as for an valid in the edit-finish-time-mode: That was not possible until now. #define _QUICK_JUSKO_TEMP danach gleich wieder entfernt. RESERVE:0x8d0c0-0x8d0cf,0xC0000-0x1e0000 == almost 2 MBYTE USER_FILE Options Target: External Memory #1:ROM Start:0x10200 Size:0x1EFE00 RESERVE:0x8d0c0-0x8d0cf,0xC0000-0x2e0000 == almost 3 MBYTE USER_FILE Options Target: External Memory #1:ROM Start:0x10200 Size:0x2EFE00 RT and TT to USB, during a TIMY-TIMY-RS232-connection different sequence: first RT, TT, and later C1, which is not the same until now. #define _QUICK_JUSKO_TEMP "TIMY2": NMI bug fixed. 22.02.2010 V 102C ================= "TERMINAL": bug fixed "Info-Menu": If CTS=1, then CTW is shown on the Timy display. IF CTS=0, then nothing is shown. As USB and EXP=external power supply. "TRACKTIMER": bug fixed. A started run, can be reset by the CLR-button. But if 2nd+CLR was pressed, a disply bug occured. fixed. "STOPWATCH": Now the user can CLEAR and UNCLEAR a timy through 2 ways: 1.) As before: Stn OKred, then CLR OKred 2.) New: CLR Stn OKred The same is for OKgreen. 02.02.2010 V 1021 ================= "STOPWATCH": "TIMY to TIMY" Connection over gsm modem: After having connected a separation of the channels is recommanded: "MENU"->"CHANNELS"->"CHANNEL-PATTERN" If this is not done, then at both Timys all channels are enabled. The channel, which is ON at myTimy is OFF at exTimy and vica verse. It is recommanded, that one Timy is for Starts and the other for the Finishes. After "MENU"-"INTERFACE"->"GSM"->"DISCONNECT" at both Timys all channels are enabled. Note: If the "Timy to Timy" cable was removed, or the gsm net has no signal strength, or the gsm connection was disconnected deliberately or not deliberately, then the Timys are able to DATA-resnchronize after a new reconnect (replug in) automatically. That means, not yet sent timing impulses will be sent afterwards. If a modem was removed or disconnected, then the Timy looks every 5s if the modem is here again. If the user wants the Timy to sopt this, he can do it by "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"GSM-MODEM"->"STOP GSM-MODEM". Otherwise the Timy continues the modem search. "STOPWATCH": "TIMY to TIMY" Connection over RS23-cable: It is possibel the setup a connection with predefined channel seperation: "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"RS-232"->"TIMY<--TIMY": "NO " : to disconnect, at both Timys all channels are enabled. "YES + C0" : Connect: myTimy:C0=ON,rest=OFF; exTimy:C0=OFF,rest=ON "YES + C1-8": Connect: myTimy:C0=OFF,rest=ON; exTimy:C0=ON,rest=OFF "YES" : Connect: The channels are defined as set in "CHANNEL-PATTERN". Also at an already built up connection, the user can define the channels. "MENU"->"CHANNELS"->"CHANNEL-PATTERN" The channel, which is ON at myTimy is OFF at exTimy and vica verse. If a rs232-connection was disconnected deliberately, then after a new connect the timing impulses will NOT be RESENT, because it was supposed, that the "Timy to Timy" connection was ended in order to connect the Timy with an other device. (pc = default, or TED-RX) Note: If the "Timy to Timy" cable was removed, then the Timys can DATA-resyncronize themselves after reconnect. "TIMY" Daytime and date syncronization: At least the year 2010 is suggested by the Timy. 07.12.2009 V 09B7 ================= "TIMEOUT": second-mode can be turned on and off by "MENU"->"GENERAL"->"SECOND-MODE" 04.12.2009 V 09B6 ================= "TIMEOUT": second-mode not finished yet. "COMMANDER"->"STARDISPLAY": All intervall-times for the stages RED,MIN-YELLOW,GREEN will be shown on the Timy-display. "STOPWATCH": Timy to Timy connection over RS232: DATA-Reysync after reconnect. _RX_ONLY_485 added 24.11.2009 V 09B5 ================= "COMMANDER"->"STARTDISPLAY": All intervall-times for the stages RED,YELLOW,GREEN will be shown on the Timy-display. Two new commands for the program "STOPWATCH". See at V 09B2. 11.11.2009 V 09B2 ================= "BACKUP": Rounding an prezision takes effect on lcd. display board, printer and rs232/usb. Internally the full prezision is stored, only the output is done accordingly the settings above. After an update the preszision is on 1/10000s and the rounding is on "CUT". "STOPWATCH": When the user swichtes to the 2. HEAT with "NEXT"->"STARTNUMBER", all runners with an finish-time will be taken sorted to the 2. HEAT. smallest bib first, largest bib last. With OKgrenn can be stepped upwards or with "2nd"+OKgreen downwards within the list. If the user enters a new start-bib with 0..9+OKgreen, then only one step +1 is used. But as a start-bib from the list is detected, then only within the list will be stepped further. Command to read out the memory: --------------------------------- "RSUA" All times with the and their bib is from STNstart inkl. to STNend inkl., will be sent to the RS232/USB. : '0'..'8' or 'A' for all : 4 digits "0000".."9999" : 4 digtis "0000".."9999" "RSUA000010010" All times with BIB >= 0001 and BIB <= 0010, which have channel 0, will be sent to rs232/usb. "RSUAA01002350" All times(A=All) with BIB >= 100 and BIB <=2350 will be sent to rs232/usb. ----------------------------------------------- "RSUB" All times with the and their daytime is from Daytime_start inkl. to Daytime_end inkl., will be sent to the RS232/USB. '0'..'8' or 'A' for all : Format Daytime : Format Daytime "RSUBA00:00:00.000022:33:44.5678" All times (A) having daytime >= 00:00:00.0000 and <= 22:33:44.5678, will be sent to rs232/usb. "RSUB100:30:00.000012:00:00.0000" All times, which have channel 1, and the daytime >= 00:30:00.0000 and <= 12:00:00.0000, will be sent to rs232/usb. "SPEED": Only channel 0 and 1 will be user for speed-measuring. All other channels generate a daytime like the program "BACKUP" and it will be sent out to RS232/USB and printer. 23.10.2009 V 09A9 ================= "STOPWATCH": TIMY to TIMY-connection over rs232: It is posssible to send the start-bib and the finish-bib. But after an update these features are switched off. First they must be switched on, only over rs232/usb possible not by menu. Example 1 : Timy1 sends the start-bib to Timy2 ---------------------------------------------- Timy1:sends START-BIB SPEC:STOPWATCH:$A1 Timy can send START-BIB (to the pc an rs232) SPEC:STOPWATCH:$C1 Timy can send START-BIB also over an Timy2Timy-connection. Timy2:accepts START-BIB from Timy1 SPEC:STOPWATCH:$B1 Timy accepts the receivings from START-BIBs Example 2 : Timy2 sends FINISH-BIB to Timy1 -------------------------------------------- Timy2:sends FINISH-BIB SPEC:STOPWATCH:$C2 Timy can send FINISH-BIB also over an Timy2Timy-connection. Timy1:accepts FINISH-BIBs from Timy2 SPEC:STOPWATCH:$B2 Timy accepts the receivings from FINISH-BIBs Pay attention to the exact configuration: It is rcommanded that onlyl Timy1 may send START-BIBs, Timy only FINISH-BIB. In order that e.g. FINISH-BIBs can be controlled only from one place(one person). Timy 1 will be controlled by person 1 at the start. Only person 1 shall controll the START-BIB, which is on Timy1 and Timy2. The same rule is valid for person 2 , who only controlls the FINISH-BIBs on both Timys. Currently no feedback for acknowlege is used. Only tested with rs232-cable, not yet with radio modems or gsm-modems. Summary of the commands: // command "SPEC:STOPWATCH:$A0" START-BIB will not be sent, default after an update // command "SPEC:STOPWATCH:$A1" START-BIB will be sent with "s1234\r" to rs232 and to usb. // TIMY to TIMY over RS232 // command "SPEC:STOPWATCH:$B0" 0 == default:not bib is accepted over an TIMY2TIMY-connection // command "SPEC:STOPWATCH:$B1" 1 == START-BIB is accepted, in the format "#1234C0\r" // command "SPEC:STOPWATCH:$B2" 2 == FINISH-BIB is accepted, in the format "#1234C1\r" // command "SPEC:STOPWATCH:$B3" 3 == START+FINISH BIB both are accepted // TIMY to TIMY over RS232 // command "SPEC:STOPWATCH:$C0" 0 == default:no bib will be sent // command "SPEC:STOPWATCH:$C1" 1 == START-BIB will be sent, but once "SPEC:STOPWATCH:$A1" must be sent to this Timy( over usb). // command "SPEC:STOPWATCH:$C2" 2 == FINISH-BIB will be sent // command "SPEC:STOPWATCH:$C3" 3 == START+FINISH BIB both will be sent. // But the start-bib will only be sent, if the command was sent to the Timy once in advance "SPEC:STOPWATCH:$A1" After an update the baudrate is set to 9600. "TERMINAL": minor modification for numbering the slaves, when pressing the OK-button. bug fixed: sometimes the number was not stored. "COMMANDER": COUNTDOWN, COUNTUP: Anzeigeformat "MM:SS + SIGNAL" Die Dauer des SIGNALS "BEACON" ist nicht mehr auf 5s fixiert, sondern variabel von 1 bis 10s einstellbar. "BEACON": An Position 20:BLANK=AUS,'1'=EIN. 14.10.2009 V 09A1 ================= "PC-TIMER": bug fixed: USB sometimes some times were not transmitted online bug fixed: USB: When the menu-button was pressed, the 10Hz-live-signal could stumble on the usb-channel. "STOPWATCH": bug fixed: At this sequence: Start, IT1, MEMO-Mode, C1 generates MEMO-time, by 0..9 and OK a bib assigned ==> Assignment denied. In this version, the assignment is not denied, but correctly accepted. 06.10.2009 V 0997 ================= "COMMANDER": "COUNTDOWN" and "COUNTUP" There's a 4th display format "MM:SS+SIGNAL", where the signal is a red/green led display and a orange rotation bacon. "STOPWATCH": bug fixed: Timy to Timy connection: When a intermediate time was generated, a transmission bug happened. "PC-TIMER": In all 3 display modes the printer-menu can be called by "2nd"+"PRI". 24.09.2009 V 0995 ================= "STOPWATCH": When a start-, finish- or runtime is to be copied, the the bib of the original and target has to be different. 21.09.2009 V 0993 ================= "COMMANDER", "COUNTDOWN": bug fixed If the user enters the intervall in the menu, just a zero-value could be seen. Now the correct value can be seen. "COMMANDER", "COUNTER": If the value zero has reached, then channel 3 is pulled down to LOW. If a value is enterd by OKred or OKgreen, then channel 3 goes to LOW in case of zero, otherwise to HIGH. If the counter is abated by OKred or channel 1,then channel 3 is pulled to LOW in case of zero. If the counter is further abated, (the max. value 999999999 appears), then channel 3 remains LOW. If the couner is incremented by OKgreen or channel 0 then channel 3 is pulled to LOW in case of zero, but if it is further incremented, then channel 3 goes back to HIGH. "TRACKTIMER": For sending the datas to RS232/USB port now 3 settings are possible, which can be seen under "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"RS232"->"TRACK-MODUS": ->"NORM" as before ->"IDENT" as before ->"STANDARD" New: The datas looks always (ONLINE and RSM-command) like this: " 0001 C0M 12:07:30.03 00" The start-time has always a 00 at the end " 0001 c0M 00:00:02.22 01" counts how many times channel was triggered. " 0001 c0M 00:00:03.56 02" " 0001 c0M 00:00:06.52 03" That way, it can be quickly seen, how many times a channel was triggered. At the ONLINE mode always a "n0002","MRFLUGSCHANZE557" the user can define a special input mask for ski-jumping with max. values for FL(FLIGHT), LA(LANDING) and OU(OUT). F5=7,LA=5,OU=7 max. values The Timy only checks if the 3 digits prior to the comma are >= '0 und <= '9' sind. After the comma only 0 or 5 are possible. CLR: During an input (cursor is blinking) ==> One digit back. When the input is finished(cursor is not blinking), that means already sent with the OK-button ==> All input fields (FL, LA, OU) will be cleared, and the cursor will blink on the FL-field Also a data packet e.g. "A 999999" or "01 999999" will be sent to the pc, to tell the pc-software a judge is correcting his rating and will send it again. BEEP: If the datas were sent with the ok button a beep of 0.2 s sounds. BIB: Can only be sent by the pc-program, when received from the Timy a beep of 0.5 s sounds, to get the focus of the judge. Only if a bib is present, the judge can enter his rating, otherwise (double beep) BIB must be sent with "TERFFT4E123" or "MRT4E123" line 4, pos E, then 3 digits BLANKS are allowed e.g. "MRT4E 23". "COMMANDER"->COUNTDOWN" Format DDDD:HH:MM:SS bug fixed: Also th digit of tousands will be sent to the display board. "WINDSPEED": If the windspeed is disconnected from the Timy, after a fes seconds on the display appears "--.- m/s" and on the display board "---", which means no data available. "BACKUP": If in the MEMO-mode a time is assigned to a bib, then it will be also marked with *, if the setting "STN*"->"YES". "GPS": The Timy knows how many leap-seconds should be currently. In the year 2009 they are at least 15 seconds. If the timy detects that the gps-device sends a lower value, the Timy can automatically correct the gps-sync-daytime. If the gps-device sends a greater value, it will be stored in the EEPROM. But in case of adding a new leap second, it can be detected only if the Timy has a good signal for at least 15 minutes. Or the user makes a Timy-update, in the update there is the topical value for the leap seconds. UTC-timezone can be set from -12 hours in 30 minutes steps up to + 13 hours. New zealand has timezone + 12 hours, in the summmertime + 13 hours. "BACKUP" can send SMS in the first draft. "BACKUP", "STOPWATCH": A cleared MEMO time is marked with a large 'C' at the beginning of the time-string. A cleared time, which was generated not in the MEMO mode is still marked with a small 'c' as before. "STOPWATCH:" With the following command(s) the user can: 123456789012345678901234567890 SST 1234 C0 12:34:56.7890 00 input a starttime eingeben <== Until now only this command was possible. SSTc1234 C0 12:34:56.7890 00 clear a starttime SST 1234 C1 12:34:56.7890 00 input a finishtime SSTc1234 C1 12:34:56.7890 00 clear a finishtime "STOPWATCH": Timy-Timy-connection over serial RS232 cable: If the user build up or disconnect over "Menu"->"Interface"->"Timy<-->Timy"->"NO" "YES" a connection, then a state-message at the lowest display line is visible. It is also possible to get the entire memory over USB with the "RSM" command. "TRACKTIMER": bug fixed: If all display boards were cleared, then on the DLINES only the digits but not the points were cleared. "SPEED": bug fixed: Sometimes a measuring was not done correctly. Extension: Alwys all timing impulses were sent to the printer and to the RS232/USB, in order to show all activities. Until now only the vaild timing impulses were sent. By pressing the CLEAR- button a started measuring can be reset. The display and the display board wilb e claered. bug fixed: When the user wants to input the max. or min speed in the menu, and he leaves the menu with the "ARROW LEFT" button, then he was errously in the main-menu instead of being in the speed menu. 24.04.2009 V 0944 ================= GSM-function enabled. SMS-function not enabled GPS-synronization was improved: At powrering up the Timy detects automatically if there are some datas at the serial port. Then the Timy assumes that a GPS-device is connected, and swithes his own baud rate to 9600 baud. After or in case of an cancelled synchronization the bausrate will be set to the former one. After a successful synchronization, the Timy checks 3 further data and signal packet from the GPS-device. Using the GPS18xLVC-decive in the year 2009 the synchronizatisation is garantued. The Timy itself checks if the leap-seconds are OK. Therefore at least every 18 months an update is necessary. If the update was not done, the user has to wait for at least 13 min valid datas, before he may synchronize. Each half year appears a new edition of the bulletin C of the IERS Central Bureau, which announce the current number of leap-seconds. e.g. since 1.1.2009 00:00 there are 15 leap seconds, which is valid for the entire year 2009. New program: "COMMANDER"->"MOTORSPORT"->"COUNTER": "SPEED": bug fixed: At the display board the digit of hundret of the bib was always 0. New command: Asking the Timy, which is the current active program: "PROG?" answer: "PROG: Name" "PROG: ---" "PROG: COMMANDER,SUB:SubName" The length of the name may differ. If no program was choosen yet, 3 minus characters appears. In case of COMMANDER, also the SubName appears, which can have different length. "TERMINAL": When no slaves were connected, and after the enumeration the menu-button was pressed twice, the display was cleared. Now the display shows "TIMY OK" "NO SLAVES". bug fixed: "MENU"->"GENERAL"->"STANDARD": The message "CHANNEL 0..8:TED no " will not be printed out. New program: "COMMANDER"->"TURNSTILE" 1 counter subtracting 1 counter subtracting 1 counter adding, seasoncounter and daycounter not affected 1 counter adding, seasoncounter and daycounter not affected 1 CLR-input : counter cleared and output C0 locked 1 RESET-input: counter restet to startvalue and output C0 unlocked 1 output: C0 lock or unlock display board : 3 digits and signal RED/GREEN "SPEED" bug fixed: Speed min. and Speed max. were calculated wrongly. "TRAINING-REF": bug fixed: printer said "WARNING:001 data byte(s), 0 C5 impulses" This message appeared, when within the deadtime a second impulse was triggered on the same channel. 18.12.2008 V 08C1 ================= TIMY:The external channels C0 to C5 can be set to trigger on falling( as before) or rising edge. You can define a deadtime for the falling edge, and you can define for the rising edge an own deadtime. Deadtime can be set seperately for each edge. If the user changes the edge, then the deadtime may change also. It is not possible the an external channel C0 to C5 can measure both edges. 18.11.2009 V 089C ================= "STOPWATCH": bug fixed: Next heat, BIBO = 30, If the runtimes have tie(s). After switching off and on again, it was not possible to choose the heat. Only after switching to the program, the user could switch to the next heat. "BACKUP": Minor display bug fixed.(Bib STN lag behind at 1 ) 11.11.2008 V 089B ================= Will not be published, waiting for feedback to correct any (minor) bugs. "PRINTER": Only by the pc the Timy can be switched to ignore all timing impulses. If the user looks at the display on the Timy and go into the printer-menu, he will see that the printer is still on. But the user can still send any text to the printer by "DTP". If the user wants the Timy to print all timing impulses, arriving from now on, then you can send the specific command. But if the user doesn't do so, the Timy-printer still ignores all timing-impulses. Switching the Timy-printer to ignore all timing-impulses : Only by pc-command "PRIIGN1" to print out all timing-impulses: By pc-command "PRIIGN0" or by "MENU"->"PRINTER"->"MODE"->"ON" First the user must switch the Timy-printer on before printing out the memory/clasement. The Timy doesn't this automatically. After an update "PRIIGN" is set to 0, all times will be printed out. "BACKUP", "PC-TIMER": Through "MENU"->"BACKUP" ->"TIME-WINDOW" or "MENU"->"PC-TIMER"->"TIME-WINDOW" the time can be definde, in which all arriving time-measuring impulses have the same bib. range is from 0.0s up to 10.0s (0.0s = deactivated). After an update the time-window is deactivated (set to 0.0s). bug fixed: NETTO-time will correctly be calculated in case of midnicht-overrun. TRACKTIMER, TRAINING-LIGHT, TRAINING-REF, STOPWATCH TIMEOUT SPEED LAPTIMER "TIMY: Aftert an update the external channels C0 to C5 are set to falling edge. The channels C0 to C5 can also be set to rising edge and even to detect both edges. This feature, is not completely programmed yet. 06.11.2008 V 0898 ================= "COMANDER"->"START-DISPLAY": Beep only at START (C0) or STOP (C1) or if the min YELLO TIME has elapsed. If during the "MIN YELLOW TIME" the START was pressed, then on the GREEN-area in the display a "X" will be drawn, on order to show the customer that the GREEN-stage will come automatically. "GPS": If the Timy has an external power supplay, the Timy will make a reset, in case of an unsuccessfully synchrization. If the Timy works only with batteries, the GPS-device will be turned off and on again. 21.10.2008 ========== "COMMANDER" "START DISPLAY": bug fixed: If the "YELLO" stage was set to count up, the following GREEN-stage has also counted up. But the GREEN-stage may only count down. 21.10.2008 V 0897 ================= _DISABLE_ALL_CHANNELS : Ted_rx_on considered => C5 still enabled. "COMMANDER" "START DISPLAY": bug fixed: 17.10.2008 V 0896 ================= "TIMY": bug fixed: If the TED-RX was turned off with "MENU"->"CHANNELS"->"TED-RX"->"OFF", then the command "PRINTER0" didn't worked any longer. "SPEED": bug fixed: If a TED-RX was connected to the Timy, then the error-message "WARNING:001 data byte(s) , 0 C5 impulses" was printed out. "COMMANDER" "START DISPLAY": It is possible to define a "MIN YELLOW TIME". After the change from RED to YELLOE a min time has to elapse, before the GREEN-stage could begin. If the user has pressed the START-button (or C0) within the min YELLOW-stage, then the Timy doesn't change to the GRENN-stage, but only after the "MIN YELLOW-TIME" has elapsed. "MENU"->"COMMANDER-PROG"->"START-DISPLAY"->"TIME"-> "TIME RED" "TIME YELLOW" "TIME GREEN" "TIME YELL MIN" <-- min yellow time can be defined here. If the "TIME YELLOW" is zero, then "TIME YELL MIN" has no effect. If "TIME YELLOW" is lower than "TIME YELL MIN" then, "TIME YELL MIN" has also no effect. 15.10.2008 V 0895 ================= "TIMEOUT" : 1. version for the customers. 24.09.2008 ========== "WINDSPEED": If a e.g. 5s measuring is running, and the delay-time is 20s, then the result will be shown at the GAZ/DLINE for 20s, and then the GAZ/DLINE will be erased. But if the user switches to norm-mode during the delay-time, then the GAZ/DLINE will show immeditaly the new values. 22.09.2008 V 0892 ================= "STOPWATCH": bug fixed: After the synchronization, a reset happened. "SPEED" The min. and max. speed can be set with one tenth resolution. The min. speed can have the value 0,1. Through RS232 or USB it can be set without a tenth, but the response in case of a request is always with tenth. Command: "SPMI0010" or "SPMI0010.0 Request: "SPMI0010.0" The same for "SPMX". 15.09.2008 ========== "GPS" Improvement If the user configueres the GPS-device with "Menu"->"General"->"GPS"->"GPS35" "Menu"->"General"->"GPS"->"GPS18" "Menu"->"General"->"GPS"->"TEST" then the result can be seen sooner, and at the lowest display line a "progress line" can be seen according to the amount of received bytes from the GPS-device. With "ARROW UP" and "ARROW DOWN" the scaling factor can be set from 1 to 10. Default is 10. 12.09.2008 V 0891 ================= "GPS" bug fixed of the GPS35-device (Garmin): A GPS35-device can be configured through the menu, that ist sends a datastring to the Timy, which can be checked by the Timy, if it is correct and can be corrected if necessary. According to the manufacturers manual the GPS35 sends correct datas. But after some investigations it was clear that the GPS35 sends not cerrect datas sometime, deviations is exactly 14s. This is an bug, caused by the manufacturer. On the GPS18-device, this bug doesn't happen. So if an user possesses a GPS35, he has to press: "Menu"->"General"->"GPS"->"GPS35" Then after some seconds, the letters "GPS OK" starts to flash. 05.09.2008 V 0886 ================= "STOPWATCH" bug fiexed: If the very first bib has started, and then the startime bill be cleared, then ==> Timy makes a reset. If the very first bib will be disqualified, tehn ==> Timy makes a reset. 03.09.2008 V 0885 Intermediate version ====================================== "TIMY": After an update all stored times will be cleared. "STOPWATCH": bug fixed: Sometimes the GAZ/DLINE was off. bug fixed: If an update was done, the Timy asks if the times shall be saved or cleared. If the user saves them, "TIMES SAVES appeares on the display, but they can not be accessed. "BACKUP" bug fixed: If channel C0 and C1 are connected, and the C0 triggers, then 2 time measuring impulses are generated. In the display the first will not be shown with the full prezision, but the second will do so. 29.08.2008 V 0884 ================= "TRACKTIMER": display bug fiexed: If the user chooses "STANDARD"-mode 2 times in succession, and presses then the "ARROW DONW", then a display bug happens. "WINDSPEED": The inscriptionl for the menu for Windspeed was improved: "MENU"->"WS NORM MODE"->"BOEARD OFF" ->"BOARD ON" before->"WINDSPEED GAZ"->"OFF" ->"ON" "SPEED": If a DLINE was connected, during the mearuring it went to BLANK. But a GAZ went to "--.--". Now a GAZ/DLINE goes to " -.--" always. Rise-detection for channels C6 to C8 was completely removed. 27.08.2008 V 0883 Intermediate version ====================================== "STOPWATCH" Penalty points, testversion. 21.08.2008 V 0881 ================= "TRAINING REF": After powering up, the menu appears, which allows the user to choose a new ref-run. If a rer-run already exists, it will be printed out. That way the user can decide if he wants to create a new ref-run by pressing OK, or if he wants to work with the former one, by leaving the menu (by pressing "Menu"-button). 16.07.2008 V 0871 ================= "STOPWATCH": Ausgabe auf GAZ erfolgt im exakten Sekundenwechsel. Detto fuer die Anzeige im Zielfenster des Timy-Displays. "TIMEOUT": New program: Not completely finished. Many infos on the printer. 09.07.2008 ========== "DUALTIMER" : Also second-mode possible "COMMANDER" "Football": It is for the user not possible to choose "MENU"->"COMMANDER-PROG"->"FOOTBALL"->"SETUP MASK". Program "COMMANDER" "Countdown": #define _MARTIN_FLICK ================================= 04.06.2008 ========== "GPS": In case of a not completely successfully synchronization, the Timy makes a reset. The user has to repeat the synchronization. 29.04.2008 ========== "COMMANDER", "COUNTDOWN": "COUNTUP": In "MENU"->"COMMANDER-PROG"->"COUNTDOWN"->"IF ELAPSED" ->"CIRCLE" ->"STOP AT 0" => will be replaced by "STOP" ->"STOP RESET" ->"COUNT UP" 28.04.2008 V 083B ================= "TRACKTIMER", LANE-MODE: The number of akctive lanes can be set. Then only one level (stage) is active, that means echa lane can generate onyl one impulse. Then onyl if the last lane was triggered and its delay-time is elapsed, the Timy switches to the next run. 21.04.2008 V 083A Intermediate version ====================================== "COMMANDER"->"COUNTUP" : First draft, not finished. 08.04.2008 V 0836 Intermediate version ====================================== "LAPTIMER": bug fixed: The user can set the display(finish-window) and the GAZ/DLINE to show the totaltime or sequentialtime. On the printer and the serial port both will be output (as before). GAZ-MODE: SEQUENTIAL-TIME On the dipslay board the sequentialtime will be shown. TOTAL-RUNTIME On the dipslay board the totalruntime will be shown. BOTH On display board 'A': sequentialtime On display board 'B': totalruntime In the finish-window of the display both times will be shown. Upper line: totalruntime. Lower line: sequentialtime. After an update the GAZ-mode remains unchanged. "SPEED": The distance can be set in 0.1 m steps ranging from 0.1 m upt to 9999.9 m. 01.04.2008 V 0834 ================= GPS-Synchronization: The checksum will also be checked. 25.03.2008 V 0833 ================= 25.03.2008 V 0832(2) ==================== GSM-Conncection: bug fixed: STOPWATCH: No times were transmitted, despite the modem had sent "CONNECT 9600", that means that the connection is ok. "COMMANDER"->"COUNTDOWN": bug fixed: Entering the intervall time is OK. Commandset: New command "PRI" The "PRI"-command is equal to the command "PRINTER". "COMMANDER"->"2 COUNTERS": bug fixed: When entering a start-value, unpredictable numbers appeared on the display. 14.03.2008 V 0832 ================= "STOPWATCH": Connecting two Timys over RS232: known bug: You cannot change a start-time, when its bib has already a finish-time. 13.03.2008 ========== "STOPWATCH": Connecting two Timys over GSM or RS232: By editing a finish-time you can assign a finish-time to an already started bib, which has not yet a finish-time. This finish-time will also be transmitted to the other Timy. By editing a run-time you can assign a run-time to an already started bib, which has not yet a run-time. This run-time will also be transmitted to the other Timy. 13.03.2008 ========== "TERMINAL": grafic bug fixed: On the fonts oem6_8 and Times13 the characters have different widths. If the mask is defined as "00:00" and with the the keys 0 to 9 a value is entered, then the bug occured. On the font Ti8_10 this bug didn't occure, as long as ":", ";", ",", "." were used. (terminal.c set_kurser()) 06.03.2008 V 0831 ================= GPS-Synchronization: bug fixed: It could happen that 2 Timys were exactly 1,0000 s differently synchronized. Now it works properly with all configured gps-devices. Regardless to the width of the PPS-signal(20ms to 980 ms). If the gps-device has captured the sats, the Timy checks the PPS-signal and prints out a warning if the channel 0 (connected to the PPS-signal) is permanently LOW or HIGH. 18.02.2008 V 0825 ================= "COMMANDER"->"SAFE DRIVING" Delaytime can be set from 00-99 tenth. You can set the direction as follows: LEFT, RIGHT, ACCIDENT and BLANK. 15.02.2008 V 0823 ================= "SPEED": delaytime: If it is 0, then the result will be shown until a next measuring is started. Otherwise only until elapsing of the delaytime, then the displayboard goes to BLANK. The GAZ, which address is 1 shows always the best result, and will never be deleted(BLANK). 14.02.2008 V0822 ================ "STOPWATCH": Printer: If the printer was turned off during a race (eg. change of a new paper), and then the printer was turned on again, the times will be printed out, which may have arrived meanwhile. This is for the 1. and further heats. But in this version no disqualified times will be printed out, becaus of technical reasons. If the are still needen, you can get them by sending the "RSM"-command by a pc. 12.02.2008 V0821 ================ "COMMANDER"->"SAFE DRIVING": controlling for a special RTNM-display board. 06.02.2008 V0811 ================ "TRAINING REF" bug fixed: After a certain amaount of times are in the memory, a hangup occured. 23.01.2008 V 07C4 ================= "COMMANDER"->"COUNTDOWN": The running tenth can be truned on and off. "TIMY": If you turn on the TED-correction at the Timy, it will be printet out on the printer. TED-correction: YOu can set the Timy, that eg. at channel 0 a TED-RX is connected. Usually each arriving measuring impulse, which comes from the TED-RX is delayed with 0,1 s. That means that the runtime must be corrected. You can set the Timy to correct the time automatically, each channel can be set seperately. An automatically corrected time, will be marked with a 'T' (Source->TED). 16.01.2008 =========== "SPEED" bug fixed: When the the max. measuring poeriod was exceeded ,then the result ist 0,0 and will be displayed at display and display board. "COMMANDER-COUNTDOWN": When a countdown is elapsed, then you can by pressing CLR-button and then F0-button, reset the coundown to ist start-value, which is visible at the display and the display board. 17.12.2007 V 07C3 ================= KEYBOARD-LOCK "KEYB-LOCK=>123456" also at critical situations always visible. 12.12.2007 ========== "KEYBOARD-LOCK": If a new timing-impulse arrives during the keyboard-lock, then the text "KEYB-LOCK=>123456" was no longer visible at the lowest display line. 10.12.2007 V 07C2 ================= "CYCLESTART": During the countdown-stage, the relais in the GAZ is always on, so the HORN-Signal from the Timy goes directly to the loudspeaker of the GAZ. without any delay up to 0,1s. 07.12.2007 V 07C1 ================= "COMMANDER"->"STARTDISPLAY": With the buttons F0,F1,F2 and F3 the running time can be stopped. The buttons were labeled with "HALT" (on the display at the lowest line). Now it says "STOP". "DISPLAY-BOARD: DLINE and GAZ": After an update the baudrate is 2400. So is it, when the user set the Timy to its STANDARD-setting. "DISPLAY-BOARD:DLINE software-version V3.5 and higher": On a DLINE with software-version V3.5 and higher the following settings are possible: The DLINE can be used in 6 modes. The value will be remained after switching off and on. The user can set the baudrate at the TIMY and at the DLINE to 2400, 4800, 9600 or 19200 baud. The value will be remained after switching off and on. The user can set the value for DLINE's TIMEOUT and the address. TIMEOUT: 00 ==> for ever 01 ==> 10s 02 ==> 20s 99 ==> 990s address: 00 ==> no adressing 01 ==> address 1 10 ==> address 10 bug fixed: mainly druing the adjusting of the quartz the bug 0.01 seconds happened. It is still recommanded to make an update. "TIMY": Each channel can be set to correct the time, if an TED-RX is connected to this channel. See "menu"->"channels"->"internal"->"ted-correction" The bib can be entered over the serial port or usb. generally :"#1234" for all programs, exceptions are described below. "STOPWATCH":"#1234C0" for start-window "#1234C1" for finish-window "DUALTIMER": The bib can be entered over the serial port or usb with this command: "#1234b" "#1234r" "#1234l" "COMMANDER"->"STARTDISPLAY": default: SEMI-AUTO Menu: There are 3 possible settings for AUTMATIC: COMMANDER-PROG START-DISPLAY AUTOMATIC FULL : If green-stage elapsed ==> red-stage: red-time is running If yellow-stage elapsed ==> green-stage: green-time is running SEMI-AUTO : If green-stage elapsed ==> red-stage: red-time at reset-value If yellow-stage elapsed ==> green-stage: green-time is running SEMI-MANUAL: If green-stage elapsed ==> red-stage: red-time at reset-value If yellow-stage elapsed ==> red-stage: red-time at reset-value In the menu the user can set if the yellow-time count up or down. After an udpate: yellow-time counts down. The red- and green-time counts always sown. CONTRAST: bug fixed: setting the contrast for the DLINE: the command didn't work at any time. "STOPWATCH": If a time is arrived by an external device, the bib-automatic for start and finish is not active. "COMMANDER:FOOTBALL" and "GAELIC FOOTBALL": bug fixed: The play-time shall stop automatically a at 45 min or 90 min. bug fixed: If a TImy receives a time from an other Timy over a GSM-connection, then on the usb-interface the time was sent twice instead of only once. "TRAINING-LIGHT": The output of the runtimes to the serial port/usb is now with full resolution. "FOOTBALL": If you enter a new play-time, the scor will be deleted automatically. #define _HW_RELOAD Timer 3 is automatically reloaded by T4. External printer: bug fixed: If an external printer is connected to the Timy, no datas were sent to it. bug fixed: If the technician switches from internal to external printer, a hang up happened. "WINDSPEED": bug fixed: If the display board was deleted, then the points were still visible at the DLINE. "GPS": If a gps-device is connected, during powering up, it will be automatically detected by the Timy, if they have the same baud-rate. Then the synchrisation-sequence will be done, and the the "times clear/save"-sequence. "TRAINING-REF","TRAINING-LIGHT","LAPTIMER": bug fixed: if "2nd"-button was pressed shortly, at the lowest line of the display "DIST SEX" appereared. "TRAINING-REF": bug fixed: If at the start-position the speed was requiered, then the number of runners was count twice instead of once, which was visible at the printout. For the speed-measuring the distance can be set to 5m, 10m or 20m. After an update it is 10m. 20.07.2007 Version V0777 ======================== public version 13.07.2007 Version V0776 ======================== "STOPWATCH": If a STN has not yet started, then on the display board the time 0:00 without the dot after the STN will output. (The dot after the STN would mean: running time) (The letter 'C' after the STN would mean: stopped finishtime) "123 0:00.00 " correct data format. "123. 0:00.00 " former not properly data format, dot means running time "FOOTBALL": One more setting for controlling the display board (abbr. GAZ): 2 addressed GAZ each has 6 Digits, toggle switch in middle position: GAZ '1': Playtime "MM:SS" or Daytime "HH:MM" GAZ '2': Home (left alligned) and Guest (right alligned) each has 3 digits "HHHGGG" GAZ '1': Playtime "MM:SS" or Daytime "HH:MM" GAZ '2': Home (left alligned) and Guest (right alligned) each has 2 digits "HH GG" 09.07.2007 Version ================== "WINDSPEED": If a average measuring is completed (5s, 10s or 13s), the result will be displayed at the display board, AND after elapsing the delay time, the display board goes to blank. If the delay time is set to zero, then the display board will not be cleared. You have to start a new measuring or go the NORM-mode (one measuring per second). 09.07.2007 Version V 0773 ========================= "PC-TIMER" bug fixed: If you resynchronize the Timy with "2nd" + CLR, and prior to trigger the channel 0, you send additionaly the command "SYNM00:00:00.0000", then it could happen that the Timy started from 13 minutes instead from 00:00:00.0000. "BACKUP","PC-TIMER" bug fixed: If the Timy is supplied with external power, it could happen, that the the min-sync triggered with OKred and OKgreen was not exactly at the min-jump. 06.07.2007 Version V 0772 ========================= The LOGO is shown at the display, if "PRINTER-MENU"->"START-LOGO"->"ON" is on, regardless the external power supply. 04.07.2007 Version V 0771 ========================= "TERMINAL": running chain as before: You can connect one or more new Timys additionally to the running chain. The Mater-Timy automatically sets the addresses. If 1 slave is missed, then the missing one must be reconnected (with the same address), before you can connect completely new slaves. If 1 slaves is missed, and a new slave is connected, which has not the same address, then the new one will not detected by the Master-Timy. You have to reconnect the missing slave. One slave removed, then and a new one (address = 0) an the missing one are reconnected simultaneously, ==> OK. 02.07.2007 Version V 076c ========================= "PC-TIMER": With the buttons "2nd" + CLR or with the command "SYNMhh:mm:ss.zhtZ" the Timy will be resynchronized, the time will be output on rs232, usb and display board. The new time will not be stored in the RTC-chip. The digits behind the comma, are set to 0. "BACKUP": "Running tenth" If you toggle to the menu, then the time will be shown at the display board continously without any missing tenth. "TRACKTIMER": In the lowest line of the display, you can see "DIST SEX": You can enter the distance and the sex(FEMALE,MALE,MIXED) as a printer notification. distance: from 0 to 9999 m. "COMMANDER"->"ATTEMPT-STARTNUMBER-WIDTH": To the display board with the address 'A' the attempt and STN also will be displayes. 14.06.2007 Version V 076a ========================= "COMMANDER"->"FOOTBALL": If the playtime has elapsed, then the channel 0 is pulled down to LOW for 3 s. (as channel 3 already does). 13.06.2007 Version V 0761 ========================= "TERMINAL": All 10 seconds the Master-Timy looks for new connected Timys. New command: "TERFFX1" enables the Timy to write "Transmitting.." after the OK-button was pressed. default and after any update it is set to "TERFFX0" that means off. Attention: When you remove a SLAVE from the running chain, and reconnect it, go sure that the address is the same. This version has 2 advantages: 1.) Sending commands from the pc to the Timys works 33% faster. 2.) Sending datas from the Timys to pc works much faster "TRACKTIMER": Under construction: In the lowest line on the display, you can see "DIST SEX". You can enter with the F0-button the distance, and with the F1-button the sex (femail/mail/mixed). The entered item will be printed out. 22.05.2007 ========== "Backup","PC-TIMER": bug fixed: If you set channel 0 to OFF after an resynch ("2nd" + "CLR"), then the internal (START-button) and the external (plug) channel 0 are set to OFF. "Tennis": It is not possible the go to the test-mode accidently. The Timy requieres a confirmation. 14.05.2007 ========== bug fixed: After have leaved a menu, on which a value had to be entered. then the buttons "0" to "92 are without any function. also the buttons "arrow up" and "arrow down are without any function. 11.05.2007 Version V 0757 ========================= "TENNIS" : minor corrections 11.05.2007 Version V 0756 ========================= "TENNIS" 3 small corrections in the "Best of 3 Sets" 1.) Champion-Tiebreak: In the 3. set the display board doesn't show 0 to 0 but BLANKS. 2.) If you directly enter a new score, and you have been in the Champion Tiebreak just before, then the score was not shown correctly. 3.) If a player has won 2 sets, then the game is immediately over. 10.05.2007 Version V 0755 ========================= "STOPWATCH": bug fixed: precision 1 /10000s In the memory window there was sometimes a minor grafic bug. 08.05.2007 Version V 0754 ========================= "TENNIS" "Best of 3 set": If you come to the 3.set, the Timy automatically sets correctly who has service. If the scores of both player is equal after the 2. set, then the score will be sent immediately to the display boards, then the Timy asks the user: "Champions Tiebreak / 3.Set" 07.05.2007 Version V 0753 ========================= "TRAINING LIGHT": The user can work in the second-mode. "TRACKTIMER": bug fixed: If the user changes the bib with the OK-button, the nonaddressed displayboard will not be set to 0:00. 04.05.2007 Version V 0752 ========================= "TENNIS": The score will be sent to the RS232 at each change of the score. 02.05.2007 Version V 0751 ========================= "TERMINAL": Bug fixed: Eg "TERFFT1ART=1" causes the Timy to answer with "NOTTERFFT1A=1". The "NOT" may not appear in the answer-string. Because the datas "RT=1" are viewed as a command, "NOT" will also sent to the pc. "RT=1" is not a command in this case , but it is data, which should be displayed at the Timy's display. "WINDSPEED": The command "SP2" is only in this program possible. "STOPWATCH": The command "DIRECT" is only in this program possible. The command "DIS" is only via "USB" possible. 26.04.2007 Version V 0745 ========================= "TRAINING REF": If the runner doesn't pass the finish, a TIMEOUT message will be sent also to the Rs232 and USB channel. "STOPWATCH","DUALTIMER": Bug fixed: If there is only one start-time in the memory, and this time will be cleared, then a reset can occure. If this time is the only one in the memory and you switch the Timy off and on, after the synchronization alos a reset can occure. 18.04.2007 Version V 0743 ========================= "DUALTIMER": Printer-printout: FT was standing at the position, where RT was expected. 17.04.2007 Version V 0742 ========================= "WINDSPEED": measuring results are also sent to USB, not only to rs232. 13.04.2007 Version V 0741 ========================= "WINDSPEED": All messages are also sent to USB. RS232: commands: N,H,W,L,A USB : commands: "SP2" + N,H,W,L,A The commands look different, regarding from which data-channel RS232 or USB they were sent. Apart from that, they are identically. "TIMY" bug fixed: When editing a time, one position after nach blinking character, some pixel were erased in the lcd. This bug occured only at small font (6x8 pixel). "TRACKTIMER", "TRAINING LIGHT", "STOPWATCH", "DUALTIMER": bug fixed: If the customer print out or read out the memory accidently, when it is empty, then a endless list with unvalid daytimes were printed out. "CYCLESTART": bug fixed: If the customer print out or read out the memory accidently, when it is empty, then a endless list with unvalid daytimes were printed out. DRUCKER: If prior to switching on the Timy, the cover of the printer is opened, and later during the race it will be closed, the printer works correctly. "CLASSEMENT"->"KLASSE": Most customer want to print out not only one class, but aftewards go on printing out more classes. Therefore the it is desired to stay in the class menu, after you have printed out one class. "TRAINING-LIGHT": "CLASSEMENT->CLASS" e.g. from 1 to 1: All times with this bib should be printed out and sent to the rs232. "TRAINING-REF": "CLASSEMENT->CLASS" e.g. from 1 to 1: All times with this bib should be printed out and sent to the rs232. That regards not only "MEMORY PRINT"->"START" but also "MEMORY PRINT"->"PRINT DAYTIME". Connection: TIMY<->TIMY via RS232 is in this program not possible. Gsm-Functions are also not possible in this program. 14.03.2007 Version V073b ZW =========================== "TRAINING-REF": Max measuring time for speed was extendef from 2s to 4s. That way the min. speed is no longer 18km/h but 9km/h. (distanc remains constan at 10 m. 10m/4s = 2.5 m/s ==> (*3.6) = 9 km/h "PRINTER" bug fixed: When you print out a large number of lines (memory read out), sometimes some lines were not printed out, so at classement. Sometimes the printer hasn't switched off after classement print out. "PARALLELSLALOM": bug fixed: If the start and finish impulse comes close together, then at the lcd the R or B mark ( who is the winner) was not displayed. "STOPWATCH": F1=CLEAR removed in FINISH-TIME-EDIT and RUN-TIME-EDIT mode. 19.02.2007 Version V 0730 ZW ============================ "TERMINAL": Also a SLAVE with its own power supplay can be removed and reconnected to the running chain. The master detects this automatically. restrication: If the MASTER-TIMY is removed out of the running chain, and the SLAVES remains powered on, and you Switch off an in the MASTER-TIMY, then the MASTER views the running chain as completely, but in the HW-ID list the samy HW-ID occurs more than one time. So you shoul avoid this special case. 19.02.2007 Version V 0729 ZW ============================ ("Hardware testprogram"->"SYSTEM": You can remove the SEIKO-Key.) 16.02.2007 Version V 0728 ========================= "PC-TIMER" and "BACKUP": Synchronizing quickly to 0:00:00.0 "2nd"+"CLR" => "Confirm: New start ?" "F0" or "F1" => Timy will be synchronized to 0:00:00.0 On display-board,RS232 and USB the time 0 will be output. After the start impulse, on the display board the time from 0.7s can be shown. There is a bit delay, because of technical reasons. On usb and rs232 the running time will be shown correctly in 0.1s steps. Also the display delaytime will be cleared. Throgh menu you can set if the channel 0 is active, after a resynchronization. "MENU"->"BACKUP"->"CHANNEL 0"->"OFF" "ON" After an update "MENU"->"BACKUP"->"CHANNEL 0" is "OFF". Deleting the display delaytime: You can delete a running display delaytime with the ok-button. Except a correction of the bib or time is in progress. or if you are in the memo-mode. If you change the mode (MEMO->NORM, or to the pc-timer-mode) the display delaytime will be deleted. Printer: In case of disturbance (paper empyt,cover removed) or interruption (Xoff), the printer is after the removal automatically ready to work. After an update all programs are switched on. You can switch on the printer, if external power supply exists or the Timy itself hasn't deactivated the printer. Bug fixed: When correcting a time in "PC-TIMER" a hangup can happen. 01.02.2007 Version V 07.21 ========================== Printer: At the first timeout the printer will be disabled. E.g. when the paper is empty. during printing many runtimes. In order to reenable the printer, you have to PRINTER-OFF and then PRINTER-ON in the printer-menu. "DUALTIMER": bug fixed, When the runners RED and BLUE start seperately, sometimes a displayboard remains blank. "TENNIS": New program. At the beginning you have to select the mode: "3 set" "5 set" "open end" "universal" In the ordinary mode: Point for GREEN: START-button or OKgreen Point for RED: STOP-button or OKred. To decide who has to service, there are theses keys: GREEN player: F0,F1,OKgreen and START-button RED player: F2,F3, OKred and STOP-button Keys in the ordinary mode: F2 : New match, or new score, or (when OPEN-END-prog:) new set. F3,CLR : Back: one step backward to the former score. Simultaneously with "2nd"-button you can go one step forward. "TRACKTIMER" bug fixed: E.g. display-delay time 30 s and before elapsing a new run should be startet, (Entering "STN..","OK", and START-channel) then the Timy has waitet until the display-delay time has elapsed, and afterwards the running time of the next run was shown. So it could be possible that a run starts from 6 s and not from 0s. bug fixed: CLASSEMENT->ALL->PRINT MEMORY->START: Only the start-times have benn sent. bug fixed: reading out the entire memory didn't work correctly. "TRAINING LIGHT": Then time-measuring impulses are not countered any longer in the rs232-interface: n0001 0001 C0 23:57:32.5054 02 <- STN 1 has started the second time. 0001 c2 00:00:01.25 02 nettotimes are marked with a small 'c'. 0001 c3 00:00:01.78 02 daytimes are marked with a large 'C'. 0001 c4 00:00:02.24 02 0001 c5 00:00:02.56 02 0001 c6 00:00:02.88 02 0001 c7 00:00:03.18 02 0001 c1 00:00:04.64 02 n0002 0002 C0 00:01:20.9589 01 <- STN 2 has started the first time. 0002 c2 00:00:00.69 01 0002 c3 00:00:00.92 01 0002 c1 00:00:01.73 01 n0003 n0001 0001 C0 00:01:28.4752 03 <- STN 1 has started the third time. 0001 c0 00:00:04.88 03 0001 c0 00:00:10.14 03 0001 c1 00:00:11.19 03 n0003 The last 2 digits was alwas 00. Now at the startime the run is displayes. So the pc-program knows immediately, which run is active. Getting the memory to rs232 and printer: With MENU-CLASSEMENT-ALL-PRINT MEMOEY the entire memory will be sent to rs232 and to the printer, as before. With MENU-CLASSMENT-CLASS-STN, only those times with this STN will be sent to rs232 and to the printer. With MENU-INTERFACE-RS232-SEND MEMORY the entire memory will be sent to rs232. E.g. You want to send only times with bib 3 to the rs232, without printer: First turn off the printer and MENU-CLASSEMENT-CLASS-STN 3. Then turn on the printer again. "2nd" + "PRINT" (simultaneously)->"PRINER-MODE"->"PRINTER ON" "PRINTER OFF" Switching to a new run was improved, the display shows less activity. E.G the display-delay-time is 90 s and the impulse for the finish-condition has come. Now you can switch to the next run, even before the delay-time has elapsed. "BACKUP","PC-TIMER": During the memo-mode the daytime will also be shown at the display-board, in the former version it was blank. All arriving times will be shown at the board for the time of the delay-time. "TENNIS", "FOOTBALL", "GAELIC FOOTBALL": Displaying the datime on the display-board: E.g. 00:00 h the one-digit of hours is zero the ten-digit is blank. There were blank in the former version. "USB" Live-Signal: consists of 16 bytes, the last is carriage return . ALso each data-packets are closed with a carriage return. "SEIKO"-Logo When powering up with an external power supply, the message "EXTERNAL POWER" doesn't appear, because it isn't needed. But when an external power suppy is connected to an already running Timy, with batteries, then the message will be displayed. "TRAINING-REF": When timinmg-impulses arriving, they will be immediately sent to rs232 and printer. protocoll for the rs232: "R0001 Str 15:06:53.7594 01" <- Last two digits: run, stn 1 has started the first time. "R0001 It1 0:10.42" "R0001 End 0:20.47" So far after the tenthousands-digit there was the carriage return. But now the pc-program knows immediately which run is active. "COMMANDER-FOOTBALL": When the playtime is finished, the channel 3 will be pulled down for 3 seconds, and the horn sounds for 3 seconds. "COMMANDER-STARTDISPLAY": At the display in the most below line, "HALT" appears. By pressing F0, F1, F2 or F3 you can stop the countdown without reseting it. You can let it run further with the START-button. Small bug fixed: font Small bug fixed: At the display board there must be the same text shown as at the lcd, when HALT was pressed. "BACKUP" After an update "STN*" is turned off. If desired, you have to turn it on, and then it will be stored in the eeprom, until the next update. After an update: PRINTER is "ON" TED-RX is "OFF", But in the program "TRAINING-REF" it is always "ON" and cannot be turned off. "STOPWATCH" format for display-board string Runtime with character 'C' Totaltime with character 'D' All programs: In "MENU"->"CHANNELS" there are 3 items now: "INTERNAL" "BEEP" "TED-RX"->"OFF" <--- new !!! "ON" <--- new !!! If "TED-RX"->"ON" then the Timy knows that an TED-RX is connected to it. cable with 3 wires :GND,RS232-RX and C5, 2400 baud. It is possibel to receive from up to 9 TED-TX, each is addressed with its switch, the timing-impulses. The TED-RX provides one data-byte and one timing-impulse. In the program "TRAINING-REF" this feature is always "ON". RS232,USB: Command "NSF?" or "TIMY-USB:NSF!!!" possible. USB: "bulk-transfer": also possible as before. USB: "intr-transfer": Also packets, which are longer than 16 bytes can be sent. "STOPWATCH": Starttimes can be inserted over rs232 or usb. Syntax: "SST 1234 C0 12:34:56.7890 00\r" The pc has to wait for the acknowledge of the Timy. before sending the next command. Only starttimes can be sent, no intermediate times, no memotimes, no runtimes. "TRAINING-LIGHT": Printer will be turned off, when printing the prog-name is finished. Checking if the finish-condition is ok, will no longer be done in the fast external interrupts. Display was also corrected, in the case of getting some timing-impulses in rapid succession. 20.10.2006 Version V 06A6 ========================= Setting the date: range check month: tens digit: may never be greater than 1 day : tens ditit: may never be greater than 3 It is still possible to show unvalid values e.g. month = 19, but when pressing the OK-button an entirely range-check will be done. Switching on: bug fixed: When a message e.g. "External Power appears ,during the setting of the date and time. the lcd was not restored properly. "TERMINAL": missing-detection expanded: Now the Master-Timy detects a missing, when it is sending a command to an slave. Missing- and present-messages will be sent always to the pc, even if the pc-program works with the old command set (from COMET junction box). "LAPTIMER", "TRACKTIMER": bug fixed: reading out the entire memory to the pc didn't work properly.Fehler behoben: Auslesen des gesamten Speichers an den PC funktionierte nicht richtig 17.10.2006 Version V 06A5 ========================= "Commander-Countdown": When elapsed: C0 will be drawn to LOW for 0,2 s. "Commander-Countdown": When elapsed: HORN 800 Hz will sound for 1 s. "Commander-Countdown: Format: There are 3 formats now. According to the format, the 2 digits behind the comma will not be shown, since the display-board doesn't have so much digits. Only seconds: SSSSSS.zh (6 before the comma) Hours, Minutes and Seconds: HHHH:MM:SS.zh (8 before the comma) Days, Hours, Minutes and Seconds: DDDD:HH:MM:SS.zh (10 before the comma) "COMMANDER":Concentration-Clock: bug fixed: display board didn't work properly. "TERMINAL": When during the enumeration the error "2 SLAVES have the same address" occurs, then the data chain will be reenumerated. Formerly the Master-Timy printed out this message again and again for all eternity. "TERMINAL": no more hangup, even if you press quickly the OK-button, in order to send datas to the pc. "TERMINAL": If only a MASTER-Timy is connected (no slaves), then the pc's command are also executed. "STOPWATCH": bug fixed: When the user entered a certain starttime, the Timy made a reset. "STOPWATCH": If the keyboard is locked, in the most below line you can see, "KEYB LOCK => 123456". If now an external supply is connected or reconnected, this line was not shown any more. "STOPWATCH": COPY DAYTIMES: You can also copy a runtime of a bib, which has not started yet. "BACKUP":"PC-TIMER": You can set the deadtime for each channel seperately. through RS232 / USB and through menu. "BACKUP":"PC-TIMER": before: 1 now: 1 2 2 3 3 *10 *10 4 5 5 6 all impulses are numerated. "MENU"->"GENERAL"->"STN-AUTOMATIC"->"START"-> "MANUALLY" BIB will not switched further "UP" BIB switches up, as before "DOWN" BIB switches down Default:After an update "UP" "STN *" is "ON" "SPEED": bug fixed: If the speed exceeds >= 1000 Km/h then reset. "SPEED": display dead time:If it is zero, then the measuring's result will be shown until the start of a new measuring. Otherwise the result will be shown as long as the display dead time. Then thee display board goes to blank. "FOOTBALL", "GAELIC FOOTBALL": After power on, the progam ia in play-time-mode automatically. "DUALTIMER" COPY DAYTIMES: You can also copy a runtime of a bib, which has not started yet. "DUALTIMER": Timys can be disqualified, cleared and uncleared. green START-button: STOP LEFT red STOP -button: STOP RIGHT Through menu: COMMON: YES/NO (Start) Only 1 heat possible. Classement:only runtime: COMMON, RED, BLUE. ALL or CLASS "COMMANDER":"2 COUNTERS" New program ! 2 Counters: 3digits Left counter : Channel 0, greenOK,START-button, F0 and F1: one step further Right counter: Channel 1. redOK ,STOP -button, F2 and F3: one step further YOu can through "MENU"->"COMMANDER-PROG"->"2 COUNTERS" turn to "UPWARDS" or "DOWNWARDS". Then the Timy counts one step further up or down. At the display's bottom you can see four small arrow, which points up oder down and that goes along with the direction of counting. You can also enter a score directly through the buttons 0 to 9 and OK. "TIMY": Bug fixed: Only in the program "TRACKTIMER" in "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"RS232" the item "TRACK-MODUS" is enabled. "TIMY": After an update to vrsion V06xx all programs are switched on. "TIMY": "DLINE": In the menu "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"DISPLAY BOARD"->"SET DATE" you can set the date of the DLINE-displayboard. But the daytime will be set according the Timy's daytime automatically. That means, not the daytime , which was set in advance in "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"DISPLAY BOARD"->"SET TIME" will be used. "TIMY": USB-Interface: realtime and regardless an pc's connection the timeline remains stable. 29.03.2006 Version V 0636 ========================= "TIMY" After an update to this version all program are turned on. From the next version all programs are turned on oder off according to the former state. The customer can deactivate those programs, he doesn't need. Then he can reactivate them everytime. "DLINE": In the menu "MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"DISPLAYBOARD"->"SET TIME" the user can set the daytime of the DLINE-board. "FOOTBALL" Minor correction. Now the user can set to "DLINE in the menu "BOARD"->"GAZ", ->"TIMETEMP". In this menu, you can find the same items as in "GAZ". The difference is, that in "DLINE" no ':' and '.' will be sent to the board. 28.03.2006 Version V 0635 ========================= "SPEED": Beside kmh, ms and mph there is a 4th format, unit: TIME. The TIME will be shown on display and display board. At the printer all remains as before. The last measuring remains always at the display and the display board. "TRAINING-LIGHT": format for the display board:GAZ-Format: The format was adapted, so it is as the same as in "STOPWATCH". running time : "123. " STN is 123 in this example. interm. time : "123A " finish runtime : "123C " "BACKUP": Editing time and STN: OLD: RS232: output of the time, marked with 'c' (cleared) lacked. NEW: RS232: All editet STN and times were marked with 'c' (cleared) and sent out, then the time will be marked with 'i' (input) and sent out. "STOPWATCH": advanced automatic of the startnumber: Now you can enter a max. time, after passing this time, the STN for finish will jump further, if until then no finish time has arrived. "MENU"->"GENERAL"->"STN-AUTOMATIC"->"START" ->"FINISH" ->"AUTOMATIC-TIME"->"AUTOTIME-MAX" default: 24 hours "TIMY": Input of the daytime: "HH:MM:SS" was improved. e.g. "14:00:00" cursor is blinking at '1'. If the user wants to enter "20:00:00" a beep was heared, which shows that "24:00:00" is not a valid time. Now after entering the complete hourse a range check will be done. "TIMY": Each program (except "backup") can be turned off and on, so at the next powerin of, only those programs are selectable. If an external power suppy is used, and the automatic selects itself the last selected program, and right this program was turned off, before the Timy was powered off, then is this program also selectable. The last selected program is always selectable. 15.03.2006 Version V 0634 INTERMEDIATE VERSION ============================================== "CYCLE-START": The traffic-display can completely be turned off and on. If the countdown was launched, the Timy sends a horn signal for 1 s to the display board. "PARALLEL-SLALOM": display board: data format: old: "123P" new: "123." When running, there is a dot, no 'P'. If the running tenth is on, then on a display board, only the full seconds are shown. On a D-Line you can see of course the running tenth. "PC-TIMER": special mode: "2nd"-button works correctly now. Only the buttons: "Menu", "F0" and "STOP" are active. 15.03.2006 Version V 0633 ========================= "COMMANDER" "COUNTDOWN": You can enter the startvalue for the countdown in this format: "HH:MM:SS.SS" settings of the periode with tenth and hundredth. "PARALLEL-SLALOM": Format for the display board: The dot is also transmitted (for D-Line). Now the format goes along with the standard. At a 6 digit board the mark R,B,L and the time in "SS.zht" is shown. If anybody wants the thousandth to be shown, he has to set the round-switch on the board to pos. 13 (SHIFT LEFT). But then the mark R.B.L cannot be shown. Renamed: "PENALTY TIME" to "MAX.DIFF.TIME" 08.03.2006 Version V 0632 ========================= "COMMANDER" "COUNTER" New program Simple counterprogram: 9 digits on display and display board count up : channel 0, START-button, OKgreen, F0, F1 count down: channel 1, STOP -button, OKred, F2, F3 You can enter the count value directly with 0-9 and OK. Each second the count value is sent to the display board. With the CLR-button, you can clear the display board. And then it reads on the display: "---------" 9 times MINUS. data format for the display board: "123 45 67 89 " "COMMANDER" After the program selection, the user can immediately select the subprogram. Until now that was not possible, the user had to select first COMMANDER, then the Timy jumped into the former subprogram, and only from that time, the user could select the subprogram Now it is more pleasant to select the subprogram. "COMMANDER" "CUL CULUIN" was renamed to "GAELIC FOOTBALL". "PARALLEL-SLALOM": Little correction when printing out. 07.03.2006 Version V 0631 ========================= "PARALLEL-SLALOM": New program Channel 0: Left, Blue Channel 1; Right, Red Only 1 heat possible No classement, just protocol You can clear a runner with CLR and restore it with "2nd"+"CLR". Runners, who are on the race, can be cleared with CLR, but you cannot restore them. "COMMANDER"-"COUNTDOWN": bug fixed: Mode: "HALT AT 0" Sometimes the Timy jumps to the startvalue instead of remaining at 0. Mode: "HALT and RESET" Sometimes the Timy jumped to the startvalue, before the deadtimy was elapsed. "TIMY": The texts for the french language were corrected. "SPEED": The best speed will be printed out on the printer, and is always shown at the display board, with the address '4'. If you change the unit, also the value for the display board '4' will be changed, and on the printer the best speed will be printed out again. 06.02.2006 Version V 0621 ========================= STOPWATCH: "Main-Menu"->"Classement"->"Class": The user can enter up to 6 ranges (from..to). "Main-Menu"->"General"->"Startlist": A list of the start oder will be printed out. Only if you are in the 2. heat. If the user changes to the 2. heat, and then he powers off and on the Timy, the user can select if the the runners want to start according to BIBO or STARTNUMBER. If the user doesn't clear the stored times at powering off, and there is one valid starttime or finishtime from the 2. heat, then the Timy asks the user to select the SAME or the NEXT HEAT, else the Timy asks the user, if he wants to start according to BIBO or STARTNUMBER. STOPWATCH: 2 new commands: "CALMT" You can calculate a classement of the memorytimes and output them. "RSRT<0 oder 1>" At the rs232 and at the usb you can switch off and on the runtimes- USB: If by usb a command was sent, and at the end of the data-packet there is a '?' then not always a cr is also sent. This depends on the current pc-program. Now the Timy was improved, that it can manage this case. e.g. "DTF?" To request the value of delaytime finish. But USB sends "DTF?000000000000" all zeros after '?'. The command-interpreter requieres a cr after the '?', therefore the TImy corrects internally. 31.01.2006 Version V 0614 ========================= Printer: bug fixed: If the paper is empty, or the printer is opened in order to insert a new paper, a current print-process will be interrupted. So far the Timy could do a reset. Any new print-commands are ignored now. If there is paper in the printer again, the user have to switch on the printer, by pressing "2nd" + "PRINTER" ->"PRINTER-MODE"->"PRINTER ON". 28.01.2006 Version V 0613 ========================= Commander: Countdown: bug fixed: countdown 0 cannot be entered. Commander: Countdown: bug fixed: If pressing the CLR-button, you can decide, if you want to reset the countdown or not. Then the OK-button didn't work. Speed: bug fixed: Somtimes the speed was not sent to the rs232. Tracktimer: Laptimer: Training Light: With the CLR-button a started runner can be erased. All times, which belong to this startnumber will also be erased. After pressing CLR, a confirmation is required. After erasing, the times are absolutely erased. rs232: Only the starttime will be marked and sent with 'c' (for cleared). PRINTER: as rs232 If the user wants to print out the memory later, the erase times doesn't exist any more. Tracktimer: The protocol at the rs232 is slightly different, just according if the times are sent ONLINE, or if they are sent afterwards. Therefore there is menu point at "MAIN-MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"RS-232"->"TRACK-MODE": ->"NORM" : protocol as described above. ->"IDENT" : protocol is exacty identical in both cases. Football: bug fixed: Triggering the dispay-board: Now the board will be triggered correctly at these modes: "6 DIG H- MM -G" "8 DIG H-MMSS-G" "8 DIG HH-MM-GG" Stopwatch: NEW: classement: Now you can calculate a memorytimes-classement, and send it to rs232, usb and printer. Stopwatch: startnumber-automatic at: "MAIN-MENU" -> "GENERAL" -> "STN-AUTOMATIC" -> "FINISH" -> "FINISH" was improved ! (It works exactly like the TdC). Stopwatch: bug fixed: If the memory is read out, with the commmand "RSM", and no times exist, then a endless list with unvalid times were printed out. TIMY: If a command is received by rs232 or usb, this data packet is internally terminated with character (ASCII 0). 18.01.2005 Version V 0612 ========================= Internal bug fixed: 17.01.2005 Version V 0611 ========================= Training-Ref: If the user selects through: "MENU"->"TRAINING-REF"->"SINGLE-STN"->"YES" the single-STN mode, then only those times will be shown, which belong to the selected start number Also no unvalid times will be shown. The program shows that the slope is free for the next competitor, by sounding the horn with 800 Hz for 1 second. (Der START-Kanal kann, muss aber nicht C0 bzw. die START-Taste sein). "COMMANDER"-"Countdown": The user can enter immediately a new countdown time, by pressing the buttons 0..9 and OK. Then you can see it at the display board and the display of the Timy. Then the countdwon can be started by pressing START. 04.01.2005 Version V 05C3 ========================= bug fixed: Italian and French language selection works correctly ! 21.12.2005 Version V 05C2 ========================= bug fixed: IF the user wants to get the classement over the USB, than the first time was missed, but on the rs232 it worked correctly. If the user wants to get the classement over rs232, than the first time was correctly sent on both USB and rs232. bug fixed: The present-string "TIM" + disturbed the transmission of the classement over the USB, Some characterw were overwritten. "COMMANDER" "FOOTBALL": Menu: So far, the user could switch beetween GAZ and TIMETEMP: "MENU"->"COMMANDER-PROG"->"FOOTBALL"->"BOARD"->"GAZ" "TIMETEMP" From now on there are in GAZ more options: ...->"BOARD"->"GAZ"->"6 DIG H- MM -G" ->"8 DIG H-MMSS-G" ->"8 DIG HH-MM--G" ->"STANDARD" (As before "HH MMSS GG") "COMMANDER": New subprogram "CONCENTRATION" Countdown program with up to 8 different countdowns, which count down every second (without thenth) e.g. bobsleigh, athletics "TRAINING-REF": error-detecting advanced: During setup a permanent trigger will be automatically detected, and the user can not press "NEW REF". You have to press "SETUP TESET" in ordder to check, which channel is permanently triggered. The user is forced to do a correct ref run. 02.12.2005 Version V 05C1 ========================= "TIMY": GPS-SYNC bug fixed: If the Timy prints out the ALGE-logo and an external power suppy is connected, then the sync doesn't work sometimes. "COMMANDER"-"FOOTBALL": New menu item: "MENU"->"COMMANDER-PROG"->"FOOTBALL"->"AUTOSTOP"->"NO" "YES" If "JA" then at countig up time, the time will be automatically stopped at 45 min and 90 min. Otherwise it counts up furtherly. bug fixed: If you change from the program "CUL CUILIN" to "FOOTBALL", the menu items "MASK" and "BOARD" were deacrivated. "TERMINAL": bug fixed If the master numerates all SLAVES the first time, then a grafic error occured at the display of the SLAVES. Now this error is fixed, because the standard font is OEM8_16. All characters of this font have the same width. Please note: You can choose the font with the command "TERFFF". The width of all characters are "OEM6_8" NOT EQUAL "TIMES13" NOT EQUAL "TI8_10" NOT EQUAL "OEM8_16" EQUAL "TRAINING-REF": 1.) 2 new menu items: "MENU"->"TRAINING-REF" "NEW REF-LAUF" (as before) "MEMORY CLEAR" NEW: You can erase the memory and then immediately a new ref run is started. Typically done after "SETUP TEST". "SETUP TEST" NEW: During setup the time measuring system, you can test wether all light-beams work correctly, including those, which are connected with the TED. The channels are displayed with C0,C1,C2,C3,C4,C5,C6,C7 and C8. To finish the SETUP-TEST, you can press either "NEW REF-RUN" or "MEMORY CLEAR" "MEAS-POINTS" (as before). 2.)error corrections improved. 3.)minor correction regarding powerint off the printer. 4.)bug fixed: It could happen, that at the ref-run a wrong runtime was calculated E.g. 23 hours instead of e.g 1 min 20 s. This error only occurs when you go alang this sequence: 1.NEW REF-RUN. 2.Power off and on a connected TED-RX OR when a undesired impulse meets the impulse-line OR the data line from the TED-RX to the TIMY has a bad connection, so that only the impuls gets to the TIMY but not the data byte 3.A channel directly at the Timy was triggered. 4.A channel was triggered at the TED-TX. NOTE: If you power off and an a connected to the TIMY and switched on TED-RX, a warnining will be printed out. The user can ignore this message, but it shows that the Timy has corrected the error automatically. But it can be helpfull, to find out if outer disturbing impulses meets the cable (TIMY-TEDRX). 5.)bug fixed: If you want to print out the memory, there were errors, which are fixed now. The errors occured when the user a.) changes the number of meas. points, and a competitor starts later with an already existing start number. b.) A run was broken off (not alle meas. points were passed) and a competitor starts later with an already existing start number. 09.11.2005 Version V 05B1 ========================= TRAINING-REF: minor correction of this bug: this sequence: enter STN with OK NEW REF Start-Impulse: At START-WINDOW : STN is shown. At FINISH-WINDOW: (STN-1) is shown. COMMANDER-FUSSBALL: HOME: also right aligned TERMINAL: The display of the Timy doesn't say SLAVE 01, SLAVE 02 but only TIMY 01, TIMY 02 e.g. TIMY 01 == ADDRESS == 1 If the MASTER-Timy sends back the received command to the pc, the pc can send IMMEDIATELY the next command. bug fixed: If the SLAVE has an active input-mask and the user presses rapidly CLR and OK, and the pc-program acknowledges each received data-packet with an command e.g T1A Text (Text at Line 1 Pos A), then a hang up could happen. MENU: In the "TERMINAL-MENU" there are these entrys: => "ADDRESS" => "MASTER/SLAVE" => "MASTER" => "SLAVE" An echo rejection was built in to prevent bus reflections. New command "B". eg "TER04B" to TIMY 4 a beep for 0,1 s is generated. bug fixed: If the MASTER has an address, which is not 1, the received command was not correctly done, if the pc-programm immediately after getting back the acknowledge, has sent the next command to to TIMY. 02.11.2005 Version V05A2 Intermediate ======================================== NEW PROGRAM: Subprogram of COMMANDER VARIANT OF FOOTBALL: cul(=goal) - cuilin(=points) NAME of the PROGRAM: "CUL-CUILIN" 28.10.2005 Version V05A1 Intermediate ======================================== "LAPTIMER": bug fixed: If the user wants to print out the whole memory, and ther are no times in the memory stored, many unvalid times were printed out. "TRAINING-REF": "PRINT MEMORY" ->"START" Memory will be printed out. ->"PRINT DAYTIMES" daytimes will be printed out. 18.10.2005 Version V0599 Intermediate ======================================== "COMMANDER": "FOOTBALL" You can change the daytime by the function buttons. "COMMANDER": "COUNTDOWN" bug fixed: At mode: "UPWARDS" at the display board the value 0 was not shown. 12.10.2005 Version V0597 Intermediate ======================================== "COMMANDER": "FOOTBALL" You can change the daytime by the menu. 11.10.2005 Version V0596 Intermediate ======================================== start.c disable_menu(Enum_3_INTERFACE_MENU,3);// HANDSHAKE ON/OFF "COMMANDER": "COUNTDOWN": precision 1 /100s , sinced this program is the timer, and the Timy has only an 100 Hz- time-base. Renamed: "MODE" to "IF ELAPSED" Now there are 4 possibilities: "MENU"->"COMMANDER-PROG"->"COUNTDOWN"->"IF ELAPSED" ->"CIRCLE" ->"STOP AT 0" ->"STOP RESET" ->"UPWARDS" <- NEW: After elapsed, the time will be count up immediately. "FOOTBALL": Daytime-mode: You can set by menu, if you want to see the score always or just in the gametime-mode. After an update the score is not shown in the daytime-mode. "MENU"->"COMMANDER-PROG"->"FOOTBALL"->"SCORE" ->"ONLY AT GAME" gametime-mode: HOME and GUEST, daytime-mode: BLANK ->"ALWAYS" the score is always shown at HOME and GUEST. gametime runs backward: By the menu you can set, if the you want to see MIN:SS or just minutes at the display board. "MENU"->"COMMANDER-PROG"->"FOOTBALL"->"ONLY MIN" ->"NO" minutes and seconds on the display board ->"YES" MINUTEN on the display board one minute is added than At the display the real time is shown, at the board one minute is added. xx.xx.2005 Version V0593 ======================== "BACKUP": The Timy knows if a STN was entered deliberately ( also in MEMO-mode) or if it was set automatically. You can switch this function on or off. Menu: "MENU"->"BACKUP"->"STN *"->"NO" ->"YES" After an update this feature is on. If on: If an STN was entered, only this STN is marked with an asteriks. The next impuls will have the former upcounting STN. If off: If a STN was entered, this STN is the next valid STN. And from this STN on, all impulses counts up. "GSM-MODEM": "STOPWATCH": You can connect 2 Timys with 2 gsm-modems. Only start- and finish-times are transmitted. No intermediate-, memo- and runtimes were transmitted. You can edit, clear, unclear and disqualify start- and finish-times. In order that 2 Timys can exchange their times. "GSM-MODEM": "Each other program except STOPWATCH": You can connnect a Timy with a notebook with 2 gsm-modems. 29.09.2005 Version V0592 ======================== "COMMANDER" Now you can switch on or off : "PRINT OUT"->"YES" or "NO" Regards all commander programs, which control the display board directly. At the time only the subprogram "STN-ATTEMP-WIDTH" "SPEED": bug fixed: The value for min / max speed , which was entered through menu, remain stored after switching off and on again the Timy. "FOOTBALL" Now you cannot change the score with the four arrow keys. Now you cannot see the star at "home" or "guest". 22.09.2005 Version V0591 ======================== All programs free !!! New program: "Football" A subprogram of COMMANDER: and replaces the COMET-programs "Football" and "Football GAZ" COMMANDER: Countdown: If a countdown is elapes for 0,3 s the channel 3 is active bug fixed at when entering a countdown time. LAPTIMER,TRAINING LIGHT: Since the version V 0551 you can set at ("2nd"+"PRINTER-button" simultaneously)->"PRINT DAYTIME" if you want to have the daytimes at the printout or not. After an update the daytimes will be printed out by default. 21.07.2005 Version V 0572 ========================= CYCLESTART: Countdown improved, tone and switching of the digits of the displayboard happens simtaneaously Ago the tone happened slightly prior to switching the digits. bug fixed: when starting a new race, after the countdwon has elapsed, for a moment the old counter value was shown on the displayboard. 12.07.2005 Version V 0571 ========================== TERMINAL: The program "TERMINAL" was developed further. Definition: "Running data chain" or "Running chain" has at least 2 TIMYS: A MASTER-TIMY, which is connected to the pc, and a SLAVE-TIMY. Now is it possible to connect one or more TIMYS to a running chain. They get automatically the next free number at the and of the chain. The MASTER-TIMY stores the new length of the chain in its EEPROM, and sends this message to the pc e.g.: "TIMY 08 present" If there were 7 TIMYS before, the pc-program has to send the command "TERLIST" to get the new list. It is also possible to remove one TIMY out of the running chain and replace it by an other TIMY. The MASTER-TIME can manage this automatically. The MASTER-TIMY sends e.g. "TIMY 04 missing" and later "TIMY 04 missing" to the pc. The new connected TIMYS store their number in the EEPROM. Special cases on a running chain: 1.) Running chain: You can remove all SLAVES and reconnect them later. The MASTER-TIMY can manage this automatically. 2.) If is SLAVE is missing, it is possible to connect one or more new SLAVES to the chain. The SLAVES will get automatically their number. If you want to assign a special number to a SLAVE, you have to connect the SLAVES one by one. They get then a consecutive number. 3.) If only ONE SLAVE is missing, and new TIMYS are connected, then there are some special cases: 3.1.) ONLY ONE NEW SLAVE was connected: All ok, the missing one will be replaced, except you connect the same TIMY to the chain, and you have changed the number before receconnecting. 3.2.) MORE NEW SLAVES were connected: Important: E.g. TIMY 3 is missing, then 2 or more new connected TIMYS must not have the number 3. Otherwise all ok. 4.) If more than one SLAVE are missing, than you can reconnect one or more missing SLAVES at the same time. But it is not possible to connect one or more NEW SLAVES. To see the difference between a missing and a new TIMY: missing TIMY: The address (= number) (visible in the menu) is equal to the address of the missing TIMY. To get the address of the missing TIMY , the pc has to send the command "TERLIST". E.g. If the MASTER-TIMY sends "TIMY 02 missing", that means that at the missing TIMY at the menu "TERMINAL"->"ADDRESS" the value 2 is visible. new TIMY: e.g. "TIMY 02 missing": At the new TIMY: "TERMINAL"->"ADDRESS": Every value except 2 E.g. the new TIMY has the address 17 => no problem, the MASTER-TIMY assigns a correct address. E.g. the new TIMY has the address 1, there is already a TIMY with this address. => that is also no problem, since the MASTER-TIMY assigns a correct address. CYCLE-START: start-lights control for the display-board was built in. 16.06.2005 Version V 0563 ========================= TERMINAL: Minor correction for faster working when getting commands by the pc. PC-TIMER: bug fixed:If the Timy is connected to a pc through USB, it has led to a hangup if you remove the USB without terminating the pc program first. Minor bug fixed: grafic display: When starting the prokram version was shown in to large letters. Minor bug fixed:printer CYCLESTART: For signaling the final round, you can use a manuall button at channel 7: ==> horn sounds for 2,5 s at the "red" (GAZ '1') display board channel 6: ==> horn sounds for 2,5 s at the "green" (GAZ '2') display board CYCLESTART: Minor bug fixed at the output at the display board. TRAINING-LIGHT: Impulse-Counter: The number of the impulses remain stored in the EEPROM. TRAINING-LIGHT: Impulse-Counter: e.eg. delaytime = 5s impulses 5 Each time for an impulse is shown for 5 s. Even if all 5 impulses arrives e.g. within 10 s. After 5 s the display goes to the next stopped time. 10.05.2005 Version V 0552 ========================= TIMY: If you select the menu point "ALGE-STANDARD", then the runtime netto will be also sended also to the RS232. "Interface"->"RS232"->"MODUS": There are only 2 points now: "NETTO TIME OFF" "NETTO TIME ON " LCD: If a message appaers like zB "EXTERNAL POWER" then the old state of the lcd will be restored correctly PC-TIMER,BACKUP: MASS-START Through the menu "Menu"->"BACKUP"->"MASS-START" you can do a mass start. The Timy asks if the existing times can be erased. Then you can enter the OFFSET-TIME. From this time the mass start will take effect. Then the TIMY waits for the start impulse. PC-TIMER: bug fixed: If you are in the special mode and you press the red OK-buttone, then a wrong time will be printed out and written to the memory, if some timys were stored in the NORM mode ago. 02.05.2005 Version V 0551 ========================= TIMY: Standard-Baudrate is 9600 Baud GAZ: Also the 1/1000th of a second is shown on the display-board. GAZ: If a display-board will be erased, in the data string is no ':' and '.'. New subprogram at "COMMANDER": "START-DISPLAY" : For ski-jumping a display-board is controlled. which looks similarly to a traffic light. TIMY: Now you can synronize the Timy with a gps-device. Baudrate is 9600 Baud Only if a gps-deviece is connected to the Timy a gps-window will appear. Keyboard: F0: OK Timy will be syncronized when an valid gps-string (Letter 'A') arrives. The adjusted value of UTC will be stored in the EEPROM. F1:UTC- UTC-zone -1/2 hour. range -12 to +12 F2:UTC+ UTC-zone +1/2 hour. range -12 to +12 F3: NO No gps-syncronization wanted ==> Sync manually. LAPTIMER: You can turn on or off if you want to have the runtime on your printout by the menu "Menu"->"Laptimer"->"Print runtime". LAPTIMER,TRAINING LIGHT: YOu can turn on or off if you want to have the daytimes on your printout by the menu ("2nd"+"PRINTER-Button" simultaneously )->"Print daytime" LAPTIMER: bug fixed The runtime on the printout was not calculated correctly. "TRACKTIMER": Standard-Mode: When changing the startnumber all addressed display-boards are erased. 11.04.2005 Version V 0543 ========================= program "STOPWATCH and -LIGHT": If the delaytime is zero and a finish impulse arrives, then the runtime (and the totaltime in the 2nd heat) will be also sent to the displayboard. program "COMMANDER: Subprogram "COUNTDOUWN": minor bug of the display fixed. All programs: bug fiexed: If the printer is turned off, it is not possibel to print out a classement. So far this was possibele. program "TERMINAL": 1.) broadcast-command: execution time was increased. 2.) If oem6_8 font was chosen, you can write upt to 21 characters in one line But you have to make two transmissions zB "TERFFT1A12345" => "12345 " "TERFFT1F67890aabbccddee1" => " 67890aabbccddee1" leads to that on the lcd => "1234567890aabbccddee1" One transmisstion consists of max. 16 characters. 3.) bug fixed: If you send the command "TERFFC" before you have defined a mask, then the right half of the display was got out of place. 4.) bug fixed: Determining who is the master of the chain. If all TIMYS are SLAVES, and the user determines one SLAVE to be the MASTER. Later an other TIMY should become the MASTER. The user has to connect this TIMY to the PC and send the command "TERLIST" to the TIMY. So far the chains there was a hang up, when these conditions have been granted. Now this bug is fixed. 04.04.2005 Version V 0541 ========================= program "TERMINAL": Some improvements Description and commandset will come later. program "COMMANDER": New subprogram: "TACHOMETER" This program counts the impulses on channel 1 and calculates the value for the speed in km/h. You can set the distance between 2 impulses and the time for the refresh cyclus by menu. program "TRACKTIMER". "STANDARD-MODE" If the delaytime1 is zero, then the stopped times are not visible at the display, but they will be sent to the GAZ as usual. If the delaytime1 is not zero, the stopped times are shown for the delaytime1. Of course you can go to the next stopped time by pressing the red OK-button. program "PC-TIMER". bug fixed. At the display the SYNC-time for date and time. E.g. After you have set the deadtime in the menu, the SYNC-time for the time was not shown correctly. program "PC-TIMER". bug fixed. setting the deadtime program "STOPWATCH and LIGHT": bug fixed Editing the finish time for a runner, who is not yet in the finish, and that startnumber is not in the finish window of the display it has led to an unvalid printing at the printer. 18.02.2005 Version V 0521 ========================= New program: "TERMINAL" Replaces the former COMET program TERMINAL. The COMET has a mode, called "COMPUTER". The TIMY has only this mode. The command set is the same, in order to be compatible to existing pc programs. There is also a newer command set, because you can build a data chain up to 100 TIMYS. A detailed description will come on Monday Feb. 21st 2005. All programs: In the menu "MAIN-MENU"->"INTERFACE"->"DISPLAYBOARD"-"CONTRAST" you can set the contrast for the "D-LINE"-Displayboard. The range is from 0 to 9. When you press OK, the command will be sent to to displayboard. program: Commander Subprogram: Countdown In the menu "MAIN-MENU"->"COMMANDER-PROG"->"COUNTDOWN"->"GAZ-ADDESS" you can set the addresse for the displayboard. The range is from 0 to 10. 0 : no addressing (After an update, this is default). 1..10: board 'A' to 'J' program "PCTIMER": After an update the checksum ist off. You have to switch it on with "CHK1" again. Until the next update, it remains on. program "TRAINING REF": Running and stopped time is shown on the GAZ. The speed is not shown on the GAZ. program "BACKUP" : bug fixed When an timing-impuls arrives and you press immidiately the Ok-button, the OK-button was not entered. program "TRAINING-LITE": bug fiexed impulse-counter mode: When the Timy turns to a new run, sometimes it turns two steps forward instead of one step. Timy: This message was removed. If "EXTERNAL POWER" appears and the output-voltage ist lower or equal than 9.8 V "BATTERIES WILL NOT BE LOADED" will be displayed Timy: USB works with WIN XP and USB2.0: The enumeration is OK. The feature below was removed: When the message "EXTERNAL POWER" appears, and if the output voltage is equal or lower than 9.8 V then, also "BATTERIES WILL NOT BE LOADED" will be displayed. 28.10.2004 Version V 04.A4 ========================== 1.) New Program "COUNTDOWN": This program is a subprogram of "COMMANDER". It is a easy to use countdown program, which counts from HH:MM:SS max. 99:59:59 down to zero (more then 24 hours). You can choose by menu 3 modes: 1. HALT at 0 : If the countdown has elapsed => halt at 0. 2. HALT RESET: like 1. but the start vlaue will be displayed 3. CIRCLE : like 2. but the countdown is running further add to 1. HALT at 0: When the countdown has reached zero, you can set it to the start-value by pressing the STOP-button or channel 1. You can switch on or off the TIMEOUT by menu. If the TIMEOUT is on then: With channel 0 (START-button) you can start or continou the Countdown. With channel 1 (STOP-button) you can stop the Countdown. If the TIMEOUT is off, a running countdown cannot be interrupted. You can enter up to 3 INTERVALLS: no fractions of a second. see alse menupoints INTERVALL INTERVALL 2 INTERVALL 3 INTERVALL must never be 0, the others may be. If INTERVALL has elapsed, the next start value is those INTERVALL, which is not 0. e.g.: INTERVALL = 10s INTERVALL 2 = 22s If INTERVALL has elapsed, the next countdown will be started with 22 s. If this countdown has elapsed, the next countdown will be started with 10s 20.10.2004 Version V 04.A2 ========================== 1.) PC-TIMER: Now you can set the baudrate also to 9600 and 19200 Baud. 14.10.2004 Version V 04.A1 ========================== 1.) BACKUP, PC-TIMER: precision can be selected by menu. 14.10.2004 Version V 04.9A ========================== 1.) Wenn you output the memory through the menu CLASSEMENT->ALL->PRINT MEMORY, it will also be sent over the rs232 port. 2.) TRAINING REF: At the display unvalid times are better shown. Instead a STN four blanks are visible and a '-' at the channel. When a runner has started, the next STN is not immiatly shown. When the next runner is allowed to start, you can see the arrow, the next STN is shown at the start window 13.10.2004 Version V 04.99 ========================== 1.) PC-TIMER: Was extended Handling and remote commands , see also at file "Timy-Commandset-V14.XLS" 2.) TRAINING REF: default: 2 Measerung points without speed. 29.09.2004 Version V 04.94 ========================== 1.) TRAINING REF: Bug fixed. When connecting the Timy with the TED-RX, at this sequence an error occured: Timy is on, TED-RX is off, when you connect the two devices ==> channel 5 is pulled to LOW, which will be viewed as an timing impulse by the Timy. This bug has been fixed now. Notice: It is not allowed to switch the Timy off and on during the race. Switching off pulls the channel 5 to LOW, which will be view as an timing impuls. If it is required to switch the Timy off and on, please only when no competitor is on the race, and after this you have to press the CLR-button. 22.09.2002 Version V 04.93 ========================== 1.) TRAINING REF: Bug fixed At speed-measuring an addition range check has been built in. Range: 18 km/h <= Speed <= 180 km/h measuring time at 10 m distance 0,2s .. 2,0s Please note: The reference-run must be done correctly. 18.09.2004 Version V 04.91 ========================== 1.) TRACKTIMER: Now there are 4 modes: (GAZ = display board) --------------- a.) lane-mode (channel = lane): works with 8 GAZes, each has 7 digits lane 1 = channel 1 = GAZ 'A' (running time only on GAZ 'A') lane 2 = channel 2 = GAZ 'B' lane 3 = channel 3 = GAZ 'C' lane 4 = channel 4 = GAZ 'D' lane 5 = channel 5 = GAZ 'E' lane 6 = channel 6 = GAZ 'F' lane 7 = channel 7 = GAZ 'G' lane 8 = channel 8 = GAZ 'H' b.) rank-mode: works with 8 GAZes , each has 7 digits rank 1 = GAZ 'A' (running time only on GAZ 'A') rank 2 = GAZ 'B' rank 3 = GAZ 'C' rank 4 = GAZ 'D' rank 5 = GAZ 'E' rank 6 = GAZ 'F' rank 7 = GAZ 'G' rank 8 = GAZ 'H' c.) alternating-mode: works with 1 GAZ, which has 8 digits and no address. d.) standard-mode: as before If you enter a new startnumber and the green OK-button, a new race will be chosen. You can not change to a previous race in order to continue it. You can just scroll in the memory-window, if you have chosen a previous race. But then, the times are displayed in chronologic order only, and you can scroll through the whole race. There is only a ranking if the lanes are at the topical counter-state. For example if all swimmers are going to hit the first time the touch-pad, all runtimes are displayed at the 8 GAZes. But if the fastest swimmer hits the touchpad a second time, then only this runtime is visible on the GAZ, all other GAZes are blank. At a running race, you can scroll through the times only within the topical couunter-state. C0 is the start channel. After having pressed the channel 0, the race has started and channel cannot be pressed again. to c.) alternating-mode: If delaytime is zero, then the user have to press the red OK button, to scroll forward displaying the runtimes on the displayboard. If the delaytime is greater than zero (e.g. 3 s) than, the display board will show the runtime for 3 s, and scroll to the next runtime, if existing, otherwise the running time will be shown. At the GAZ the rank, lane and the time is shown. 2.) NEW PROGRAM: WINDSPEED -------------------------- This program is used with the new anemometer "WINDSPEED WS2". At this stage only one WS2 can be connected to the Timy. The Timy can be remoted by RS232 interface. Baudrate of RS232: 2400 Baud That means that the baudrate of WINDSPEED was automatically set to 2400 Baud. This value will not be saved in the EEPROM. If you change to another program, the old baurate is activated. Baudrate of RS485: 4800 Baud 3.)
