The
ALGE Startclock ASC1 is a micro-processor controlled timing device with
analogue and digital display, for the release of regular start intervals.
Start
interval:
From
11 seconds to 9 minutes 59 seconds
Tolerance
Time:
The
time span in witch a start has to occur can be selected in second intervals
separated in minus and plus. A light indicator signals status. Green in,
red out of tolerance.
Start
Deviation:
Automatically
with the time measurement, the deviation is calculated and displayed.
Acoustical
Countdown:
By
pressing a button or at regular variably selectable time intervals, a ready
tone is audible 10 seconds before the start. 4 seconds before the start,
the acoustical countdown begins.
Easy
Operation:
The
most often used programs (start intervals with accompanying tolerance time)
are fixed programmed and very easily set in mode. Your own “special program”
however, can be stored with equally easy access thereafter.
Contact
Output:
With
the start tone the clock provides a start impulse (normally open) to trigger
the main timing or the connection to a start gate.
Synchronisation:
Can
be synchronized with other timing systems either manually or external impulse.
Remote
Control:
With
the remote control ASC-Tele functions of the start clock can be changed
remotely.
e.g.
shut off the countdown or change of start interval.
Back
Up Timing:
The
ALGE Startclock ASC1 is an ideal back up timer. The 3 incorporated input
channels allow the connection of start gates, photcells, and/or push buttons.
Starts, intermediate, and finish times are recorded to a precision of 1/1000
seconds.
Memory:
All
data are automatically written to the memory and available for protocol
even after the clock has been turned off and back again.
Protocol:
All
measured times as well as the start deviations can be permanently recorded
with a connected printer (e.g. ALGE Printer P4) during or after the race.
PC
Interface:
A
RS 232 interface allows the connection of a PC for data processing.
