Freelap Tx Gate Pro Sports Timing System
Welcome to Freelap World!
Congratulation in thinking outside the box and providing your team with a tool that will truly maximize their training experience!
HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Freelap® timing system is based on the emission and detection of electromagnetic fields and consists mainly of four elements:
TRANSMITTERS
Placed along the course, they are coded (START, LAP or FINISH) and emit
electromagnetic fields.
CHIP
Worn by the skier, it detects the pulses of electromagnetic fields as the
skier passes the transmitters, and measures time intervals between each
transmitter.
RELAY
Placed after the FINISH transmitter, it receives the data from the chip and
automatically transmits it via Bluetooth to your mobile device.
MYFREELAP APP
When the skier passes a transmitter in FINISH mode, the timing data is
automatically recorded and instantly transmitted via Bluetooth to your mobile
device via MyFreelap app. Data can also be synchronized, checked and exported
on a computer via your myfreelap.com account.
