series)
• Packing box designed for storage and transport
• Individual replacement parts available
• 2-year warranty
Specifications
• Adapter Input – 120/240 VAC 50/60Hz
• Light Arc Input/Adapter Output – 24 VDC 200mA
• Power Consumption – Approx. 200mA (100 mA per arc)
Setup
Remove the two light arcs from the box and check the ends to and the power receptacles. They should be installed toward the same side of the chronograph to make a proper connection to the adapter
-
Install the guide wires
-
Install the light arcs on top of the chronograph guide wires
(NOTE: it is important that the rods are not bent, replace if necessary) -
Plug one of the adapter outputs into each of the light arcs
-
Connect the adapter to a 120/240volt AC outlet
-
Note the red “ON” indicator glowing from each light arc
-
You are ready to use the chronograph
Alternative power supply methods when a 120/240-volt outlet is not available:
- A common household portable power pack (also known as an automotive jumpstart box) with an AC outlet can be used as a power source for the included AC adapter.
- A 20-24 volt DC power source, such as two 12 volt batteries connected in a series circuit (shown below).
NOTE: Be sure the adapter is disconnected from the power source
- Cut the wires near the 120/240volt adapter leaving enough length to rejoin if necessary. You may consider installing a suitable connector so you can switch back and forth.
- Install a 1 amp fuse and suitable terminals to make a proper connection to the battery.
- Attach the wires to the batteries as indicated below.
- You will need to do a polarity check to determine which is the negative wire within the cut wiring harness (see below).
- Plug the harness into the light arcs, and note the red “ON” indicator light in each arc.
