About the Tx Track Pro

Tx Track Pro is the versatile transmitter with large detection field of the Freelap system.
The Tx Track Pro can be quickly set as START, LAP, or FINISH transmitter. It emits a magnetic field automatically detected by your transponder during its passage.

Use of the Tx Track Pro

Prerequisites
Tx Track Pro transmitter is a part of the Freelap timing system. To get your timing data, you must attach the transponder(s) to the athlete(s) and use the MyFreelap app (cf corresponding user manuals).
Get to know your device
Turn it on
To turn on the transmitter, press the “Power” button for 2 seconds.
The green led lights up to indicate that the transmitter is on.
Set the desired code
Once the transmitter is on, make short presses on the “Power” button to select the desired code (START = for start transmitter/ LAP = for intermediate transmitter/ FINISH
= for finish transmitter). Each short press of the “Power” button switches you to the next code. The LED of the selected code flashes.
Place it on the track
• Place the Tx Track Pro on the ground.
The transmitter has a detection field of 3m on each side, it must be placed as follows:
• This transmitter has the shape of an arrow. Place the transmitter on the side of the track, pointing the front of the arrow toward the track. The direction of the arrow indicates an imaginary line of passage.
• Place the transmitter at less than 3m of the athlete’s passage (so that the transponder of the athlete crosses the detection field).
• For skiing, it can also be placed under the snow in the middle of the finish area to increase the detection field (6m).
Placing the transmitter at any other location or position may result in inaccuracies or non-detection.
Example for ski / standard system :
Example for MTB / system in loop :
Associate it with other Freelap transmitters
To make the Freelap system work, you must have a transmitter set on the code FINISH on your track.
The Tx Track Pro is a versatile transmitter, so you can use several Tx Track Pro on your track (set as START, LAP or FINISH transmitter).
You can also use it in combination with other Freelap transmitters (eg. : you can use the Tx Gate Pro transmitter as START transmitter for skiing).
Transmitters must be at least 0.7 second apart.
Your track must contain a maximum of 11 transmitters.
