... and the Answers |
| What do I get when I order a 2700 series XL Wireless system?

| Can I upgrade my 2600, 2650, 2800, or 2850 to the 2700 XL Wireless?
| All 2600 and 2650 XL Advanced models as well as 2800 and 2850 XL Professional models can be upgraded to the 2700 XL Wireless timing system. In general, your existing tree, start beams, 60FT and Finish beams can all be reused with an upgrade to the 2700 XL Wireless. Pricing varies based on what features already exist on the customer's current equipment and timing system. A great way to reinvest in your timing system and add more features. |
| What options can I add to the 2700 XL Wireless system?
| The XL Wireless allows 60 foot ET's, Mid-Track Speed & ET, and FInish Line Speed & ET and any combination of these. Upgrading and adding more features later is as easy as plugging in the new features. The Wireless Timing System automatically recognizes the changes to the system hardware. |
| What do I need to do to print timeslips?
| The 2700 XL Wireless includes the capability to print timeslips with custom 4-line headers. Timeslip Printers can be connected locally to the 2700 Timer Console in the tower or through a Wireless Link. Wireless Printers require no external power with all power supplied by the T-Link Wireless unit. Everyone who races could walk away with your name and phone number on their timeslip! |
| What staging options do I have with the 2700 system??
| The 2700 XL Wireless system can connect to Single Beams at the start line for Staging or a selection of Dual and Tri beams. Combinations of Pre-stage & Stage or Stage and Guard or Pre-stage & Stage & Guard are fully compatible with the 2700. |
| Can the 2700 XL Wireless be used as a single lane timer for car performance tuning?

| What if my track length is not a standard length?
| The beauty of the Wireless Drag Timing System is the flexibility to place the Finish Beams anywhere on the track. Track length can be changed for each event and each track and the Speed Trap length is changed by a simple software configuration change through the 2700 Timer Console's keypad. |
