Operating Procedures for Human Timer

Verify that the eyes are adjusted to the correct jump height at the beginning of the class and with each jump height change. Assuming everything goes normally, the time will automatically start and stop - simply show the time to the scribe to copy

down. If the time does not start, press the HORN key to stop the run before the third obstacle.

If a dog takes the last obstacle out of sequence or if the Timer stops in error, press RESTART on the keypad to resume

timing as if the timer had never been stopped.

If a dog is excused or fails to complete the course, press the START/STOP key to stop the time and report “no time” to the

scribe.

HINTS:

1 - There is no need to clear the time after each run. 2 - If a closed tunnel or a broad jump is the last obstacle, the timer will need to stop the time manually with the

START/STOP key when the dog crosses the finish line.

3 - Use the PREV & NEXT keys to scan back and forth through previous times - this can be done and viewed in the lower

window even while a dog is running.
