Timy3 WP
Timy3 (Design 2)
This measurement took place without the Timy3 supplying external devices (e. g. no supply of
photocells) and for the WP with 3 printed lines per minute.
Battery types:
Alkaline batteries: These batteries must never be used in a Timy3 with integrated printer.
Alkaline batteries can only supply about 10 % of their original capacity at temperatures
of -20 °C. Thus they are only recommendable for warm weather. For environmental reasons it
is also recommendable that rechargeable batteries are used.
NiMH battery pack NM-TIMY2: The NiMH rechargeable battery pack is recommended for
every Timy3. These newly developed batteries dispose of an enormous persistence even at
very low temperatures and can supply a high current for the printer.
Charging:
The rechargeable batteries are charged inside the Timy3 with charger PS12 or PS12A, no
matter if the Timy3 is switched on or off. The charging period with NiMH batteries (NM-TIMY2)
takes with 1.5 Ah approx. 14 hours.
Charging Switch:
The Timy3 has got a switch (hidden behind the
battery label) for switching on or off the rechargea-
ble battery charging.
Using alkaline batteries, the charging must be
switched off - position ALKALI -, as otherwise the
batteries may leak.
During the operation with rechargeable batteries,
the switch should be on position NiCd/NiMH so that
the rechargeable batteries are charged.
Attention: Never use alkaline batteries in a
Timy3 when the charging switch is set
to NiCd/NiMH and a charger is connected.
Operating period:
The operating period depends on the Timy3 model, the batteries utilized and the ambient tem-
perature.

4 Synchronizing
The Timy3 can be synchronized with an ALGE-TIMING GPS-receiver GPS-A with the exact time
of day. It is also possible to synchronize the Timy3 with other Timy3 or other timing devices
(e.g TdC8001).
4.1 GPS Synchronization
It is possible to synchronize the Timy3 with a GPS mouse (GPS-TY). The synchronization can
be carried out in all Timy programs and is accurate to a 1/10,000 second.
•The GPS mouse (picture: GPS 18LVC) needs no exter-
nal power supply.
•The RS232 baud rate of the Timy3 has to be set to 9600
baud.
•In the menu <channels> the item <TED-RX> has to be
deactivated.
•The GPS synchronizes the Timy3. After this the Timy3
runs with its own precision quartz and the GPS can be
disconnected. The GPS mouse can now be used to
synchronize further devices.
Instead of the time of day setting, the display shows as
indicated on the right. As long as it says “NO SIGNAL”, the
GPS receiver is searching for satellites.
When “OK -UTC +UTC NO” is displayed in the bottom
line, the time for your region can be adjusted with keys
and . As soon as the correct time is shown, press
.
Attention!
After receipt of a valid GPS signal, the Timy3 verifies the checksum and measures the dura-
tion of the sync signal. If the sync signal is erroneous, the Timy3 carries out a reset. Thus, it is
impossible to generate an invalid sync time. If the Timy3 is supplied by external power, it au-
tomatically restarts. In case of operation with internal power, the Timy3 turns off and has to be
restarted.
Remove the GPS receiver from the Timy3. Press to
start the selected program.
4.2 Synchronization of Timy3 from another Timing Device
The Timy3 can be synchronized via your start channel C0 from any ALGE-TIMING timing de-
vice. You can also synchronize multiple timing devices at the same time.
•connect Timy3 with cable 000-xx or 004-xx to other timing device(s)
•switch on Timy3
•clear or save memory
•set the time of day at which the synchronization takes place and confirm with <OK>
•set the date and confirm with <OK>
•trigger start (can be with the <START> key of the Timy3 or by short-outing the start
line, e.g. with push button or start gate)

Manual
Timy3 - General
-16-
•check if all timing devices started
•trigger the start again and check if the start time is the same for all devices
•disconnect the sync cable if the start times were the same
4.3 Synchronization of other Devices with Timy3 by Cable
The Timy3 can send a synchronization signal via channel 0
every full minute when using the programs BACKUP or PC-
TIMER.
•Connect the Timy3 with the device to be synchronized.
•Enter the time of day (next full minute) to be synchro-
nized at the device.
•Press and hold both keys, the green and red OK key of
the Timy3. On the full minute the Timy3 sends a syn-
chronization impulse. The time of day of the other tim-
ing device must now run.

4.4 Synchronization of Timy3 to Timy3 by WTN
It is possible to synchronize the Timy3 from another Timy3 via WTN. For this, the devices
must be set to WTN mode and within radio range. There are two ways for synchronization.
Adjustment:
•press button
•move cursor with to <GENERAL>
•enter menu <GENERAL> by pressing
•move cursor with to <SYNC>
•enter menu <SYNC> by pressing
•move cursor with to <OVER WTN>
•enter menu <OVER WTN> by pressing
•select with key :
<SYNC OFF>
<PASSIVE> (factory setting)
<ACTIVE>
<ACTIVE PER MIN.>
4.4.1 WTN Synchronization Switched Off <SYNC OFF>
Timy3 does not output or read a synchronization time.
4.4.2 Passive Synchronization by WTN <PASSIVE>
The Timy3 can read and resume synchronization times from other Timy3. If the time
deviation is more than 0.0005 seconds, the new time of day must be confirmed or re-
jected at the passive Timy3.
4.4.3 Single Synchronization Output <ACTIVE>
The active Timy3 that executes the synchronization outputs the time of day to all pas-
sive Timy3 once.
4.4.4 Synchronization Output every Minute <ACTIVE PER MIN.>
The active Timy3 that executes the synchronization outputs the time of day to all pas-
sive Timy3 every minute.

5 Connection of Auxiliary Devices
A wide range of devices can be operated with the Timy3. Please ask your ALGE-TIMING repre-
sentative for the possibilities.
5.1 Channels
The Timy3 has nine independent timing channels.
Attention: Channels 0 to 5 have a maximum precision of 1/10,000 seconds but channel 6 to 8
only 1/100 seconds.
5.2 Delay and Block Times
The variable delay and block times prevent generating double impulses and loosing impulses.
The delay and block times can be changed in the menu.
5.2.1 Delay Time
After triggering an impulse, further impulses of the same impulse channel are disabled for the
duration of the delay time.
Default settings: start channel C0 1.0 s
stop channel C1 to C9 0.3 s
5.2.2 Block Time
The block time is the theoretic minimum interval between two valid impulses of the same
channel. Impulses within the block time are saved as invalid. The block time is only supported
by certain programs.
That is to say, for an interval start of 30 seconds the minimum clearance is approx. 20 sec-
onds. Thus the block time is 20 seconds, too.
5.3 Diagram of Delay and Block Time
∆t timing channel triggered
1 timing channel is triggered – valid time is saved – block time starts
2 end of impulse – delay time starts
3 timing channel is triggered within the delay time – no impulse triggering
4 end of impulse – delay time restarts
5 timing channel is triggered within the block time – invalid time is saved but not printed
6 end of impulse – delay time starts
7 timing channel is triggered – valid time is saved – block time starts
