1 Device Description
The ALGE-TIMING Timy3 is a handy device, equipped with high-quality technology.
In spite of the handy dimensions, the Timy3 provides a large and easy-to-use silicone keypad.
The model Timy3 WP has an integrated printer that records the entire competition.
The Timy3 is also equipped with the necessary interfaces for communication with external
devices: interface for display boards, RS232 interface for communication with a computer,
RS485 interface to establish a network of timing devices and future-proof USB interface.
The memory of the Timy3 can store up to 30,000 times which can be shown on the display or
transmitted to a computer by RS232 or USB interface at any time.
The integrated radio modem WTN allows linking the Timy3 via radio with all devices of the
WTN series.
For operating the Timy3 with the internal radio module please also refer to the manual WTN.
1.1 Timy3 Models
Both Timy3 models are equipped with a temperature compensated quartz-oscillator and there-
fore suited for highest accuracy. The extended temperature range allows operating the Timy3
from +50°C until -20°C (for summer and winter sports).
Timy3 W:
Timy3 W is a timing device without printer.
Timy3 WP (Design2):
Timy3 WP is a timing device with integrated printer.

1.2 Timy3 Software
Available programs for the Timy3:
Stopwatch: universal timing program which is suitable for several heats (run/total time)
Backup: to measure time of day times (e. g. as backup-system or as time reference
for the computer)
PC-Timer: to measure time of day times with simultaneous output of the running time
in 1/10 seconds via the RS232 interface; ideal as an accurate timing device
for the computer
LapTimer: timing program with run times and lap times (e. g. for motor sport)
TrackTimer: timing program for events with several lanes, e. g. athletics and swimming
Training Lite: universal training software (several intermediate times are possible)
Training REF: training software with reference run (several competitors on course)
Speed: speed measurement
Commander: terminal for diverse subprograms (see manual)
CycleStart: program for track cycling with countdown and lap counter
Terminal: terminal for judges (e. g. gymnastics)
Track + Field: for measuring the wind speed with anemometer WS2, to control a concen-
tration clock and infield display board
Parallel-Diff: timing for parallel slalom (difference time of both slopes)
Dual Timer: timing of two separate courses
Timeout: timing with timeout, also applicable for show jumping (with start countdown)
Swim Trainer: training program for swimming
Jumping: training program for jump trials, measures jumping height on the basis of
time between jump and landing on a contact mat (several subprograms)
Speed-Climbing: timing for parallel competitions at speed climbing with false start
Start-Liner: to control Startclocks ASC3 or display boards D-LINE when using individual
start time (e.g. Gunderson start)
Parallel-Start: to control and input start doors for opening with a different time delay
TV-Timer:simple timing program for controlling a display board or TV time flashes
Voting: radio judging console (WTN) for judges, voting, etc. (e.g. ski jumping)
Safe Driving 2: to control a display board and speed measurement for driver training
CC False Start: false start detection for cross country skiing sprint events
1.3 Driver Installation
For installation of drivers, separate manuals are available. You can download them from our
website www.alge-timing.com or contact your ALGE-TIMING representative.

1.4 Keypad
The Timy3 has a weather-proof (water-proof) silicone keypad. The keypad is ideal for outdoor
use. The keys are raised and have ideal pressure points. Although the Timy3 is small in di-
mensions, the keys are easy to operate.
Control keys: all-purpose keys; the function of
each one is always visible on the display.
START/ON: manual start impulse and switch on the Timy3
STOP/OFF: manual stop impulse and switch off the Timy3
Printer: paper output; combination and , opens printer menu
2nd: always used in combination with a second key (additional function)
Menu: enter the device menu
CLR: clear the marked times or memory
Cursor: move the cursor in the display
+beginning of a list
+ end of a list
OK green: switch on, confirm commands or start inputs
OK red: switch off, confirm commands or finish inputs

1.5 Display of Timy3
The Timy3 has a display with backlight. The backlight makes reading of the display at bad light
conditions easier. As the backlight consumes energy it is only switched on automatically when
the Timy3 is connected with an external power supply (e. g. PS12A). If you use the Timy3 in
battery mode you can switch on the backlight in the menu.
•Press menu key.
•Select <DISPLAY> with arrow down key.
•Press OK key (red or green).
•Select <Back Light> with arrow down key.
•Press OK key (red or green).
•The display shows:
ENERGY-SAVE: external supply: display back light on (100 % brightness)
battery operation: display back light off
ON: external supply: display back light on (100 % brightness)
battery operation: display back light on (50 % brightness)
AUTOMATIC: After each key stroke or timing impulse the back light is on for 5
seconds.
•Choose desired light function with arrow down key.
•Press OK key (green or red).
•Exit menu by pressing menu key.
