2. Presenting the ibutton at position n°01
The communication with the ibutton is usually so fast that it looks instantaneous.
However at Position n° 01, the rally timer will clean all the ibutton memory from old data and the communication will
take a few tenths of a seconds. The best way to present the ibutton is to insert it in the reader and exert a slight lateral
pressure to make a good contact with the external ring and STAY STILL (don’t move) until the transmission is
completed. The ‘HOLD’ message will appear until data transmission is completed.
3. Low battery warning on the Rally Timer
If the Low Battery warning appears (LO) on the top right of the display, the battery can be replaced without losing the
time if you insert the new battery within 15 seconds.

4. Start Mode
The Rally Timer can be configured to allow a start every minute at xx:xx:00 , every minute at xx:xx:30, every 30
seconds and every 20 seconds.
When the competitor arrives to the start line, the
marshal presents the ibutton to the Rally Timer.
In a fraction of a second, the Start time is recorded
into the ibutton and appears on the display for 3
seconds.
The Start Time is the time the marshal is allowed to
leave the competitor to go.
Five seconds before start time, the Rally Timer begins a
countdown.
The red led switches ON and the Rally Timer emits an audible
signal every second.
At the end of the countdown, the red led turns green
and the marshal can leave the competitor to go.
If for any reason, the competitor was unable to go,
the ibutton can be presented to the Rally Timer again
and the previous data will be overwritten.
5. Time Control Mode
The marshal presents the ibutton to the Rally Timer.
In a fraction of a second, the time is recorded into the ibutton and
appears on the display for 3 second
