FREQUENTLYASKEDQUESTIONS

Question: What is the difference between Auto, Manual, Freestyle and RFID modes?

Answer: Select the running mode according to how you would like to run the session -

- Auto - the PDAsoftware will automatically call up the next player in alphanumeric order

- Manual - the operator must choose who is next using the “TRACKS” tab, and then press GO for each athlete

- Freestyle - results are displayed on the “RESULTS” tab, but not saved (used for training only when results do not need to be saved)

- RFID - athlete selection is based on identification via the SMARTSCAN RFID wrist band system

Question: Do I need to save my data at the end of each session?

Answer: No. The data is automatically saved to the database as it is recorded. The operator can choose to export the results at the end of the session, by

choosing the “Review the session training result in table form” button, or the data can be retrieved and exported later using the “View - Results” menu on the main

SMARTSPEED start screen.

Question: What is the battery life of the system, and how long does it take to recharge?

Answer: Generally the life of the PDA is approximately 4.5 hours, and the remote units 5-6 hours depending on the drills being used. The system can be fully

recharged in approximately 3 hours. Fusion Sport recommends that the system is always charged for 3 hours or overnight prior to each session. The units do not

need to be fully depleted prior to charging and will not develop “memories” from frequent charging.

Question: What do I do if I have problems with the system?

Answer: Firstly, consult the TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE in this manual, or visit the Fusion Sport website for further tutorials, knowledge base, and support

assistance. If you are unable to solve the problem, contact your local distributor or email [email protected]

TROUBLESHOOTINGGUIDE-SOFTWAREPROBLEMS

Precautions When Using Batteries

• Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any way

• Use the battery only for its intended purpose

• If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time

• Always charge in or as close to room temperature (20 degrees Celsius) as extreme temperatures will affect the charging capacity of the batteries

• If Batteries will not recharge (batteries provided have a recharge life of 800 times), DO NOTATTEMPT to change the batteries yourself. Instead contact your local service

provider.

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from

the units.

Pacemakers:Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum of 15cm should be maintained between the units and a pacemaker.

Hearing Aids: Some wireless technology can interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may wish to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to

discuss alternatives.

Other Medical Devices

If you use other personal medical devices, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your Physician may be

able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Vehicles

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your

vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

Switch of all units in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in

bodily injury or even death.

Users are advised to switch off all units while at a refueling point (service station). Users are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in

fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution areas), chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked. They include below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles

using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane), areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders, and any other area

where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
