To ensure that your Freelap TRACK & FIELD Timing System is set up correctly for your track and field training session, follow these key steps and requirements:
1. **Verify Equipment Compatibility:** Ensure you are using the recommended Freelap devices for your specific sport, such as the FxChip BLE transponder and the appropriate transmitters (Tx Junior Pro, Tx Touch Pro, or e-Starter).
2. **Check App and Device Updates:** Make sure you have the latest version of the MyFreelap app installed on your mobile device. Additionally, ensure that your Freelap devices, including chips and LED Display, have the latest updates available using the Freelap Device Manager app.
3. **Proper Chip Attachment:** Attach the FxChip BLE transponder to the athlete's waist using the provided attachment clip. Position it vertically and centered in alignment with the navel.
4. **Transmitter Setup:** Turn on the transmitters (Tx Junior Pro, Tx Touch Pro, or e-Starter) and set them to the correct codes (START, LAP, FINISH) as per your training configuration (Flying Start or Start Block).
5. **Transmitter Placement:** Ensure the transmitters are correctly placed on the ground at the specified distances from the athlete's path. The START transmitter should be positioned at the start line, LAP transmitters at intermediate points (if needed), and the FINISH transmitter at the finish line.
6. **Course Configuration:** Confirm that your course does not exceed 11 transmitters, and each transmitter is at least 10 meters apart. Athletes must pass within 1.5 meters of each transmitter during the session.
7. **Mobile Device Positioning:** Place your mobile device running the MyFreelap app at least 1 meter off the ground near the FINISH transmitter. Ensure Bluetooth and Location services are activated on your device.
8. **Workout Setup:** Create a new Workout in the MyFreelap app, enter the necessary details, and select the appropriate Exercise and timing method (Standard or Roster) based on your training requirements.
9. **Data Collection and Synchronization:** Start your Workout, collect data during the session, and ensure that data is automatically saved locally on the app. If online, data will be synchronized to your MyFreelap Web account; if offline, synchronize data once an internet connection is available.
By following these steps and verifying the checklist provided in the user guide, you can ensure that your Freelap timing system is set up correctly for accurate timing and data collection during your track and field training sessions.
