Theory of Operation
The Iridium System is a complete timing system for Radio Controlled Cars. The transponders use infrared technology, An overhead bar is placed at the start/finish line approximately 22 inches above the track with sensor modules placed every 14 inches. When a transponder passes underneath it will be detected and its ID will be sent to the PC. All 14 transponders can pass through simultaneously and all of them will be detected and counted.
Installation
The overhead sensor units are interconnected with the 12 inch cables supplied. Use as many overhead units as required for the width of your track. One to thirty overhead units can be used. The orientation or which jack is used on the overhead unit does not matter. The overhead units are connected to the lap counting decoder with the included 20 foot cable. The interface board is connected to the PC via the included USB cable.
Transponders
Transponders are powered by the R/C receiver battery. You would normally plug into an unused servo channel. It may be mounted in the windshield area or by having a clear area in the front hood of the car it would be possible to mount the transponder there.
