We developed a ray timing system that runs automatically with the hare system.
The industry were all shouting for centre green displays. Corals instigated the process suffering bad and good reviews.
Henlow trainers opted for variations of the system. There’s been a deafening silence from the rest of the industry. Let the owners and trainers see what the racing manager sees!
The system @ Corals can give numerous split times, finish time, preprogramed text, temperature, humidity and wireless ability to enter announcements during the meeting. It comes with a 1920mm X 640mm Centre Green Display.
The Hare controller box is linked with the timing box this gives all the race info to the timer, race distance ,position of hare etc.
This is just the start of the development of the system. Every time the hare was used at any track info of the real time of event, distances, split times, finish times and real time end of event. This could be automatically sent via modem to a centralised form bank to check returned information from the racing offices.
Is this going to far ?.
The Corals type system to a track would cost £6500 which would include hare controller, timing system, centre green display and rs232 computer for wireless communication.
