15
Lap Times
Multiple times on the same course, each one Starts
timing again at Zero when the Start/Finish line is crossed
again. One run of the event gets more than one time.
Split Times
Additional times between the Start and the Finish are
recorded at one or more intermediate points.
WHERE ARE THE START AND FINISH POINTS?
IR Beam events. One or more IR Beams are located in
such a way as to Start
and
Stop the timing for the event.
This includes having either the same location for both
Start and Finish using a single IR Beam, or different
Start and Finish locations using two or more IR Beams.
Hybrid events. These events use an automated method
such as an IR Beam to
either
Start
or
Stop timing, but
still need a judge to manually complete Starting or
Stopping with a pushbutton.
Stopwatch type events. These are events where it is
impossible to judge the Start and Stop of the timed event
other than by awareness of a judge or timekeeper, and a
manual pushbutton.
